How does your game relate to the theme?
Spirit of Fire & Water is a mobile puzzle-action game that deeply integrates the concept of polarity through its mechanics and design. The duality of Fire and Water represents opposite properties—Fire burns wooden barriers and kills grass enemies, while Water navigates underwater and kills fire enemies. This interplay of opposing forces directly ties into the rule of having poles with contrasting abilities. All enemies are universally attracted to the player, creating a gameplay tension that aligns with the rule of attraction toward a specific object or direction. The game's core mechanics emphasize diametrical opposition, with puzzles requiring players to balance destructive (Fire) and restorative (Water) tendencies to progress. By making polarity essential for solving puzzles, unlocking pathways with keys, and collecting a star to complete levels, Spirit of Fire & Water ensures that polarity is not just a theme but the foundation of its gameplay, making it inseparable from the experience.

The game uses a free scene from the Unity Asset Store, which has been customized and includes only trees, clouds, ground, and sky. Additionally, sound effects were sourced from Pixabay, all of which are free for public use. All other assets, including character designs, animations, and game elements, have been created by me.

art is very detailed, it looks good. the idea of different types of sprites can kill different enemies is nice. some things felt janky yet is was a good experience overall.
I made it till the spiky area and could not able to find my way.
Thank you for trying the game. and thanks for your feedback. in the spiky area i should have give a hint. but i forgot. you just have to burn the left wooden fence and then you will find your way. and the game is not end on the spikey area theres more left. like 50%. if you have gone to the final lock. then you have to go back where you spawn and then you will find a key to unlock the final lock.
