Very interesting game. I love how well it fits in with the theme, and the premise is very neat. I also dig the graphics style and audio.

A little abstract, but still good. I like the pixel art on this one and the general concept.

Really cool idea, I feel like the 10 second limit isn't enough to be able to weigh the decision between feeding your family and yourself, but I guess that's the point

I died like three times in a row before realizing that it's a bad idea to come at the deer from the front. I'm bad.

Wow. Great game! And it's really well thought! :D
It's kinda the point, but it's really hard to make the deer go where you want... Most of the time, it went through the camp because I didn't come exactly from the side... >_<

So simple, but interesting. The art style is really neat. I found it very difficult to find the deer- very difficult over all actually ha ha
Great concept though.

Nice premise, the sprites look good and the sound, though simple, works really well with the game.

Nice work!

Arrrgh... I loved this game a lot - but it was just too frustrating. There was no clue as to where the deer were, so my I didn't feel like it mattered what I did in terms of movements.. just walked randomly. And then there was no way to know how to get back.

This made for an interesting and poignant message: but also meant I rage quit after a few plays. I feel like if the difficulty "ramped up" rather than just throwing you in the deep end, it could be an amazing and addictive experience.

I gave you all 4 and 5's except for fun. I think if you "fun"-ed it up a 15% it would be perfect.

Nice art! I think time moved slightly too quickly for me to actually have any hope of feeding us all, which was pretty frustrating, but maybe that's what you meant, great little game ;)

I made it 9 days, not sure if that's good or not :) Liked the art and theme but wasn't really sure what to do other than kill and eat.

Hard to find food but I loved the art style audio and general idea!

I like the pixel art style. The game needs a little more variety besides just trying to find deer though.
