Unfamiliar

Description

Toilbird needs help going home, but be careful, there are creeps in the snow that are trying to get you! You can use echolocation to see them, but this will also tell them where you are.

There are multiple checkpoints to be reached before finding your way home, as well as some narrative bits. The idea came about from the theme in terms of how we can live a fragile existence. The bird that is loosely referenced is the oilbird.

Thanks for playing!
