Escape the Cursed Forest: A Simple, Non-Combat RPG

Embark on a unique RPG adventure as a skilled hunter trapped in a cursed forest. This isn't your typical combat-heavy game; instead, focus is on exploration, resource management, and strategic decision-making to survive.

The Story:

You, the village's best hunter, journey to a royal capital tournament. Upon arrival, you discover a deserted campsite – all the other hunters have vanished. The forest itself seems to be twisting reality, leading you in circles. Your goal: escape the Elven Curse and unravel the mystery.

Gameplay:

• Minimalist Controls: Navigate the game with a maximum of three buttons at any given time (excluding the main menu).
• Character Creation: While you can't customize your appearance, you can repeatedly reroll your stats to achieve your desired attributes before starting. These stats only affect the game's progression and cannot be checked mid-game.
• Foria, the Quarter-Elf: A mysterious quarter-elf boy (or is he?) aids you in your escape, offering support and crucial items.
• Exploration: Uncover hidden paths by exploring unexplored areas. The success of each exploration attempt depends on your character's stats and the area's "fog depth."
• Encounters: You'll encounter various forest creatures, from wolves to surprisingly aggressive frogs and rabbits. Defeating them provides materials for crafting. Unlike traditional RPGs, combat is not about leveling up. Battles are avoidable, though it requires skill and luck.
• Hunter's Combat: As a hunter, you use a bow and arrow. Maintaining distance is key to attacking without being counter-attacked. If cornered, you can either attempt a risky retreat or use a flash ball provided by Foria for a guaranteed escape.
• Cloak System: Craft a cloak using materials you gather, layering up to three for stat boosts and potential life restoration. Note that your cloak can be damaged and become unusable.
• Skill Selection: Choose from a variety of randomly presented skills to enhance your abilities.

Game Features:

• Simple, intuitive gameplay with a focus on strategic thinking and resource management.
• A mysterious storyline with a unique worldview.
• Crafting and resource gathering mechanics.
• Autosave functionality (though not during battles). For a full save, exit to the main menu.

Version 1.2 Update (December 18, 2024):

Prepare for a challenging yet rewarding experience in this unique non-combat RPG!
