Talking points of your game
Explore the forest and exterminate all the ghosts within it. I spent about 14 hours working on the game. This game was inspired by the lost woods in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. One of the main issues I faced was trying to get the footstep SFX to play only when the character was walking. It took a bit of time but I got it somewhat working.

Can't fairly judge this one since my Graphics card is a potato and it can't handle the effects properly, but it seems really cool.

The game should have auto detect settings while you were in the main menu. But then again, there were over 1k meshes in the level.

Yeah, it runs, but my card only supports directx9 so the visual effects won't even render. Thanks for the reply, though.

I love the scenery, the fog, the trees and the curved terrain make a great combination. It managed to scare me once xD

Nice work!

Developer
