I love the idea you had with the story and the unreal engine 5 makes the forest of everwood a quite immersive experience.

I liked the writing of the audio messages and I enjoyed the ambience of everwood.

I would like do add some minor bugs and I do have a few suggestions which are probably already on your agenda.

- The text dialog at start is a bit to long in my opinion.
Maybe work with a audio clip or for example some notes which I liked more like in the rest of the game.

- The Voice of Evelyn is okay but it loses a bit of emotion in the process. I would go for a different one with a bit more emotion.

(Could also be a personal thing or style choice.)

- The footsteps can be a bit to much. Maybe add an offset to the pitch to give it more natural feel.

- A bit more guidance would be nice. I have watched the gameplay video before playing the game so I got around really good but I can imagine if someone does not watch the video before playing they might get lost. The notifications at the upper left corner help but they are sometimes to quick and sometimes to subtle.

- The water at the river sometimes clips through the terrain.

I hope this helps! Keep working on it and it will make a good game!
