Really liked it! Especially the pacing of the story and how it's not too dificult to not get game-overs while still making you feel clever for using your intuition. Love how the characters are developed as people, it makes things alot more immersive and makes you care alot for the characters. Mentioned endings already, but I just HAVE to say that there is a great variety in endings. Other than that, the visuals are absolutely outstanding!!! The light animation, especially in the intro sets the mood oh so well and really adds to the aesthetic appeal as well as the colour/stylistic choices made. Also reminded me of MLP infection AUs lol/pos

Great monster design and visual style.  Balancing expeditions was a great idea.

Oh this was scary! I loved the journal and the use of 3D for positioning the characters and the great camera work!

I enjoyed the story for this one, sound design was also great! Felt very immersive and the slightly more gritty artstyle matched it well. Great work overall!

EPIC game. incredible story. much scarier than anticipated, couldn't sleep. the sound design was amazing and added the experience heavily. the visuals and sprites for all the characters especially the ending scenes were so beautiful and terrifying. will be playing again, highly reccomend.
