It's very well done puzzle game, with not that hard but clever puzzles (I won't give spoiler about my favourite puzzle in the game), the art style, sounds and mood is great. I enjoyed much, good job!

Good job, it was fun. I didn't quite know how to properly solve the totem puzzle so I just cycled through the possibilities.

The game lured me in with its intriguing concept and art style. I'll leave my honest review down below, but my overall thoughts is that the time spent on this project with only one developer, i believe you made a damn good game.

Positive;

-Art seems simple but very well done, I'm sure with more time things could have been much more advanced.

-The music is mysterious and well done and conveys the mood pretty well.

-Some of the puzzles were well done and with roughly 5-10 mins of play time I finished the game

Negatives;

-Some puzzles were confusing to me considering it is hard to tell what can be interacted with in what ways.

-Either there is multiple ways to complete the game or there are useless items in the game like the shards of glass and seashell.

-The game ends abrupt and I would have loved if there was a deeper story to things about the character on the island.

Overall I would say this is a fantastic entry and I am impressed at the amount of work done in such short time.

This game is very nice. I guess some more sfx for everything and a more unique art style are the only things still missing. Solid entry!

Neat idea, and well polished. The mechanics were a bit confusing at first but it made sense in a bit. Great entry!

Very cool. I admit, I couldn't finish it but that might be because of being sick with the flu :P

nice game overall, in my case it was too hard and/or unclear what you can/should do. Well, iam not rly good at puzzles, but anyway i couldn't figure out what to do next at some stage of the game which was a little bit frustrating...

Nice polished puzzle game, good work! The music and sound was good, really build up the mood

I feel like I cheated tho. After I moved the initial rock, I got stuck. So I shuffled the obelisk, just sort of on a whim, and it solved itself.

That was really fun! I'm not usually good with these puzzle escape games but I actually managed to finish this one! :P

I had to cheese it with the obelisk, I realized there could only be 16 possible combinations so I brute-forced it, from there it was smooth sailing.

Nice game. The art style, audio, and game play really work nicely together. Great work.
