I really enjoyed getting in to character as an angry old ferryman while trying to slowly work out what exactly was going on and what my part in it all was and was so wrapped up in trying to save the people leaving the island that when things started to go south I just saved the last few people and ran straight to my car and escaped and had to replay it so I could experience dying, 10/10 would yell over the radio again
This game was different from a lot of others, from the two way perspective of either assisting with the towns folk in their rituals, or to sayin screw it, and ditching the job all together.
Even with such short endings, including the funny deer in headlights ending. It shows just how much people may know things compared to what is actually occurring.
My question, and the hope it would've been explained, and also spoilers, is...
Was the original ferryman apart of the ritual? Did he intentionally call off on that specific day for a "Broken leg"? Or, was it more of he didn't know what was going on and got lucky? Did the towns folk have something to do with it and set up an accident so that the original ferryman could live? Questions... Questions.
Either way, I enjoyed the experience, it was short and sweet, but delivered exceptionally!

Thank you Olinkalex, for a stormy, booming feeling of eldritch horror!🌹
5.8/10 - Good idea, poor game design and execution, (25-45 mins), this game has an interesting concept as you transport passengers on cars across to pieces of land, this concept had me at looking forward to what the game would offer but I ended up being so disappointing. The game puts in some type of air of tension through the lore however it felt like there was a nonexistent threat as you just hear a few noises throughout the game until the ending.
The buildup to the game was slow and mind numbing as you get crumbles of lore going in between islands and all you do to go between islands is hold one button down which gets very monotonous after doing it a good few times. An additional thing with this game was that I died 20 mins unintentionally by getting hit by a car and having to restart. I understand it's a special ending but having to replay the same sequence is dull so having a death mechanic system doesn't work for this game as it's essentially just a walking sim.
The games ending wasn't entirely surprising and it was too abrupt in my opinion but overall it was an okay ending. I did like the intro to the game and some of the lore but this game as a whole needs huge overhauling as the concept has potential. For me the biggest issue is that this game for what it is, should be 10-20 mins shorter than it is as it feels too long and it drags!
I really enjoyed this game, not many Jumpscares right away but.. the ambiance was good enough definitely had creepy at max most of the time. I had to talk a lot to keep my mind occupied from being scared, that ending twist woo boy though! It mind blew me! Thanks for the opportunity to play this game, was short and sweet as well!
Don't play this motherfucking game, this son of a bitch game is so boring and stupid, fuck the motherfucking woman of this motherfucking game, fuck the creator of this motherfucking game, fuck the motherfucking woman of this motherfucking game

Thanks for playing, as for the questions I honestly prefer letting players try and figure it out.
I want to play try it out but also paranoid when windwos spits this:
Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk.

This game is simple and unique. I like that style
Wait til the end! This is scary!!
Had a fun time playing this one! Wasn't expecting that ending. Check out the new video!
just us and the ferry...

It was a short but sweet experience. I could see this being a demo for a longer game and I mean that in the best possible way.
What a FUN & SCARY time! The ending was crazy!
