A Lost Child by Klaus Peter
This is a game where you help a small child find the way home. Of course a lot of evil monsters will try to stop you from that.
That's how you meet.
And that are the evil monsters.

Controls: * WASD or arrow keys - for movement * space, enter or "E" - for interaction with people and objects
Some info about the night with the monsters: * the night takes 2 minutes * the more square your browser window is, the better you will be able to see the monsters approaching (refresh the website to update the size of the game)
I tested the game in Firefox and Chrome and it somehow worked better in Chrome

I really like what you did with the playable intro and the cinematic cutscenes, it really helps creating a good atmosphere for your game.
👍pretty nice concept!
- the colors and the art
- gameplay was simple and controls easy to grasp
What was missing:
- movement animations for the main character
- any score indicator or indicator for when (or if) the night was ending
The game did not work in firefox for me. Nonetheless, congrats on finishing a great game :)
I like the character design.
Shame you didn't have the time to write the wood gathering part.
How long does the night last? They never stopped coming!
@peto184 Thanks for the feedback. Personally I would have liked to add animations but I spent too much time on the trees xD
@majadroid I agree that the feels empty without sound. I just have very little experience in making music or creating sounds.
@xeke-death The night is 2 minutes long. I wanted it to be a bit challlenging :P
Best line ever, thats pretty much every gamejam in a nutshell :D
But hey good work!
:purple_heart: :dart: :frog:
Controls are ok, but sometimes I get stuck with either the fire or the kid himself.
Congrats!

Game looks really nice. I looked at the code. It's very impressive that you chose to use p5 for it.
Some sounds would add a lot, as other parts are well done and complete.
Great job. Cheers!
