About Perennial v0.9

Perennial is a survival horror game about being chased by the shadow you see out the corner of your eye when you look behind you on a dark night. -Story- Every summer when you were a kid you would hike up to Four Lake Park with your parents. Recently you realised you hadn't been there in 12 years. You decided to go camping alone. You set up camp near the Watchtower and Made a fire with 5 logs, then went fishing and caught dinner.

You fell asleep exhausted from the hike. You woke up around 4 am however. You felt an unearthly chill fill your body. Something was at the door of the tent, silently watching you sleep, it's eyes two piercing points of light. A second later it was gone. You don't feel safe, Maybe you can head to the watchtower and get help or at least feel safer. -Controls- WASD - MoveMouse Movement - LookLeft Click - InteractHold M or Tab - View Map (If you have one)F - Flashlight (No effect on gameplay)Esc - Menu Click on a firepit with 5 logs in your inventory to light a CampfireClick on a Campfire to save the game.
