Great atmosphere! The pixelated fog and eerie sound design makes for a strong horror experience.
Is there a way to drop items? They can easily get lost if you stray from the house, never to be found again.
I would've liked some explanation of what I was supposed to do and how the mechanics worked, as it wasn't very intuitive. When is it possible to sleep and what is curse? Do the monsters actually do anything? (besides being very scary, the noise effect when they are near is really effective)
Thanks! You can press F to drop items. You have to reach the 20th day to release the curse and win. The curse makes your life harder, increasing the amount of food you have to eat, and the monster(crow) difficulty. If you get too much curse(200), you die for good. To sleep you have to wait at least half a day. Press E to sleep. The monster is part of the curse, It's there to kill you and prevent you to reach the day 20th. If the monster kills you, you lose a day. Crops can also die if you don't water them before the day is over.
Played for about 3-4 tries and it was interesting. Great atmosphere and artwork. I didn't find Well on my first tries and then when I found it, I didnt realize you have to hold E to refill. Also, where to get more Ammo? Enemies can be avoided by just running around the house and screaming : D. Good job, nice game.
