A lot of the placement of hazards seems to be fairly random, however, which led to what felt like a few un-passable obstacles. I guess the idea was that the player should upgrade themselves over time to be strong enough to bypass things like bear traps and riflemen, but the speed at which upgrades were earned felt a little too sluggish to be really fun."},{"author_name":"OFF","author_uid":"39617","time":"Aug 24, 2015 @ 6:00pm","epoch":1440438900,"text":"Really great work for 48h, it lack maybe of more life bar to avoid certain hard situation, or maybe one more capabilities (hide in dirt, invisibility)\r<br\/>The game is really impressive.

Growing bigger and stronger to defend yourself against the hunters in the forest, your goal is to find your father's ship and go back home.\r\n\r\nAs we use to say in France, Bon App\u00e9tit !\r\n\r\nRules :\r\n1. Find your Father and his ship to leave earth. The map is always the same, even if animals, traps and food is.\r\n2. You must gather food in order to evolve. Your must then hunt. And to spend your evolution points, you have to go to your nest.\r\n3.Each time you evolve, the game will become harder : less easy preys, more traps and hunters. Oh, and this is infinite. Try to reach day 40+ and see how brutal it gets.\r\n\r\nI hope you will enjoy it ! Please leave a comment :)\r\n\r\nGo check my Tumblr : http:\/\/vegamukiwa.tumblr.com\/","title":"Back for Dinner"}
