Hello, we're Fred and Mei and this is our first time participating in Ludum Dare...!

We've gone for a "survival horror" + language app game: Trapped in the Norwegian wilderness you have to take a crash course in Norwegian to be able to effectively communicate your location when radioing out for help. However, with something lurking in the woods attracted to the light from your phone, this might not be so easy....

We had a lot of fun working on this game — it's only our second game overall, and our first time working with Unity. The software being unfamiliar to us, we hit a lot of snags along the way — one of the biggest being that the in-game text is pretty hard to read, a problem that didn't present itself until it was too late to fix. For a mostly text-based game that's a pretty bad snag, and something we would have definitely addressed had we had more time.

Still, we think we put in a valiant effort and we hope you'll give the game a try....! Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Big thanks, Mei and Fred
