Very cool concept and here there are event two factors that fir to the theme. Fist of all the ball is connected to you and secondly the two life bars are joint together, because if one is empty you will die.

The graphics look very cute and the sound design is fitting well. The only thing is that the controls of the ball are a bit wonky but nevertheless a very, very cool game!

The tiny character was beautiful I like the pixel art style. I just keep making circles to kill the monsters XD

very fun and original game, i just think the music is a little repetitive, but other than that, this game is cool :D

The fire completely went out but the game kept going until my health ran out. Not sure if that was the intention.

Other than that, I really dig the art and the title screen music! Can’t wait to see what you do next year.

Very cool approach to the theme. I really enjoyed the graphics. Good job with the sounds and the interesting player's and campfire's life twist!

I like the idea of the fireplace is your health, and the character design and music were adorable!

Cute characters and great physics. Just spinning around felt great. Awesome work!

Honestly swinging the ball around was a lot of fun!

The ball seemed a bit slippery and hard to control and I didn't get what having the fire out did. Interesting concept though.

I love the art and the concept. It feels really hard to control, which seems somewhat intentional, but I didn't find the controls to be much fun. I also wish there was more sound and feedback when hitting an enemy with the ball and chain. Nice job!

My game is very very much like yours lol. But great job! the music might not fit the game so much... but you have a good gameplay loop. Awesome job mi amigo!
