Hey SSO & ShatteredReality!
Cool little submission with a fun and unique art style!
A couple notes after playing:
- I didn't run into the monster that much, I did have to go seek it out but it took a little bit because I think he was walking in the opposite direction of me the whole time -- haha. Not that big of a deal. I was just expecting him to hunt me down and try to kill me
- There were a few times where I ran into strange colliders on the trees. Most trees I could walk behind, but then there were some where I wasn't able to walk behind them. Again, not a huge deal, just thought you should know!
What I liked:
- The art style was really fun! I liked the hand drawn aesthetic. It added a ton of charm and I just wish there was more, but totally understand the time limitations
- I thought the fire mechanic was really cool! I loved that I could be a fire bender and hunt down monsters in the dark. Like others have said, it would have been really cool to be able to set the trees or branches on fire in order to channel more energy. Very cool mechanic though.
Totally understand the feeling of not feeling like you achieved your goals prior to the deadline, but it is super impressive that you made a game in a week, released it, and now can get feedback and learn from the whole process! Great job :D Can't wait to see where y'all go from here.
