This should have been 3D I hate 2D pixelshit. Make sure you add online and local multiplayer or you're not gonna make it. Charming gameplay and the fog of war with shadows reminds of me dark wood. You know what fucker play darkwood and come back to making this game and make sure you make cute dark wood if you're gonna go 2D route still and appeal to Californians unlike me at least this isn't a fucking puzzle platformer like my trash.
-The axe hand controls like flipping tools is great looking. Very soulful. Animations here and there are fantastic like pulling bed sheets and the little character with his trump hat is charming.
-Needs music. Go find some non-American audio stock website and find non-commonly used music and buy it and use it. *(including ambient audio)* what kinda survival game doesn't have crickets and birds going wild making forest sounds you forgot that kinda comfy shit. I'd hook you up with my audio bros from nipland but I dont want to share my secret sauces for kino find it yourself DO NOT make your own music I bet you cant do it you cant even do 3D.
-ADD GUNS YOU NEED GUNS play darkwood you hack.
-Add giant scary monsters to survive from. You need iconic spooky monsters that you can fit in your key art and survive/fight agasnt.
-Add footsteps and make sure there is support for all textures and whatnot footsteps for grass/wood.
-Add a ghost that stalks you hiding in the trees of the forest and relates to a story or some shit.
alright good luck you'll need it
