From the Developer

"Thank you for taking the time to look at my game. This is the first VR game that I have made and I sincerely hope you enjoy playing through it as much as I enjoyed making it for you. I admit... I may have made the game a wee bit too hard as the puzzles ramp up, some will enjoy that, just be observant and you will get through. But also always remember, being able to lose items if you drop them into the swamp will be harsh if you are not careful. I hope you have a great time trying to escape the swamp... or die trying." Chris 'TWiG' Jelen - Steaming Pile Of Games
