It is a chilly and grey October day; perfect weather for an afternoon hunt. You exit your truck and head down the trail towards a deer blind you had set up a few weeks earlier while scouting the forest. A thick fog hangs in the air, making visibility difficult. As the leaves crunch underneath your feet, you decide that you must hurry North to the blind, as you only have a few hours until dark.

But when the darkness consumes the forest, you find yourself tracking an elusive buck through a maze of deer trails. Deep within the trail, a horrifying revelation awaits you.

I enjoyed this very much! Are you interested in a transcript? I noted some small miscellaneous typos etc. which did not affect my enjoyment.

Sorry I did not see this before. I am so glad you enjoyed it. Transcripts are appreciated but I understand if you are well past that idea by now. Haha. Thanks!

Hey, no problem, I have let things slide, myself! It is tough to go back to a completed project.

I will see what I can do. If nothing else I can poke through the source code.

If you're looking to put out a post-comp maintenance release (doesn't have to be anything big) let me know and I can give it a look.
