I really liked the drawings for the environment, I wished the character sprite was hand drawn too!

Submitted

Wow, in an insignificant amount of time you have made a beautiful game, certainly among the best I played during the jam, impeccable graphics, original gameplay and wonderful drawings. The only thing I would improve would be the main menu which is empty compared to how the game looks. Other than that, great job!

You can thanks Vaumer, our artist for the amazing art!! They really had to speedrun irl but they still managed to polish the first two levels within such a tight timeframe!! And sorry for the main menu, the only setting I could have added was the "sound level" and therefore we prefered to focus on the game itself. As it was really hard to create everything we wanted under the gamejam's deadline x))

Submitted

It has amazing graphics, I loved it! Keep it up

Developer

Thank you for your time!!!

Submitted

Great game, I swore I played something similar before. Turns out I did! Played Aten: Wandering Fire recently

Developer

Yep! We wanted to try something different with Aten's main mechanics and push it's boundaries! We are really happy with the result :3 Thank you!!!

Submitted

Beautiful game! This is a very unique interpretation of the theme, and I had fun with the variety.

Developer

That's very kind of you! We are glad our idea was your taste! :D

The game is fun and i like the aesthetics. For a speedrunner there are a lot of oppurtunities to get better, you can learn the map and best path, the best way to switch between flame and movement. Really strong gameplay and mechanics.

Developer

It's a real pleasure to see that some people understand the key aspect of the game <3. They are several possible paths, some obviously better than others. But most importantly, you have a few little "secret" spots which allows you to reach some lights & start a fire streak! 

Submitted

I think the first potential shortcut I saw was in the first stage after the stairs with the face, I thought maybe I could reach the fire to the right with good positioning. Did you put the face there as an intentional hint? I could really see this as a puzzle platformer. Exploring some old temple/ruins with movement and combination puzzle to progress.

Sort of! I thought about the light's locations after seeing the complete art. And well, it was an amazing place to put one! Speaking about the art, it is highly inspired by the fantastic manga "Blame!". We really love the idea of exploring the endless pathways of ruins from a fallen civilization!

Nice map

Developer

Thank you for enjoying our art!

Submitted

It was fun to explore the map. The torches are satisfying to light and globally the game looks polished thanks to the animations and light effects ;)


Developer

Much appreciated! My favorite effect so far is the one once the door opens! I'm really proud of this one :3

i like the asthitecs and the juicy lighiting, but the gameplay is a little on the slower side. over all, a great game

Developer(+1)

Thanks for your review! Gameplay is slow only if you don't snowball- The game can be finish in less than 1:30 if you collect the lights in series and asap! (while a normal run is like 5 mins). If you don't snowball on the other hand, you indeed lose a lot of time but that's on purpose. If at any points you are really slow, it means that you did something wrong (too slow or not the correct path!) Because you can finish the whole game in full speed! ;3

Submitted

Cool game idea. I love how juicy lighting the torches and moving the fireball feels

Developer

Thank you very much! :D

I really love the art style and soundtrack of this game. Just as a point of improvement, maybe the torches could be better indicated since it took me quite a bit to spot them. Overall, solid concept.

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your kind review- We wanted to encourage the players to embrace the environment by exploring with the fire ability! All the torches can be found by following each small path. Nevertheless, there are multiple location which allows you to be in range of certain torches, saving precious time and allow you to snowball the overheat and speed! Those locations can be indeed difficult to find but once you got them it makes the games easily speedrunnable!
