I loved this one! To me, doing straight top-down is always a bit tricky to make things look right. But you managed that really well, the players animation feels good! I think you could have used the different layers (that you use for the trees) also in the other levels, as some decoration or such.

The gameplay was good, I liked the idea of sneaking and it worked very well with the obstacles to hide behind. Something like a view radius for the enemies could have been nice, if that would have been possible to implement.

Anyways, great jam game. Well done! :)

Edit: I forgot to mention the athmosphere. That was really on point. Nice use of the shadows and the limited colors!

This Game is so good 10/10

Wow, really great game with awesome atmosphere

Nice. The switch in mood caught me by surprise (in a cool way)  when you suddenly fall out of the peaceful forest. That alarm sound is really creepy.

Would suggest making the gameplay a little less slow. Because although there's tension it's still slow enough to be a little boring. But cool creation regardless.
