Wow.. You may be the first, and definitely are the first who recorded it all. Huge props! Thank you for playing and enjoying the game!!

Next patch will include bait only being consumed by fishes, actually. :)

Next patch will have this. :)

Sure, if people trust your files are working and safe, go ahead.

If a Steam release happens, Itch.io version will receive its updates, too. (Expect for things like Steam Achievements, etc.)

Next patch will include this.

I'll get it to work with arrow keys in the next patch.

Done.

I'll look into it!

The current price remains with some free updates planned.

I wrote that up. Good catch!

After unpacking the Zip/Rar file into a folder of your choice, you can right click on the launch (.exe) file to create a shortcut. You can drag this new shortcut icon to your desktop!

Thank you for your feedback. :)

Every item is available on ship at the beginning, with the expection of energy bars.

When an update happens, events will probably be the main focus and I want to give some items more purpose, instead of adding more of them.

Captain Whiskers true identity may be a secret for now...

The game currently is balanced in a way that most runs should last about as much as you survive now, getting further is harder on purpose.

In an Update I do wonder if players would want to play more and short runs for ending hunting or have their runs last longer easier but with the events repeating more frequently. (Which currently I felt would be a drag.)

Thank you so much for telling your experience (or about as much as you were comfortable sharing without spoilers)!

I'd be more than happy to add new events. Creating them wouldn't be the hardest part, it's making sure they are balanced against all the already existing ones. We will see!

I'm interested to see what the final "best items to use/get" spreadsheet will look like from the players' perspective.

As for Mac, it could be a thing if I made it to Steam, which is now not the first focus, First I want this version to be polished.

I'm taking a small vacation after this release of mine, but after that, I may do some additions to the game. I need to watch people play to know what they want to see. :)

Probably not, unfortunately.

With demand, it is possible. At the moment however, only on Itch.

They do. :)

Thank you for the kind words! :)

I like how it lets me play after the timer ends, without scores obviously but i love finding patterns.

Correction: The [E] prompt says to interact with things. It was my bad :)

[Long Post]
Hopeful for this game, cool ideas!
I really want this game to be successful, so as a dev myself I wanna give my opinion with detailed reasoning after watching the trailer and playing through the demo. (Of course, that's only my opinion, also i have not worked on movement shooters yet!)

Pros:
- Most of the mechanics are relatively polished, I really liked kicking around and shooting up a bunch of paper dudes.
- Kicking exploding barrels and bombs are the best. Really captivates that dopamine kick when you do it nicely. (Is there a bit of help where the barrel lands? It so, it feels really natural and awesome, as for my experience playing the demo)
- The graphics and theme is really unique, fun, and manages to be a bit scary while also being goofy enough to enjoy.
- Only one actual dynamic music yet, but it is really complementing the bigger fight waves, giving you that Doom rush when you hear it :)
- I got interested in the stickman dude. What could they be up to...?

Cons: (more like, needs polishing)
- Quality of tutorials are inconsistent a bit. Some mechanics are explained perfectly, but for an example, there is a prompt [E] to close notes (as I remember), but it was not shown for sharpening the pencil, I was stuck there for a minute to get it the first time.
Two abilities were a bit hidden, 1: jumping higher from a crouch, i discovered it accidentally, 2: sliding below enemies to kick them up in the air (I only knew this from watching the trailer a second time after finishing the demo)

- The pencil's hacking needs to be more fun, i expected more doors and secret passages to draw instead of the security panel hacks. (Finding, erasing, then rewriting the panel is many steps for a single door, which is good for 1 puzzle, then becomes a hassle when faced more times, but hey, this is just the demo!)

Not really cons, but my other opinions: [SPOILERS]
- I actually had no problem with the long times between fights, The only thing i was bummed about is that the demo ended without a last big fight. (There was like a solid 5-10 minutes of not-shooting then game ended, me expecting a last fight at the huge room)
- The game's story was really the most interesting with it's enviromental storytelling, and events (glitches, stickman dude), not the notes thrown around. But hey, they are also just optional to read so that's nice :)

Hoping to have a nice release my dude, i want to see more cardboard dudes get blown up!

Luckily for you, there is also a zip file which somehow missed your eyes. 

Also, the price shown is only suggested. You are able to pay whatever you think is worth the product, be it $1, $10, or $0. 

Sorry this was an utter shock to you.

Thank you for the kind words Kuya!

Thanks for the opinion, and the video!

Enjoyed the video. Thanks so much

Much thanks!

Thanks for the comment and video :)

Thank you!!

💕💕💕💕💕

Thank you!

Thank you for your comment and video!

That was my thought process too. :) Thank you for the comment!

Thank you!!

Hahah! Thank you!

This is all I know to try:

1. Redownload the file using a different Browser
2. Clear the temporary files (From your PC)
   
3. Do an AntiVirus scan if other files than mine are also affected (.rar or .zip)
4. Update/Reinstall WinRar

Thank you for playing! My honest apologies for the glitch at the end :(
You were right about what should have you done, though!
Great video!

Really enjoyed your game, it has a nice atmosphere, and interesting characters!

The only issue I had with the game, is that the directions were a bit unclear sometimes. (For example, when we get to look at the map, the highlighted road to the woods, is barely visible on the actual road, would love to see a crosswalk or something else on it, to make it more apparent!)

Nevertheless you made a great game, It was quite intriguing.
