Feels great stacking wood on the bear.  I would like some kind of a dash or run.  \n\nThe dynamic of saving the fire and saving yourself is awesome.  Having to leave the cozy fire to keep it alive fits great with the theme.  It has all the feelings of gathering wood while camping and the same relaxation.  \n\nOverall it is an excellent game given the time.","likes":4,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"marccspro","author_uid":"1012623","time":"2020-04-21T19:18:25Z","epoch":1587496705,"modified":1587496705,"text":"Really nice game with a simple but effective game play !\nGrete job !","likes":4,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"sadsmile","author_uid":"1014408","time":"2020-04-21T19:52:10Z","epoch":1587498730,"modified":1587498730,"text":"Very moody game!

It is a difficult game but depending on which direction you go at the start of the level can make it much easier or harder. for example in level 2 one way you could go would bring you to an enemy and a few sticks but you could go a different way and find 2 enemies and enough logs to get you through the night. there is also an area you can find whit a good amount of sticks and no enemies at all. Personally I think we probably should have added checkpoints.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Sunblast","author_uid":"1082723","time":"2020-04-22T15:19:34Z","epoch":1587568774,"modified":1587568774,"text":"Nice and relaxing game.

I don't know if its true for you too but my computer defaults to 150%. Thanks for the suggestion of slowing down the time it take the fire to go out. we may be able to slow it down a bit but I Don't think it could go too much slower. currently it takes about half a night for the fire to go if you don't stand next to it which  is much faster to discourage waiting by the fire. Alleviating difficulty is still a good idea which could be done with checkpoints or @ryan-harriman 's suggestion of a dash that could potentially do that while also adding in more strategy with resource management. Thanks for the feedback and I'm see you enjoyed the game.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"wheybags","author_uid":"1046940","time":"2020-04-22T21:56:03Z","epoch":1587592563,"modified":1587592563,"text":"Music + sounds were nice, I missed a checkpoint system though.

There is a message on every level but the first just says how to close messages. Unless you brought wood back to the fire and dropped it near the message but not into the fire, there shouldn't be anything to pick up close enough to read the message. If you did put wood down near the message  that could be an issue. Otherwise I guess it just wasn't clear the button prompt was the read the message rather than pick something up. Maybe somehow making the button prompts to read and pick up different would make it more clear?
