I sadly did not finish it. I forced myself to get the first 3 flowers (the last one I accidentally got while moving from the monster), but when I found out there was more aimless searching to be done I gave up.
I liked the intro and the voice acting adds character, but I didn't feel that the fact Maverick was an animal influenced the story, Maverick could've just as well been your grandpa and the story (from what I've seen) would've still worked.

Nice work making a 3D game! 

That monster, though, man... almost gave me a heart attack...
