Good stuff! It needs more charm like typing text effect and more nature sound effects, but this has potential! I wrote a review giving some more feedback, good luck!

This was pretty simple but very ominous. It has a chill vibe but you can feel like something is wrong from the beginning. I like the story and the interactions with the npc especially with the spirit when we find out the true reason for us feeling the way we feel. I'm wondering what the whole meaning of the end was.  I kind of gave my thoughts at the end but i could be completely. Overall this was a good experience as usual and I enjoyed playing this. Keep up the good work.

Huge thanks for playing and supporting my work man, I really, really like your videos and your editing style. All the best to you and hope to bring more spooks, very soon 😏

What a solid little game this was!

Amazing atmosphere and nice graphics for sure. Really awesome especially the color grading. The story was also really top notch and quite well done even if done for a short experience. Was really well put together for sure. Overall, solid game! Made a video on it.

A new game trailer of yours actually popped up on my YouTube feed ;) Once again, something completely unique both graphically and thematically. I spent way too much time running around the forest... whether it was to explore everything... yeah, okay, I got lost ;) I'm really curious to see how this prototype/demo turns out in the end. Great job!

Huge thanks for checking out the game! For the donations, support and all - you are one of a kind. Deeply appreciate all of that. Cheers!
