Really funny concept!
The speedrunner is very funny
Great animations and incredible idea! The meta commentary is strong with this one! Got a decent chuckle out of me, well done!
That's one original bit! Interesting idea with great art.
Loved the speedrunner glitching around and the world falling apart around me, very funny. Wish there was a bit more gameplay though. (maybe having to dodge the player?)
An interesting idea but it is easy to get lost. Maybe adding like a helping arrow that would point to the next resource if you have been looking for it for a long time.
it took me 132 s to finish the game. gotta go faster!
I like the idea so much but i didnt understand what to do as a NPC ? just watch ?
Nice Concept, but I am not sure waht to do after picking the first items, maybe more hitns for the player?
Cool concept , Enjoyed watching the speed runner :)
really enjoyed that one
Great experience, as a speedrunner I have to admit it's mapping speedrunners behavior in 100% legit, no SCAM
Made me laugh multiple times. The comedic timing was on point and the idea is just pure fun. I do wish the gameplay had more to it though.
Really great game. I love the idea and all of the visuals and sound effects. It also feels super polished. I'd just love for it to have a bit more actual Gameplay.
Still a great game. Keep it up!
Good execution on a silly idea!
Ironically I think I might have broken it by trying to go fast for that speedun timer, I picked up the first item and then went to the bottom of the map to find items over there.
I guess the pickup order is fixed, but doing this somehow broke the speedrunner triggers 🤣
She was still doing stuff, you just couldn't see any of it except the demon
It was really fun to play and it was quite polished, I enjoyed the "story" but I think it could have a bit more to it!
This is an art piece, and its beautiful! Games are art and this fulfills that to the highest extent. Great work from the visual and sound artists, and good idea to the whole team, it was entertaining while also being great art.
I am torn. On one hand, it's more a joke than an actual game. On the other hand it's an extremely well executed joke, and i can't deny i was having fun the whole time.
However fun it was to watch, I do wish the mechanics were more engaging and I was doing more stuff aswell
Lol. This was great. I'm not sure what the interactions were for? But very funny.
It would be greatly appreciated if you rated my game as well! https://outercloudstudio.itch.io/fire-swap
