I’m a little suspicious of this

Hector REAAALLLYYY looks like Wilson from don’t starve and don’t starve together

Gothic and spooky

This game is so cute I love the music so much. The only thing I don’t like is I keep getting killed by bats

Needs more improvement

The game is pretty good but it can be hard to control when your moving the torch.
I love the art style, it kinda reminds me of ‘dont starve together’ but it’s still good !
