is there an actual end to the wolf forest?like Ifeel like I ran towards the left forever.
would have assumed that the closer to the left you get the less time a wolf needs to get from your position to left border and back.
and voce versa takes the longer to go to the right and back.
but cant exactly say I felt like there was any pattern.
wolves jsut seemed to come back whenever they felt like it.
kept running towards the left but no clue if there is an end or when I will reach it
Yes, there's an ending and it's necessary to reach it in order to progress in the game
yeah I beat the game by now.
but as others mentioned, the wolves totally DO just turn around whenever they feel like it.
Like I literally saw a wolf run past, barely at the edge of the screen and he jsut came back.
and he was definetely still far away from the map's walls!
At the time I made this game I thought this would be a super cool idea xD
I honestly can't say if it was in this game.
But I remember some little saw parcour (where you have to climb up right down and there are saw paths there, so you have to jump from safe corner to safe corner when the saw isnt in front of you.
further right, tthere were 3 or 4 vertical saws quickly going up and down and you have to time it gto get through.
an dhtne there was some gray or such door to the right, with a pitch black room behind.so you couldnt see whats in there.
and even the character when interacting with the door, says something like "the door is closed. there must be a way to open it. i wonder what is behind"
at the time I thought theflare gun would be behind it but didnt know how to open it so i went away. and later elsewhere i got all the items and finished the game. totally having forgotten about it. until now.
so what was up with that room, was there a way to openit?
or just a troll kind of thing? :-)
o jogo ta legal
Obrigado ^-^
Espero que possa testar o jogo após a atualização pra me dizer se os problemas na resolução ainda persistem.
Ok, so I finished the just now. I really liked it even it there are parts that seemed tedious. I would've but a bit more checkpoints to prevent a mistake from losing progress, but that's just my opinion. I can see that maybe you wanted to go with "realistic" survivior vibe where the game is trying to break you motivations just as nature won't be kind to you. Howeverm it maybe that my keyboard has issues or my low ability in plataformers
I found some wierd bugs too:
Near the end of the game close to an area with many blue enemie. I fell off a cliff and reached a pitch black set of plataforms.
Sometimes the wolf might switch direction for no reason, even if it had just went past the place were it switched directions
I died as I climbed a snow wall. While it took me to the checkpoint, for a couple of seconds I could keep climbing the wall
When I got the lever, the message was in portuguese, I think
I think the game should have a windowed option. I think that many messages were working oddly on my screen because a resolution issue.
Okay, there are several things. I'll check each one out so that other people have a better experience. But no big changes, I intend to work on a fresh project :D
Please notice that the overall experience of the game is great. I don't want to seem mean I was just trying to provide a bug report. The game is fun and enjoyable. If only I think I would've add more checkpoints, but maybe it's just be not being used to hard plataformers
Don't worry about it, it's good to get feedback. Did you manage to make the ending where you get the flight recorder?
Yes! I only got that ending. I suppose that's the "good" ending.
Hey... I changed some settings about the resolution, but I have no idea how the game will behave. Can you test it again?
Apparently I can see cutscenes and dialog correctly now. Good job!

The color scheme of this itch.io page makes it really hard to read!
On my chrome everything looked fine. I've tested it in other browsers and I really saw it's bad, thanks for letting me know.
