Yes. All of the code and assets were created by me from scratch except for the royalty-free sounds and fonts.

Absolutely incredible! This game is a perfect blend of creativity and execution. Every detail feels well-thought-out.

Really great and relaxing game. It feels like you have many different ways to beat the levels. Awesome!

Great idea and solid execution. The physics in the building phase are a bit too strong and I was forced to reset a few times as a result, but I enjoyed my playthrough.

I like the idea. A short cozy game.

Nice game! I managed to beat all 5 levels

This is a great game! The campfire and atmosphere are very cozy. The levels are pretty challenging. The chance that the wood could burn from the fire while you are building ads to the challenge. I enjoyed this quite a bit. Well done!

Really fun! Wish it had more levels haha. I hope to see more of this game in the future! It was funny when i had built a part and i just move the last log or stone through the thing i built and it all falls haha. But then i got used to move stuff up. During the storm, the light makes a special moment!

Really fun. I'm wondering how you made it when the storm starts and the light remains under the trees!

Developer(+1)

I have a point light node in the fire that activates when the storm starts (godot). Thanks for playing!

great fun little game, takes me back to my childhood playing games on the internet during class. puzzles were simple but still hard and rewarding. great job!

Very cool game, I had a hard time with it, not gonna lie.

I think each part of this game was executed well. From the art, sound, design, implementation, it all felt just cohesive and nice. The fire as part of shelter creation was an interesting touch that was very frustrating, but an interesting challenge.

I will say the amount of force one object exerts on another during shelter creation was frustrating. little movements really pushed everything everywhere and I had to like one by one move all my building materials carefully apart from each other in the beginning(the most frustrating part of resetting).

There was a bug I noticed on the last level I guess, When I put stone or bricks on the fire, graphically it went out. but it was still burning wood. And when I clicked start storm button, It reappeared...

Other than that, the game was quite fun. Creative concept.

Submitted(+1)

Loved the take on the theme, really creative! I loved all the work you did to catch edge cases like having the wood actually catch on fire. The custom icons showing how the weather was going to act was a really nice touch as well. Great work :)

amazing puzzles! great work, i loved it.

Developer

Thanks!

Great building system! The sfx is also rather soothing, and it matches the art very well. Love the detail/challenge of accidently burning your wood, tried shaking my mouse really fast to see if it would go out.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! My gf also tried shaking the mouse to put out the flame. Maybe I should add that as a feature!
