Cool concept and a nice take on the theme. I liked the idea of using your tracks to trap the wolf.

I like the idea. And the puzzles were challenging too.
My zoom didn't work though and I guess that's what leave me stuck on a level.

I really liked this game, I think I managed to cheat by constantly having the camera zoomed out to the max and following the player xD

I managed to complete it but took me two attempts on the last level because the wolf wouldn't reset his pathing, they're learning!

Really great use of the theme ♥

Haha interesting use of the theme ! Wolfs following your footprints are such a cool mechanic :D The game just need some flavor music, sound effects, animation etc. I would like to play again if you work on it. Well done !

Woah! Great use of the theme leaving the camera behind. The mechanic of making the zoom only work when the camera is no longer following made it so much more intense especially when the wolf charged at you. With such cute art it was also somehow terrifying!

This one was quite the experience. 

I really like what you did with the camera, the idea of switching between 2 different modes depending on the situation. When that wolf first came running at me i didn't see it coming at all, it felt like a jumpscare (In a good way!).  I love the stealth element with leaving behind your tracks and being followed because of them, i don't recall seeing a simillar mechanic in any game i played before. The graphics are simple and cute, my only complaint would be the lack of animation for walking. 

 Overall, it's a very nice game.

This is a nice entry. It had good progression and the peril of the wolves following your tracks was interesting. I would have really liked some audio. The way the footprints were left was my highlight. Good job.

Congratulations on submitting as a solo dev. I also did, and it's hard work! An interesting, if a little frustrating, mechanic with the unlocking camera to zoom out and investigate the levels. I got stuck on the fourth level. I guess there is something to do with the tracks I'm leaving, but I can't work out if they affect the wolf or not.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks working as a solo dev can be tough but really rewarding. The idea of the game is that the wolf follows your tracks if they see them. The trick to level four which I don't think I made clear enough is that when you pull one of the levers a pile of snow falls onto the path and covers your footprints which means the wolf can't follow you anymore. Thanks for playing

Really cute style game and I love the way you can look around by zooming out.

Awesome game! I love how cute the chick is hahahaha. The puzzle is really well thought and the feeling of being scared is there because of the wolf. Great use of movement and camera mechanics in these puzzle. Would be greate if there is a sound or a music that will intensify the mood of the player of probably relaxing to calm down the player while trying to escape. Over all, it was a fun game. :D

Thanks for the feedback. Having dynamic music would be a really cool idea if I work on this game further it would be an awesome idea to implement. I'm really glad you liked the puzzles in the game. Thanks for playing

Cute game! I love the little footsteps that the little chick caused, and the design of both the chick and the wolf were very cute. I wound up getting stuck on level five because I couldn't work out how to progress, but I played the rest of the game and thought it was simple, but nice game nonetheless. I do wish that there had been music or some other sounds (if there was and I didn't notice, please tell me!), because I think it would have added a lot, though. I also found that I didn't need to use the camera unlock mechanic, because when I did, the chick would slip out of sight and I couldn't keep tabs on them. Like I said, it was a cute game overall, and I liked the "chase in a maze" idea you had going!

Good work!

Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately I ran out of time for adding sound effects so there is none but I agree sound effects would add a lot to the game. I'm really glad you enjoyed the game thank you
