this short abstract exploration game is my first LD entry. i spent most of my time making sprites and music so there is not really much gameplay. there is a lot of atmosphere however. :) a playthrough will only take about five minutes.

controls:
LEFT, RIGHT - go left and right
UP - use umbrella
R - if limping around the forest is not your style (or you just don't like the anim), press this to engage beast mode

i developed the game with the love2d library, so it works on windows, mac, and linux. i've only included a standalone version for windows though; if you want to play it on another platform, download love from http://love2d.org/ and grab the .love file. the source is also in the .love file--just change the extension from .love to .zip and you can open it up to get at the lua files inside.

i had some more grandiose plans for this game but i ran out of time so i had to keep it pretty simple. if time permits, i'd like to do a bit more with it in the future.

update: timelapse added!
