Nice and solid. I like the natural idea of scaling by people arming themselves in response to rampages.

It's fun, but kinda hard. I like the idea though.

This is really good - I like it. Once they start getting armed it becomes very difficult but still enjoyed it.

Very difficult once they start arming themselves. Could be neat with some more work!

Nice job, I think the controls could be better, but other then that, it was nice.

It's pretty fun, but enemies can shoot through walls, which can be irritating once the hunters start showing up. It can be tough to tell who is armed and who isn't until you're close, but the progression is pretty good

I do agree the controls are a bit difficult to work with, though I will admit I have trouble getting controls to work well myself.

It is a nice game and a really good base to improve it (if you wanted :P). I like the game mechanics, simple but direct. Maybe it would have been nice to add more wolf animation when walking, or hide inside houses with a ceiling, and just when you enter uncover them. But these are just ideas :). It gets hard when inhabitants shoot arrows, nearly impossible to avoid :S

The first night is a little easy, I felt like the people should have run away or something. After that it becomes more challenging. Good entry.

Pretty good graphics. The game quickly gets hard after the first stage.
I think the wolf could've used some walking animations.

Sorry, I can't play this. If you have time, please recompile using the XNA "reach" profile so it can run on pre-DX11 cards.

Sorry about that, it's been updated using the "reach" profile.

That was really cool.

Got pretty much instantly killed by an archer though.

What I think would be really awesome is if you turned back into a human, had another 100 seconds where guys investigated, and if they found you in some dead person's house they'd try and kill you, until you turned back into a wolf and tried to maul them etc.

But yeah, for 48 hours this was really cool. The turning motion was really fluid, idea was solid. Nice one.

Nice playable game. A bit more environment interaction would have been nice.

Liked the difficulty increase as days increase. Needs wandering peasants as peasants stuck in corners is kind of boring.

Hm, this is odd, I walked through 2 levels and there is no one else beside me. I made a sweep of the whole map and there are no NPCs..
