Great idea, some rough edges – The Deer God Review

I love the graphics in this game. I love being a deer. I hate the spikes and being killed by things offscreen I have to guess at because I can't scroll around and see what's there.The controls, especially the swipe thing, didn't work well - using the button feature worked better. Still, attacking an enemy can hurt friendlies at the same time. When I put items in slots other than 1 I didn't see them onscreen. If you die and regenerate as a baby, it's very easy to become permanently stuck in a place with no food and no choice but to start a new game because you can't jump high enough to overcome whoever obstacle. I doubt very much I will ever get to the point where "fire" shoots out of my deer's antlers, as the review says, because I'll never be that good at it. I'd prefer a less violent and more exploratory game. If you're thinking that this is an rpg where you get to be a deer, don't get this game. If you are into platformers and endless runners, this might be more your speed.
