Jorogumo's Cradle

Fun, short and simple game. Interesting defense options to survive the spider lady. I believe the concept has a lot of potential and would love to see more. Not overwhelmingly scary so its a good starting point if the horror genre is generally too scary for you.

it felt like it took me longer to beat the game than it actually did. felt like an hour and a half and yet the time on this review says it took 30 minutes. if you love going through similar looking dirt ditches, this is the game for you

Fun, but super short. Knocked it out in 35 minutes even with a few screw ups in the beginning. The features in the description make it sound like there's more to it tbh. I like the ambiance and the creative ways to deal with the monster as much as how it tries to siege against you. Really well designed face on it and the way it stares at you from outside a window when you give it a hard time, although the body needs work by comparison as well as that silly walk cycle sound it makes could be something better fitting. I liked the woodland setting, but it could use some distinction as to where one needs to go, like adding landmarks and a few directional nudges. I kind of wanted more in this. Content, lore, and so on. Why does it live where it does? Is it recent? It seems relatively intelligent- why does it touch your cheek before killing? Etc, etc. I know this is probably a first project but I could see something like this being a proper sandboxy/wider scale survival experience.
