Thank you for putting you game out there! I will say I had a hard time getting was the point of the game was and run into a bug where when I got the game over screen the retry button didn't do anything and I had to close the game and relaunch it in order to start over. I thought the game looked really good! I also liked that you included sound effects for walking. Thanks!

Rated your game, hope you would rate my game too…

Good graphics.

Not many Unreal Engine games participate so nice to see one.
And I won 😁!

Gameplay
I didn't know exactly what I was doing nor what the intention was precisely, but I managed to get to "You Win".

Did miss the speed button to move faster through the terrain and also the triggers to pick up or activate something were very sensitive on position and sometimes I had to walk back and forth a few times before I could pick something up or activate it.

Maybe some hints where to look and walk would have been helpful as well, but maybe the intention was to make you move around the map because of that..

Graphics
Terrain, water and trees looked good. The houses were a bit simple. Maybe some more variety in trees and plants would have been a nice bonus. Or some textures on the houses.

Audio
Eerie soundtrack. Gave me the feeling all the time that something could still happen in terms of enemies or something. Some more sound effects when you reach something would have been nice.

Theme
I did not quite get it in this game

Devlog
Present but very short 😉

Overall: nice effort for a solo first landscape and keep it going 🙂!

I will fix this my mistakes in other games. I can make more detailed houses, but when I finish making landscape it was only 2 days to close jam submissions.

Thanks for that detailed testing.

HostSubmitted

No worries, jams are to learn and in your next Jam you will be quicker making the terrain and you have more time for the houses.

I liked the kinda eerie quietness to it all, the music was a nice touch. The fakeout wasn't my favorite thing to then go through and realize if I had just went another way first I would've won. Oh well!

I wasn't sure if the arrow or element puzzles had solutions anywhere besides just randomly guessing? That's certainly what I did, if there were some clever clues I missed them.

Developer

Yeah, I don't think that riddles I made that clever. But it don't made randomly. I can say you way to win but I don't think it will be fun if I do. I don't think anyone guess the way to win, I can give a hint, it in 3 level nearly locked home.

Sorry if I made mistake, my English is bad.

Submitted

Oh i did manage to win actually! I found the solution before I found the third home. :) I am still curious - the arrow and water/fire/stone puzzle solutions I just had to guess until the game said I got the answer right, are there hints in the game towards the solutions?

no worries about translation/English issues, if you prefer another language I can do my best to understand instead!

Developer(+1)

In the arrow puzzle you should look at the level locations from top. Previous, current and next levels locations. With another puzzle solution you should know what will be after solving this puzzle. Water, water, fire means that you swim and then will be fire=). And stone, stone, water means that will be rain=). I don't know how I invented that all;)

Nice game made…
