I managed to see a ghost! Maybe you could have an in game way of showing the stuff you can do, like when you grab a piece of hard wood you show "[X] Craft Axe" or something.

Great start! Great design for enemies, too bad there isn’t much to do beside finding logs to feed the main campfire. Keep it up, I’m sure allowing people to try your game and working on it will make it excellent :D
You should look into Unity’s Package called “Cinemachine” (check for a video tutorial on youtube), the basics would allow you to very quickly setup a camera that follow your player but with improved following movements (Damping). Going further, you could even add camera movements towards near objects to hint your player where the next object is. You don’t HAVE to use it, that’s just a suggestion if you don’t know about it <3

Burnt WingsCool start to the survival game! It felt a little bit sparse at times I wasn't sure where to find more materials and then I wandered so far away, it was hard to find my way back to the camp. But it's really cool how many enemies and items you designed in such a short time. Great work! It also had a great atmosphere with the sound design, even made the cute pixel art feel scary!

Ecaroh's ElementalsThanks for your comment and I'm glad that you enjoy it
The materials will spawn randomly near or far the player so it's a little bit hard to find them
The game will have some updates in the future, maybe more items, enemies or development in gameplay and movement
I hope you will enjoy it like you do now
With some adjustment it could be a great game!
I like the concept, but it’s a bit boring, it’s just about getting sticks and staying in the fire, also, you can survive without fire because wolves gets stuck in trees sometimes.
The limitation is respected, because you pick-up and drop items with one button, but it could have been way more fun implemented in a different way.
I don’t understand why you can move only with arrows and not with WASD or with a controller, as you are using Unity, I recommend you to do some research about Input.GetAxis and Input.GetAxisRaw, because that automatically let’s you detect WASD, arrows and controllers inputs!
The art is quite good, and overall the game is not that bad, considering that only one person made this, I think you should someday remake this, spending more time on it, and it will be a really great game, it has good fundaments!

AstroAscentWery nice game for 1 person. Good job! But I didn’t understand how the concept was implemented, because it was necessary to do 2 actions for 1 button, and not 2 buttons for 2 actions ʕ·͡ᴥ·ʔ
