Story

A fairy tale like short horror game where you get kicked out of your HOME for being very naughty!

You prepare for a journey to start a new life after the unfair and irresponsible treatment you witnessed!

But things don't turn out as expected, as it is usually the case in life...

This is different though... But it surely can't be bewitched, right?
Especially not at this holy and blessed time full of love where you spend time with your close ones!!

...Oh wait.

That time is already behind you and so is your PATH ahead, as you are already lost.
You are not alone though, for better or for worse.

...Probably worse.

Even the good old stories about the kind gift bringer seem to be all lies and can't be trusted either.
So who can you trust in this cold nightmarish realm?

The only thing left is to keep MOVING forward and finding a way back.
Hope just can't be all lost, right?!

This is a really nice one - I love the atmosphere it creates. Just wondering if I'm missing something though - is it possible to survive in the demo? Or is freezing an inevitability?

Also, I found the super tall snowman tower, are there any other landmarks I have missed in the demo?

Great work! Can't wait for the full release :)

Thank you very much for playing and the feedback!

The demo only contains 1 ending, so freezing is part of the process :P and actually points to a Snowman later in the main game (especially hinted by the demo character's special "sound cue").

As for the landmarks, since the demo is really short, the landmarks are not necessary for navigation/ orientation but I can sense that the environment might need some more variation...

If there is anything else I can improve - and manage until release..., please let me know :)
