Nice graphics and the sound helps it really come alive ^^ I can imagine people who try this spend more time just waiting for nothing than they would like to admit (I know I did). I agree with previous posts about woodland animals, would be amazing with a squirrel come by or something? Also, perhaps the call of an owl in the far distance instead of cawing would make it even more cozy?
And I then there is the title which is a bit confusing... Is it a actually a "bål" (bonfire)? Looks more like a "brasa" (campfire) to me :P (But that is just me being picky) ^^
I'm really appreciate the cozy particle effects. Gives a very warm, yet non-aggressive, feeling of fire. The pale lighting of the trees is also spot on, giving a late summer sort of presence. The aforementioned two contrast each other well.
If I'm forced to complain about anything, then I'd say the fire burns out a bit to quickly.
But thanks for giving us something to just relax to! :smile:
