Murderhorn
A short incremental game about a mountain.
Last week I did my first hiking with my wife. During the trip I keep thinking about an old saying: "You cannot speak of ice to a summer insect"(夏蟲不可語冰). How would a mountain feel when there's all these short-lived humans walking on top if it? Probably nothing.
I'm a big fan of short incremental games with interesting narratives, games like Digseum and 1,000,000 Shrimps. Hence the game. It's deliberately short. Because we're all just summer insects.
Hope you enjoyed it.

Hey this is super fun! Congrats!
Are you planning to keep working on it?
I'm pretty sure it's not meant to update it as they said it's meant to be short.
'Hotel owner weeps: "I put everything into this!"'
Ah, such sweet tears
Anyway, balance is honestly a bit wank, text is hard to read and goes by fairly fast, it's a nice concept all in all but could use a little more cooking
Perfectly fine for it to be just as short, simply a little smoother
Loved it! Super glad I found it.
Really cute game!
Neat game!! Love the concept of "holding the mountain accountable"
Also the quote in the description is lovely :D
short and sweet. Nice game man.
I liked the reviews
