I use a qwertz keyboard and even I use wasd. Yall have seriously too high standards when it comes to controls of INDIE titles. Plus wasd is the way to go for like ANY game
Yeah you're right, rebinding is a basic feature, but it's an indie title, just shut up and use the solution given to you (xpadder) or just don't play it, you have the solution and you're just bitching about it.
Can you switch to a different layout in your OS? Sure, the keys won't correspond to what you type, but at least you will be able to control the game like every other. From your other comments, I assume you use azerty layout.
Narratively? Wonderful. Love the lore, love the world, love the art.
Gameplay? Some of my favorite gameplay of this style I've personally experienced. Namely, it feels like if HZD was faster and more punchy, rather than realistic.
I really enjoyed this game but the game lagged quite a bit in battles and the audio lag was way too painful to listen to. I featured this game in my charity stream, starts at 1:45
Really beautiful, evocating. You built a very sensitive world with this game, and I would love to see it expand.
The satisfaction you feel when turning on the mennir, to see nature get back to life, it's wonderful. Animations could be improved, mechanics could be polished, expanded upon, but my weirdest suggestion is this: Make the main character younger, or frailer. It may seems weird, but having her being less a warrior, and more a manifestation of fragile, pure and powerful nature would add a sensitive layer. With maybe an outfit covered in leaves, fragile flowers, bark armor, bine bracelets... I might do a lil' artwork to express it better.
Still, it is a wonderful concept, and I would be delighted to see it get bigger than it is.
Love the game but when I get to my second battle with the robots, after I've killed all of them it says I've got more enemies to defeat, yet none are left?
Hey guys could you tell me the system requierments to play this smoothly. because this looks like a very beautiful game, i wanna record this and put it on YT but i want to make sure my potato pc will run it smooth enough so it wont look like a power point presentation. Thanks
For recording we'd recommend a GTX 1060 for the Ultra setting, but the game also has options for High, Medium and Low. If you decide to do a video, please share!
So sorry for getting back to you so late! If you want to move the game to another screen, switch to windowed by pressing F11 and drag it across. In regards to VR launching this is a strange bug, has it prevented you from playing the game?
I don't understand how the estimated time was 45 minutes to 1 hour.
If you consider yourself a gamer, you will complete everything in about 15 minutes. For such a short game, I was expecting a bit more. Completing the game felt like a tutorial and I was expecting there to be a story beyond just the foundations.
Thank you for your feedback, we apologize for giving you false hope. The average playtime of all our playtesters was 45min - 1 hour, that's where the estimate comes from. Thank you for giving SAI a go.
Thank you for your response. Keep in mind that QA runs will take longer than in-game play and could make your estimates inaccurate if you use the testing average for playtime estimates on future titles.
Completed all aspects of the game in the time given. My review is for the people who are experienced in gaming and easily steamroll the game while still collecting all the items.
When I play a game like this with a small estimated playtime, I look for a plotline.
It was so condensed that when I saw the credits, I thought it was the end of the tutorial and the rest of the story was going to be told.
People more experienced in gaming are able to take in many things at once. I enjoyed the gameplay; it just felt way too short, and I felt like there was a story I missed out on because the game ended so soon.
Again, the review is more focused towards experienced gamers who are more likely to finish in the time I did.
I am only part of the way through this game so far. However, it is already a very intricate and beautiful game. The graphics, while not insane are still very appealing. The music is relaxing, until you are in battle, then it kicks it up, which I really like (nice touch). I like when you shoot the bow that whatever arrows hit flowers sprout out, again with the drive for incorporating nature nice addition. It is a rather simplistic and linear game, which I actually like in a game every once in a while so this was a great way to get back to the roots. Lastly, not sure if this was intentional, but when the standard machine throws its range attack at you, you can shoot it out of the air if you are quick enough O.O for a simplistic game this is a very intricate touch. Thank you for a great way to relax and get some good gaming in. Very well made and would 100% recommend this to others. (I also gifted my fiancée a copy so thanks for the points there :D)
I would also like to add that I am a huge seek and find collector so the flowers really appealed to me as well. I also had a flyer run in to a tree branch, and it just started flipping out, almost like "WTH did I just hit", which was hilarious.
It's a great thing that you try to 'reawaken the love and respect for nature' not by making a game that's really preachy and always talks about "wow nature is so great and people are all evil and try to destroy it" because we all know that doesn't work, but by showing how great and beautiful nature is, although the "machines are destroying the forest" is obviously the way of showing how people are hurting the environment, but obviously that is a real thing and it sounds subtle enough that it doesn't come off as the game telling you you're a piece of shit ruining them forests but still making you think maybe you should be a bit more careful with nature. And you actually use the money you get from the game to help your cause! I haven't bought the game yet, I just found it while browsng itch.io but it sounds really interesting, and I might try it later
I just seen this game last night I'm from Ireland and LOVE anything Celtic or Norse Mythology related So I cant wait to play and stream this game looks very interesting <3
I'll have to break it into two parts but man it is good! loving the combat and lore so far, a bit simple in the objectives but the game itself is smooth and enjoyable.
just did a free roam portion of it and LOVE IT! definitely making a video on this soon. plus donating to conservation charities to help make the world better, good for you
Absolutely fantastic game! Gameplay was incredibly satisfying and the visuals on the bow really help to understand the mechanics. The audio was great and I love the atmosphere created which really helps tie into the story/message. Overall visuals are amazing. Clearly a lot of hard work and love went into this. Fantastic job guys!

Are you porting to Linux or Mac in the foreseeable future?
No, unfortunately not
Another game whose controls are hardcoded to wasd and un rebindable. :(
Unfortunately unplayable.
xpadder is your friend
I have no need for a piece of software doing the job of a dev.
Who doesn't use wasd? lmao
esdf > wasd
Anyone who doesn't use qwerty keyboards, for starters.

I just hope that one day there will be more!
Beautiful game. Short, but very good. Shooting the charged arrows feels so satisfying! You have done a wonderful job with this game.
Thank you so much! <3
Nice game! But very short 😟
Hm, this game looks really great but I'mm getting lag on even the lowest graphics setting (and I just recently bought a new card. :-)
what kind of CPU and GPU do you have?
Lol. Meanwhile, a 2013 notebook runs it (On lowest) without any lag.
I really enjoyed this game but the game lagged quite a bit in battles and the audio lag was way too painful to listen to.

Sorry to hear about your lag issues, but we're happy you enjoyed it despite it! Was a fun watch :D

Thank you so much for taking the time to draw this, it looks awesome! We're so happy the game resonated with you <3
My pleasure really, all the best to you and tour team!
Beautiful game by wonderful devs
amazing, really nice to see a game using gaelic/irish. I wish there was more to it because its worth way more then what its going for
Hi! I looked through the config files and settings and couldn't find a way to invert the mouse.
I know, I'm a heathen, but I'd really like to be able to aim! :)
Love the game but when I get to my second battle with the robots, after I've killed all of them it says I've got more enemies to defeat, yet none are left?
Try reloading your checkpoint, or run around for a little and they might spawn! Sometimes it also works to run up to the door and back down.
Congrats on launching this! The game is wonderful, we love your work. :)
Thank you so much! We cant wait for Alula!

I will definitely share if I decide to make a vid out of it. It looks super interesting and cool!!
i cant get game to load up on one screen. it also starts my vr when loading.
So sorry for getting back to you so late! If you want to move the game to another screen, switch to windowed by pressing F11 and drag it across. In regards to VR launching this is a strange bug, has it prevented you from playing the game?
The same thing happens to me. It doesn't stop the game from working (I didn't have the headset connected).
I don't understand how the estimated time was 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Really glad I read TheKingsman's comment before buying your game. It looks really promising, is it still in development or is it finished?
Hi! This is the completed game, we hope that their playtime hasn't put you off buying it and giving it a go.
Yah, well not every body wants to just complete the game, take in the artwork and music

Gotcha, and the game is $5 so the game should listen. Coming from a game devs perspective though, taking in the scenery is part of the gam

didn't know i was so close to the ending lol and i'm sure if i got all the flowers but it is a great game. Great job
Thank you so much! It was a pleasure to watch you play it <3
