Interesting game about you playing a troll which finds a kid in the woods. He’ll join you and you’re his Troll mother now. You can decide what he can do during the years and those decisions will make his stats change. The kid will find characters to talk to along the way. I got an ending where the kid got back to the humans again but I expect more endings.

Great graphics and storytelling, but maybe a bit boring gameplay wise. Still recommended.

Will bring it to the next New Game Old Flame podcast episode.

I listened to the podcast! Thank you for the kind words :)

Spent about half the time just writing, but I still had to cut plenty of events. So it's good to hear that it still feels complete and polished :)

Very cool concept and atmosphere. I loved the palette's used, and a lot of the dialogue was intriguing or hilarious. Never thought I'd play a game where I heard the phrase "shitable face", but here we are :D.

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it :)
If it's not too much trouble, can I ask you to fill in the player survey? It'll inform my updates if I ever get around to them.
