“Is it better to out monster the monster or be quietly devoured?”

Monster in the making is a game where something follows not only you but also all the living beings in the forest. While you try to put distance between yourself and what stalks you will encounter various spirits that will need help. You must decide would you sacrifice your chances of escape to save others, or would you rather preserve yourself above all else.

Gameplay loop

Walk → see a spirit → talk to the spirit → choose to help or not → lose` or gain distance

Details:

The spirits you will talk to will have various personal stories that they will share with you. Some would want help so can they help or go to their loved ones or some would want help so they can save themselves. The player must decide based on the stories of the spirits if they will give life essence to the spirits, or steal life essence from them. There is no ignore option. If they decide to help they will lose distance, if they decide not to they will gain distance. The game ends when either the player loses too much distance or they gain enough distance so they can escape from the darkness

When the Darkness is closer to you the environment will change: sounds will disappear and colors will be removed.
