About Campfire

Campfire is a 1–4 player cooperative survival horror game set in a cursed forest. The players wake up at a campsite beside a campfire. The forest is mostly dark and hostile. Light provides safety.

The loop

1. Wake up at the campsite.
2. Maintain the campfire.
3. Prepare equipment.
4. Explore the forest during safer periods or with portable light.
5. Find resources, clues, useful items and encounters.
6. Return to the campsite.
7. Survive the dangerous dark period.
8. Sleep once during the cycle.
9. The surrounding forest changes.
10. Repeat until the conditions required to escape are discovered.

Rules of the forest

• The campfire is the main safe zone.
• Darkness without sufficient light is dangerous.
• Portable light such as torches allows limited exploration during darkness.
• Sleeping advances the cycle and regenerates or rearranges the surrounding forest.

Where it stands

The current build is a prototype focused on that core loop. It runs locally; multiplayer is planned but not implemented yet. The devlogs follow the work as it happens.
