Anyway, yea the directions popping up quickly on the posts really helped with getting around. I managed to only die once. This was really solid. Very interesting level.
Game looks great.
I work to corrupt.
@stuckne1 Thank you! I really wanted to try some dark humor for a long time!
@khaotom Thanks for your good work, the master is now very happy!
I liked that you could wander the world with no constraints before you activate the quest, to properly explore the world and see the whole map. Also handy for learning where things where without time constraints. The signposts were definitely useful.
Not a fan of the time limits.
I found it was possible to walk on top of the bushes by using one of the glowy eggs as a stepping stone.
I liked that the first village added a barricade to try and keep you out but some more dialogue interaction could improve things. It felt a bit too straight forward to get the villagers to hand over their loved ones.
@dock-frankenstein It was my whole idea to focus about orientation of a tiny map. I was alone working on this and had some personal issues during the jam so no time to do more!
The theme is terrifying. And the mission and dialogues really work well.
Great job!
There's nothing much to criticize, except I feel the perspective could be slightly improved; it needs to be more level. Right now, the slope is a bit steep, and it doesn't look very comfortable...
But seriously, very impressive for a 72h game! Amazing graphics. Good on you for taking it easy on yourself! I'm always tempted to go for all-nighters on game-jams :sweat_smile:

Great aesthetic with the scribbly demon face, made it all the more menacing. Great stuff!
After a while it becomes a bit repetitive, though.
It's quite weird playing as the "bad guy" but overall I enjoyed it :smirk:
@theoratkin @loiclegrosfrere Don't worry the puppies are all really happy... Maybe the master just wants to build a really nice shelter for them....
