I liked the concept, and the art is really cute ^^ the way the light works is really fun, I think, even if sometomes it gets difficult to find your way and your friends... Maybe a map (that gets discovered as you walk around) would help? Or some hints, maybe.

But overal it was fun to play ^^

If you expand this game, you can get a good project!

For example:

Add more abilities for the player.
Give the player hints about the next light (sometimes its too boring to wandering around)
Make soft lights (add transparency gradient)
Add enemies for a more engaging process.

I will wait for updates :)

This is a neat little game. Good job! I found it a bit difficult to know where I had been before and got lost a couple times. Some way to keep track of where you've been would have been cool.

The game is kind of interesting and does relate with the theme. I think that the visibility aspect does have something to do with the fire mechanic, but combined with the fact that you walk very slowly, it's frustrating to play.

In my opinion a bit of action would really help your game. But the atmoshpere was chill and the graphics were cute. Good job!

Game feels like it has a solid start, but it's missing a fail condition to solidify the loop.

Yeah I agree, I wanted to add ways of failing, but I wasn't sure how to make it without annoying the player and in the end I left that out to have time to finish everything else. Thank you for checking out my game! :)

I really enjoyed your game. At first, the flame is slow and little visibility. I felt like I was back in Pokemon Yellow/Red/Blue without the HM-Flash. The fact that the beginning is frustrating makes finding the flames that much more rewarding. For me, each flame was a huge relief on getting more speed and visibility. Very nice. Also, the art and music are awesome.

I loved the graphics ! Nice and cute pixelart ! To be honest, it was a bit frustrating to play, the flame is just too slow to my taste ! But I think that with a bit more balance, it could be funnier to play !

Good job overall ! :D

Thanks for checking out my game :D!

Really liked the atmosphere of the game! I think it would have been nice if with every fire gained you would change in appearance, but it was fine since you would get those bonuses. Destroying the water piles was satisfying and the last flame really was cool. Great game! :)
