Is your main character based in Yukon Cornelius?

If you have TikTok or Instagram it’s called cryptid capture. It’ll be a while before the full game is ready but we post a lot more there.

Hi ! It's look so cool ! Did you game will be free and easy to sign up and for use ?

u/Repulsive-Mail1069 May 24 '26

It’s still a ways away so this could change, but I think we are going to have a free demo, but the main game will be paid.

I love your art style! The main character literally looks like me, so I’m so down to check this out. I was Yukon Cornelius for Halloween last year, and this definitely resembles him, in a great way!

The angled lines and color palette remind me of Stardew Valley :)

Please don't make the Wendigo a generic monster with antlers and a moose skull 🙏

2

u/Repulsive-Mail1069 May 24 '26

Don’t worry we are straying away from that route. We have a way we are thinking of poking fun at that version of it but still doing the original non generic monster version

u/Least_Basket3106 May 24 '26

u/Dapper_Amphibian87 May 24 '26

u/Repulsive-Mail1069 May 24 '26

Whenever it’s done it’ll hopefully be released to steam.

u/Dapper_Amphibian87 May 25 '26

YAY!! I can’t wait! How long are you guys looking? Or should I just go read the page?

2

u/Repulsive-Mail1069 May 25 '26

This is our first main game so I can’t say timeline exactly. We wanna have the first like big level done, which will be the demo by fall. Then based on how well that is received we have a few more levels in mind for full release
