I REALLY want to like this game, the concept is really exciting, but after playing it for a little while I have to say it doesn't really feel like a complete or necessarily even really very playable game. Moving around in coyote form feels clunky and difficult to maneuver. There's no sense of being an agile, clever creature that seems like should be. Flight as a crow can stretch further if you use it right than you'd expect from its challenges, but intuitively it feels like you slow down way too fast and managing speed feels awkward and precarious. Combat with the dark creatures feels awkward (due to the awkward controls) and it isn't really clear whether you're "supposed" to fight the rats, since fighting is hard and they keep respawning for at least enough waves to feel like the fight might go on indefinitely. Defeating the very first enemy in the game feels like way more a challenge than it should be if is actually intended to, thanks to the controls. I didn't find the weasel form, though the game settings indicate it exists and so do other reviews, which seem indicate there's more content in the game that's actually reachable. There's a lack of easily findable signals as to…

Its got yotes. Yknow its gonna be good when its got yotes.

I really enjoyed playing through this game. The art style is absolutely amazing, and the soundtrack is very immersive and cozy. The game also features a nice mix of small puzzles and quests, along with an interesting story.

Will wait for the game to be finished. At this state I found it to be unplayable. My PC crashed (Not really game related), when I opened my save again, it put me back in the tutorial, nowhere near the tutorial spawn point, and I had to look where the crow was to interact with it and get rid of control tutorial message. Could not delete my save, nor start a new one. Game and story looks cool tho and I'm really looking forward to when it's finished ! But this is so unfinished it feels like a free itch.io demo

I bought this game just to support ONE of my FAVORITE artist: RayJ (@TheRoguez). Hey man, you rock and i love ur artwork Coyote. Keep it up! Let me know if ya planning on any others game too ^^

If you're looking to play a cute game as a Coyote, or you're a fan of Native American Trickster Coyote you're going to enjoy this game. the art style is cute, movement feels satisfying, and the various side-quests helping various animals is heart warming. If you're going for 100% I can attest that sometimes the collectables dont load in, sometimes you have to reset the level or return to menu so that the collectable (or the animal to return it to) loads in. also, I got a bug where it gave me the achievement for clearing the marshlands and 100% the game, but when I do the "star-view" ability it says I only have 30 out of 31 stars, soooo idk if im missing one or if the counter didnt tick up! //shrugs (trying to say this as least spoiler-y as possible) prob the most frustrating part is the Marshland boss; conceptually I think its really cool and lets you exercise your prowess flying around as crow, but the Rock you reuse in the fight will sometimes fling off into one of (five or six?) random locations, two of which will clip the rock beyond the floor of the boss arena. so in order to beat it, youll have to reset the level/return to menu and hope that the RNG lets you pick…
