This game is amazing but could be improved

This game is absolutly fantastic. The art style, the mechanics, the gameplay, it is all so awesome to play. I just picked this game up today as it was free so I thought I would give it a try and it has absolutly blew my expectations out of the water for this game. I did have a few problems with the game.

1. The crafting didn't seem that fluid with the gameplay. Sometimes you could just click to craft and other times you had to navigate to the bushcraft menu to craft. While this isn't a big problem, I did think that it was a strange system to have. Most survival games I have played have everything in one menu for easier accessability so the player knows exactly where things are and how to craft.

2. The AI needs an improvement. When I was attacking the enemies, they would turn 180 degrees to attack and damage me. Also, I found that I would get damaged if I was behind the enemy so I couldn't attack an enemy from behind or sneak up on an enemy because they would always know where I was. They just didn't seem that fluid when trying to fight them.

Apart from those problems, the game seemed very fluid and fun to play. I go more in depth in my video so I hope you enjoy it and I will be doing more videos on this in the future.

Thanks for the feedback and the review. I will be working more on the AI and crafting system as Windstone is very early in development. I'll definitely address the instant 180 AI spinning soon because that is not supposed to happen at all.  When they are poisoned by a blow dart they should turn even slower, but that apparently isn't working. I must have made some change to the AI somewhere along the line that broke their rotation rate without realizing it, so thanks for finding that bug. I hope to see more reviews as this one was quite entertaining.
