The world is pretty enough, which made it interesting to explore - but the process of having to bring individual items back to the shelter one at a time became a little tedious, and I was disappointed when there was no reward at the end!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Art and basic movement mechanics are good, though, and as the previous poster suggested, there's certainly potential here =]"},{"author_name":"fullmontis","author_uid":"21736","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 9:51am","epoch":1367315160,"text":"Nice graphics!

The problem was, I only noticed it because I was having a hard time figuring out how to drop the food when I got back to the den &amp; was having to try each key in turn. Some instructions would be good. Also, why 'q'? You've used 'space' to pick up, why not the same to drop?
