my motorcycle exploded from the final boss...
This game is really fun, I enjoyed it alot, except for when I die. My favorite part is lockpicking, it kinda reminds me of Fallout 4
won't anyone really care that every character is furry?
I am a furry and I have to say I like it
ok
w-wuh!??! A.... furry game??!!??!??!?!? Oh dear heavens!!!! A furry game!!! Those exist?!?!
Really nice styling, and exploring the world is kinda my jam. Careful of the big explainer description here cause it might freak people out a bit from your game, it did for me till I played. Oh yea and the music is fitting
Yeah, thank you!
Oh, alright
Really nicely stylized take on this kind of game!
Thank you! ^^
Where should I report any glitches or bugs?
You can just put it here ^^
I did 2 runs, on the second one, when I rested in the middle of traveling, the game showed it would use 1-2 food and water for the short rest I selected, but it sent my food and water to -700, which I somehow survived longer than the first run, but ended up dying from a heatstroke
Alright, I appreciate it
