I just loved this game.
It kind of reminds me Never Alone in some aspects. It makes me wonder how polished this game could be if you had more money to make it.
I just had some issues to find one of the kene at the first stage.
Wonderful purpose! More then a game, this work bring us the opportunity to mett Huni Kuin indigenous culture, using videogame as a speech-space claim. Thanks!
