I know that there is no ending or a clear goal to reach. That is my fault after I see that I could not find any good solution. In fact the general idea was to make a game from the point of view of someone similar to Slender, someone who just killed another that was searching the eight pages on a forest. I'm really happy with the result (is my first game) and probably I will try to develop the plot and, of course, think a good end.\r\rAnd yeah, I admire so much the work of Terry Cavanagh :-)"},{"author_name":"Edocentrique","author_uid":"18304","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 10:32pm","epoch":1355783220,"text":"I don't see the point nor why it's a vilain but the minimalist style with the pixel rain is beautiful"},{"author_name":"h.attila","author_uid":"8403","time":"Dec 17, 2012 @ 11:10pm","epoch":1355785500,"text":"I love Terry's work, so it's nice to see a game inspired by one of his.\rI like the atmosphere you created with the nice, dark palette along with the storm sounds, I just wish there would be a real ending to it."},{"author_name":"angela","author_uid":"17857","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 2:55am","epoch":1355799000,"text":"nice graphics"},{"author_name":"aeveis","author_uid":"8854","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 10:33pm","epoch":1355869680,"text":"there could be better placement of things, like a bit more walking space before the sand pit so people don't walk into it by accident.
