Fun concept ! Like the art, character reminds me a little of the To the moon saga. Controls for putting out a fire are a little bit bothersome though, it takes a bit away from the fun

Developer

Thank you so much for liking our art and concept!! Controls are the only thing we not proud of T.T but it was really fun making a game in 4days

Loved the concept, loved the hectic nature, agree with others that a bit more polish with the controls would have made a more fun experience! 

Developer

Thank you so so much!!! we agree with everyone about the control and we're practicing to improve!!

its very nice i like the style of it, but it is too hard for the first time, i think there should be more time to do every thing, but you can make the time more later on , the hit box for the chest is not good , i spam E but nothing happens

when i near the chest, but very good concept  

Developer

Thank you really much!! We will improve everything, so happy to hear such a comment!

I agree with another comment that said some hit boxes must have been off, I wasn't able to find any of the  intractable objects other than the generator.  Overall I think its a fun and hectic idea and with more time I'm certain it would have come out even more polished.  Great art as well.

The concept is great, but the controls simply aren't good enough to support the pace of the game. I died multiple times near the fire extinguisher, spamming 'E' and adjusting my position, completely unable to pick it up. The couple of times I did manage to pick it up, I was still unable to put out the fire, whether the room was big or small. I don't know where the hitboxes were exactly, but I do know that they weren't where I expected them to be.

Glad to hear your comment! We are so happy that the art and concept are most liked by people. We surely will improve our gameplay!

First time through died so fast, but once I figured everything out this gave me so much stress in a good way. Good job!
