I loved the game's setting and sound (even if you did not make it, it's still a good choice)! Also the 2D lights tones truly have something special!
Also the forest is pretty big isn't it?

How does your game fit the theme?
In this game you constantly reverse your roles of "Hunter" and "Prey". Mechanicaly because you switch between playing as a Photographer and a Tiger all allong the game. Also because the photographer is "Hunting" for it prey to take a picture, and the Tiger is trying to flee the forest as a prey would do.

I had fun with this game! My team considered making something where you play the level from 2 different perspectives but decided not to, so I'm glad to experience it through your game instead! The map feels a little big and hard to navigate without the power-ups.
Overall, really nice concept and good execution. Well done!

Space SwappersThe drawings were pretty nice, but I swapped roles and instantly had to restart because I spawned in the light of an enemy.

The night of the DEERThose graphism are beautifull and so original ! Really inspiring.
I managed to win on my second try by reaching the corner with both the tiger and the photographer ahah.

Don't whac-a-mole, whac-a-manCool concept and nice art, I did get lost in the map lol. Overall it was fun but I think an incentive for either role would be nice, like maybe the tiger could attack the poachers for the speed boost? Enjoyed this one for sure, good job!

Squared AwayNice game! Loved how it looked visually, switching from yellow to blue lighting when switching characters was a great touch. Overall great job! Enjoyed playing through as well as just looking at the art :)

Eggbert's Revengethe look and feel of the game communicates so well!
I did have a huge struggle of taking side of... do i want to win as photographer? or as the beast... haha interesting conundrum to have in a gameplay.
Well done!

And Roll For AdventureFun, and surprisingly well balanced! The poachers were fun to avoid, but I can't figure out why they'd poach a wildlife photographer :P

Slopes On VenusThis game is a such a lovely gem. The atmosphere is the definition of less is more and the idea of balancing two contradictory goals in my head is incredible. I still ended up pushing both the tiger and the photographer into the corner to win =/

Cow-BendingFont was a bit hard to read, and the quit button didn't work. Othewise, I love the artstyle!

Night LightThe art was well done, I loved the minimalist animations and the forest sounds. They fit very well together.
* IMO, the choice of Font for the controls page was very difficult for me to read
* I think the darkness, while thematically appropriate, is a little too challenging. IMO, raising the visibility range by 20% would go a long way for legibility
* The statues / environment did make getting around a little easier, though
