Almost got hit by the scarecrow every time he saw me, so no way to bring the wheat back :joy:
Anyway, really nice mood and graphics here, great job !

@zoglu thx! You need to raise the lantern to see further.
And don't forget to turn off the light and hide when the green scarecrow is near!

The graphics, atmosphere and sound effects is all pretty good. The game idea is fun, but it can be really difficult to avoid the scarecrows. Overall a interesting LD game.

I loved this game, the whole mood, the dark and the music makes for a very good game. Only thing i can say is if a green scarecrow comes running at you its pretty hard to hide and turn of the light at the same time. Good job

The graphics and sound are amazing! Really cool spooky atmosphere, I even got jump-scared few times. Low poly art is great, animations are very well done as well. Very good job!

I thought my game was spoopy but now that i played yours, my game is a comedy show LOL. You did a great job. I had to Alt + F4 every time i found an enemy because i was too scared ROFL, but even tho, nice sounds and music, great jumpscares too! The concept is really good.

This is really well done. The models, animations, particles, controls, atmosphere and music were spot on. My only criticism is that I would have liked to hear a whoosh sound when you swing your scythe. Excellent work.

Wow, that was tense. I got killed the first time really fast, but then I learnt to be more careful and survived quite a long time and finally made it! Thanks to the instructions panel being visible from where the light is, I was able to find the initial spawn point, else I'd still be horribly lost :D

Excellent work with the atmosphere. Graphics and sounds could be polished but you managed to create a nice experience out of fairly normal farm elements. Great!
