About
Red grew up in a cottage with her family on the outskirts of a vast forest, safe and quiet. The woods are not as safe as they had always appeared from Red's window however... On one fateful day, Red finds herself alone, her parents consumed by a terrible floral curse that had crawled out from between the trees.
Armed with an old lantern that her mother managed to give her before the curse took hold, Red must dive into the woods where the curse originated, seeking help from a certain family member that she had never met before.
Cursed animals stalk these glades, and a wolf appears to roam amongst the shadows, never drawing attention, yet always watching... In order to survive Red must cling to the light of her lantern, fight back against the monsters and expose the secrets of the flower curse to free the forest and her family from its grasp.

Love this! Super difficult and cool art style
Атмосферный 2D‑платформер с элементами экшена и RPG в фэнтезийном сеттинге. Игрок управляет героиней Ред, которая отправляется в загадочный лес, чтобы снять проклятие с родителей. В пути ей помогают фонарь и магические цветы — предстоит сражаться с монстрами, решать платформенные головоломки и раскрывать тайны мира. Плюсы: Атмосферная рисованная графика — стилизованные 2D‑локации и кинематографичная подача создают запоминающееся визуальное впечатление; Разнообразие геймплея — сочетание платформинга, сражений с уникальными противниками (более 5 видов) и исследования шести насыщенных локаций; Система улучшений — 3 типа магических цветов дают разные бусты, а более 20 коллекционных предметов позволяют настраивать способности героини под свой стиль игры. Минусы: Высокая сложность — бои и платформенные секции местами напоминают Dark Souls: требуют точности и терпения, могут отпугнуть менее опытных игроков; Ограниченная навигация — в густом лесу легко заблудиться, а подсказки по маршруту минимальны; Повторяемость некоторых секций — отдельные участки и типы головоломок встречаются многократно, снижая ощущение новизны. Итог: подойдёт поклонникам сложных 2D‑приключений и атмосферных RPG — впечатляет визуальным стилем, комбинацией механик (платформер, экшен, исследование) и системой улучшений. Может разочаровать из‑за жёсткого порога вхождения, проблем с ориентацией в лесу и повторяемости отдельных игровых элементов.

I helped make this game so I give it 10/10 stars! (sorry for the bugs, we did our best to squash them, but they are immortal like cockroaches) Thanks for playing!
Was drawn into this game because a friend worked on it, and I'd say it's rather neat! The story is atmospheric and gripping, the artwork is gorgeous, and the moment-to-moment gameplay is pretty good! There are some key issues I think that are worth highlighting, though: 1. Sometimes, it seems that enemies can escape the screen borders of those little ambush sections. 2. The first boss still lets you progress all the way to the right, even before the next-stage trigger appears. 3. Quite a few battles will have enemies attacking you while you're reading dialogue (thankfully you don't take damage). Still a little weird, though. 4. The music, as nice on the ears as it is, might need a bit of a pick-me-up. 5. For sure, fix some misaligned visual button indicators, and maybe add a couple more of them. All that said, this game (and the developers behind it) definitely show potential! I enjoyed this short and simple game for what it is, and now I guess I'll try for 100%. Keep up the good work!
Pretty good game plays similar to that of a D&D campaign, a few bugs here and there as well as not being able to save progress however its a short game so not too big a deal. love the art work except the main character looks like a png animated but for a game like this not too big a deal. over all has vibes of a red ridding hood story with a little bit of last of us vibes good game would recommend.
