What I am about to say I am saying out of criticism and experience to this game, I am not in any way trashing your game, this was made 2 years ago and I'm certain your skills in game design have improved greatly since this project, but my opinion towards this project in particular is mostly negative in its current state.
My biggest plight I have with this game is that there's no objectives or indication of what to do, only referenced in dialog that can be easily ignored or sped through. I also found it weird that I had to alternate between E and F to interact with certain elements and the fact that there was no indication to interact with some of the said elements like the NPCs and the flashlight. It took me over 20 minutes to figure out how to interact and progress passed the first segment.
Admittedly after almost an hour of wandering I started getting frustrated with this experience, and when when I died to the pig guy the second time I just gave up.
Again this isn't to be mean-spirited, I wholeheartedly understand that it takes a lot of time and effort to make a game, and I want to see your skills shine
This was the third game I played in a stream, I will say that after understanding the strategy, the game was a bit too easy. I would certainly try to create obstacles so that way its harder to survive the night, such as sudden moments where the candle is snuffed out so you are forced to use a match, making the matches harder to spot, or illusions that mess with the time limit, making it slower or losing an hour when confronting them. Because most of the game I was pacing around the map and won with several matches to spare. I do apologize if I am coming off as harsh, that's not my intention, I just think there needs to be more of a challenge.
