What a nice game. It was fun to play and captured some of that survival horror feel. I also really liked the pixel art aesthetic.
A few things you might want to look into:
- the tree hit box is quite large and makes it difficult to navigate the forest. You might want to make it only as big as the trunk.
- You spend the night just waiting around for dawn to break. Maybe there's other things to do at night that I just didn't discover, but if you're just waiting for time to pass, you might want to allow the player to skip to dawn.
- It's hard to tell where you are in the world with all the trees and the houses looking nearly identical. You might want to add an overhead map, or at least place a few landmarks that are visible above the treeline to make it easier to tell where you are.
