Wow, very ominous and spooky vibe. Just the fog and sound design alone do so much! I really like the whole look of everything. I would definitely suggest some more variety in the terrain/cactus, or even fewer cactus, since having so many of them takes away from the desolate feeling. Other than that though you nailed the vibe perfectly. Love the opening monologue and the characters as well. Very interesting entry, thanks!

Thanks for your feedback! Initially with the cactus I had tried to do a randomly generated set of plants/things around, but then ended up spending way too long on a system that prevented them spawning on roads and in important parts. I almost got there but was taking too much time so the cacti are 1,000 manually placed nodes 😅
Thanks again for playing!
You should check out the ProtonScatter add on, that's what I used to place trees in our game. Granted I was pretty lazy with it so the results aren't super great. But you can place boxes where your scatter items will spawn, and boxes where they aren't allowed to spawn, so you could easily block them from spawning in the road. And you can set it up so that they are randomly placed, with random orientation, and even random scale within a range so they are all slightly different heights. Super helpful for placing scatter, I would have gone crazy if we had to hand place everything lol
