SUNLIT GROVE

(Please note that there are only two endings out right now the rest will be finished soon,  I will be constantly updating this project frequently during the weeks so keep an eye out.)


Burned out and overwhelmed, your doctor insists you take a break. What better escape than a retreat far from technology?
Help prepare for the local festivities with the overly affectionate Maverick, and do your best to avoid his unsettling brother. 

Explore the secluded, self-sustaining town of Sunlit Grove, where the people are kind, and a little bit too welcoming...

Really good game would recommend, so far I've only gotten every ending but 3, not sure if number three is harder to gete natrually or i'm juust making a mistake.

Spoilers for ending 3:

-----

Step back instead of coming closer to Maverick in the lake, then Do what Camden says when he tells you to run, then when Maverick asks you to stay after he saves you from the deer (this choice will come whether or not you go back or stay with him in the corn) say No and that should give you ending 3 :)

Thank you so much I was so cofnused!

Okay so first thing is.. body horror. Damn I hate having my body altered but this gave me mixed feelings. I got 4 endings. And literally the first one was just me vegging out all week. That is actually the most realistic ones. I wouldn't go to place outta even google maps :3. 

Anyhow the second one I got eaten by a weird deer with a lotta eyes? I suppose.

Now to both main endings I suppose.

So on to the 3rd ending I don't come to trust him, his mother slaps him and stuff and he puts me in the basement and y'know YBF level body horror. I swear I hate when they take my leg. Like why his EAR and my LEG???? That is so unfair. Yandere-ish? I suppose. I mean it's probably more like angsty in this ending. for me at least. He said that we have our whole lives to love but bruh that ain't happening like unless I get a fucked up stockholm syndrome even then I'd make it angsty reminding him each waking moment about my leg.

Then the 4th ending? well...it was basically where I trusted and love him and stuff and got my leg cut still. I'd make him much much more guiltier than the 3rd one here.

OVERALLL I loved it! It was obvious in a unexpected way! Very cool. I'd like to try out the new ending of the corn maze thing when it comes out. Maybe Camden would have a route? The face of that weird entity or the deer one of them was probably Algea. The townsfolk almost gave it away. I hope there is a part where I can listen to camden and actually make a dash for it and escape with my car but the execution was MUAHH! loved it as much as the other game. Such a long review. Sorry for the rant. <3

A good story, I almost wish it was longer! Maverick's route is fun, the only thing I think could be improved is being less obvious maybe? 

I'll have to say the sound effects for the buttons are abysmal and the music doesn't fit the atmosphere at all, but the story and chars have something that grabs you, which is a win :D I like! <3
