Allow pickup objects without mouse cursor being on them - it's too hard to pick up apples\n2. Add some sound effects for wolves, attacks, object pickup, etc. The music should be helping to set the mood, but sound should help inform the player what is going on for things like the sun etc.\n3. You mention you are trying to fix the light levels, it is too dark, shadow opacity should be down a bit too I think\n\nMassive thank you for uploading a Mac version.

I know you didn't mean for the game to be this visually dark, but the shadows are so pitch black that at first I thought I needed to stay in the shadows to be protected from heat waves haha (I was shocked when I died, did not see my health go down :laughing: ) I like that you went full 100% with the narration (recording + cinematic + cool title screen etc..) really cool what you have achieve in a short time ^^ I little sound design would have been nice though.

I would have liked to see the story introduced a bit more slowly, rather than in the (unskippable) cutscene at the start. Though the images helped a bit.\n\nSome things I would have liked to see:\n- A dedicated attack button. It was a bit cumbersome to have to switch away from my attack in order to eat an apple; having one button for attacking and another for items might have been a way to solve that?\n- As others have noted, a more lenient pick-up radius.\n- Some indication of how to survive the heatwaves. I thought I could hide in the shadows of the little buildings, since some NPCs were doing that, but that didn't seem to work. (The flare in the sky was very cool though.)\n- Some indication of what I'm trying to achieve. I sort of just aimlessly wandered around. Having a goal, however vague, might have been helpful in orienting myself.

Ce projet m\u00e9rite d'\u00eatre continu\u00e9 \u00e0 mon avis ! \n\nQuelques remarques sur le Gameplay, beaucoup qui ont d\u00e9j\u00e0 \u00e9t\u00e9 faites : \n- Au d\u00e9but j'\u00e9tais assez paum\u00e9e, je savais pas trop o\u00f9 me rendre ni comment \u00e9viter de me prendre des malus \u00e0 causes des ondes. Au finale je sais toujours pas comment faire et c'est dommage.\n- Concernant Capitaine Martin, vu qu'il est dans l'ombre et qu'en plus il n'est pas un NPC comme les autres, ce serait bien que sa position et son r\u00f4le soit indiqu\u00e9s visuellement. \n- Comme dit plus t\u00f4t, ce serait pr\u00e9f\u00e9rable de dissocier le bouton d'attaque de l'inventaire. Aussi accumuler les pommes dans un m\u00eame emplacement plut\u00f4t que de devoir appuyer sur des touches diff\u00e9rentes pour les consommer. \n- C'est assez difficile de ramassez les pommes parce qu'il faut beaucoup de pr\u00e9cisions. Peut-\u00eatre les rendre \"ramassables\" une fois arriv\u00e9 \u00e0 une certaine distance d'eux. \n- Autre que la musique, du son qui accompagne les \u00e9v\u00e8nements aurait aid\u00e9 le joueur \u00e0 se situer dans les actions (les loups, les pommes qui drop, Capitaine Martin dans les environs, l'onde etc))! \n- Etrangement j'ai appr\u00e9cier les flashs \u00e0 chaque onde, \u00e7a fait un peu paniqu\u00e9 et se d\u00e9p\u00eacher de trouver un abri. \n\nEn tout cas merci pour l'exp\u00e9rience, j'ai conscience que 48h c'est pas beaucoup de temps et que vous auriez surement voulu nous partager plus de votre concept, cependant ce que vous avez fait est balaise !\n\n","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":859797,"author_name":"reinhpash","author_uid":"reinhpash","epoch":1664910527,"text":"A very good looking game, too ambitious to jam good work","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":861016,"author_name":"Valkhes","author_uid":"valkhes","epoch":1664916811,"text":"This is actually very impressive for 48 hours.\nReally like the game, this is looking already really good.\nFew things I saw; settings are not working, and it looks very dark because of some light problems I suppose.

Maybe even just by walking over them?\n- It was easy to understand when I hit wolves, but not so much when they hit me.\n- Lighting felt weird, I couldn't see anything in dark areas.\n- The world was way too big and easy to get lost in.
