The game is really cool and there's nice music in the background. There's no art which makes the game view simplistic in a way. Nice game mechanic, although it was a little bit too hard to control, but a little bit of tuning and play testers could solve this problem in a short time. I know the game is designed to be a rage game but it is still important to make the player more responsible for his movement.
Also, the game has a really good potential in mobile!
Good job 👍
Wow, we've got similar game mechanics! The music was also nice. The game is pretty hard though - that big fall trap was pretty unneccessary imo. And I just can't get further than the blue section - the player character is waaay too sensitive to the flamethrower and slides too much on the surfaces.
Annoying... Love it. Really fun and satisfying to learn the movement! I do think the overheat part could have been implemented better but I can see the connection.
If feel the same, it took me over 10min to finish it... but i had fun.
I had the idea that the flamethrower could only be used for a certain amount of time,and slowy overheat. But that would be realy annoying: you would get stuck and have no way to move, get overheated midair and fall into spikes, cant get as fast as you want. That would make the gamplay worse so i didnt implement it.
Gameplay was really fun! Graphics were simple but effective and I liked the smile on the player's face. I see the "heat" element, but not necessarily the "overheat" element. Still really fun though!
It was actually really fun! And i loved the music. I just wish the game was longer and it had some sound effects.
