this game just feel unbalanced, hiding did not really do anything throwing things did not distract the scarecrow. Running was really bad you would just run out of stamina in like 3 seconds and your screen would just turn red. The only good thing about this game was if you died you would not loose any progress and could continue till you beat the game, probably died like 20 time.

Awesome Game. Corn Fields scare the hell out of me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1cqvQ3mo0A&t=937s

probably the most sluggish jump in a video game. Heavy orange-brown vignette filter is ugly. My main man smokes 3 packs a day with how quickly he runs out of breath. Anyway, I found a ritual disk and couldn't believe I had to hold it in front of me to run it back home. Smokey Robinson ran out of breath and died.

Game about waking up in a tool shed next to a corn field and having to run around finding glowy rocks while a scarecrow friendo tries to grab you. you wander around 6 small locations of like house, a barn, a well, etc, with the corn field in the middle, finding one glowy rock per location and bringing them back to a circle of rocks in the middle. It doesn’t have an inventory so you have to pickup and carry items between locations as required and if friendo does yomp you, you drop the item. This can be a little annoying but if it’s a key item it will have a green glow above it, this is sadly not the case for the squeaky muscle bear, if friendo yomps you while carrying it through the corn you will sadly never find it back. Anyway, it’s a decent enough free game, plays without feeling a slog for about 90m -2h.

Cool idea, very poor execution. You a farmer & can't run more than 2s without getting tired, vision blured, making noise & whatever is that fugly dude killing you. If this is still under work, it could be something someday startign with changing the colors to something natural & be more user friendly since have no idea wtf u r supposed to do. GL
