The controls are somehow strange. Maybe the mouse buttons would have been better?\rAnd another aspect which is not clear: The creatures do have hunger: So can I eat other creatures or is it only a limitation for being in the body like the description says?\rNevertheless, it's a cool game with a cool idea. I would encourage you to keep working on it!"},{"author_name":"Linus123xbb","author_uid":"28046","time":"Aug 29, 2015 @ 10:08pm","epoch":1440885780,"text":"The game could have been more interesting, it's a bit dull and the terrain was quite glitchy as I would sometimes get stuck.

In this world, you need to survive, but how, you are getting weaker ever as the time flows. You find you get stronger by stealing \u201csouls\u201d you call it, that serve as you energy, your sole-energy. So you start hunting for souls and you find that you can also take over the bodies of the native creatures in this world, so you can survive the for you evil daytime at the cost of some extra of your sole-energy. You are not bound to the life of these bodies and will not die by their death, but you can\u2019t stay in a dead body and will exit out of it anyhow if it dies. If it\u2019s daytime then, it will destroy your sole-energy that will be exposed, and you will most probably die of it unless you\u2019re fast\u2026 really fast. Therefore, it is important to keep the body living during daytime.\r\n\r\nUse [W], [A] and [D] to controll\r\nUse [I] to steal soles or to attack\r\nUse [P] to posess and leave possession\r\nPress [R] to start and restart\r\n\r\nTo posess a body, you will need a level of sole energy.\r\nSome bigger creatures has a bigger amount needed to both steal it's bigger soules, or to pesess it's bigger body.\r\nYou can't stay forever inside a body, you can\u2019t hunt soles from inside of it, only keep it alive, but be aware of the sun.\r\n","title":"Project SHADOW"}
