Wasn't clear at first what the goal was so I didn't find the hand immediately. The mood of the game was cool as well as the sound effects. When I died there wasn't a way to restart the game.

Oh my god that was such a scare :O ! I think this game is a very good example for smooth sound transitions in-game; going to the forest from the pool, and the ominous music in the forest, to the all out madness. :) Whats the story of the dead black bird in the middle of the forest?

Well, that was unexpected, but mood change from "ugh, this darn grass" to "oh no help!" works really well.

And as mentioned, restart button could've been nice, also it's not clear if the fight is endless or i'm just that bad.

Well, that certainly was unexpected XD

I'm not sure if there's a way to "win" this game. I did have fun when I found out what the right mouse button was supposed to do, though ;P

YES YES YES YES! I liked this game from the start, but... the moment I clicked on that hand my life, as I knew it, changed forever. Haha that freaking audio in the scene transition...PRICELESS! Solid adventure/combat mechanics and easy to pick up and play. I thoroughly enjoyed this. Brilliant job :D

Played a few times, really enjoyed the discovery aspect of the game. Does right click do anything? (Saw in another comment, but couldn't figure out).

I certainly didn't expect it to turn all demonic and evil all of a sudden, so good job on surprising me with that! The graphics are pretty good, in my opinion. Also, I thought the audio was really well done and helped increase the mood a bit. All around, an interesting experience!

Would be nice if the game automaticaly restarts at the begining or maybe at the hand after you die. Other than that the graphics look pretty good and the twist was very unexpected!

Although the graphics aren't amazing they work well with the rest of the game. As you said, the atmosphere is probably the best aspect. I like the ambience of the forest and the sudden gloomy shift when getting to the hand is very good. Overall, solid entry.
