This was a great game, relates to the theme well. Controls felt good, loved the visuals and I liked the idea of dying to light peoples fires I thought that was pretty neat. Could easily see this being a more fleshed out game, nice work!
Amazing game with a really creative concept that fits the theme perfectly. overall a great game.
good job!
I absolutely loved your game. I am a huge fan of lighting in a game and yours was done perfectly. The whole mood of the game made it fun to play and it felt really polished. Definitly a 5 stars. Could you also possibly rate my game if you have a moment?

That's a coal story bro!
The visuals are great and the art looks polished, and you have put a lot of thought into creating a really cool atmosphere and a likable protagonist. The game input is a bit weird, you can move left and right with A and D but can't jump with W. It took me a while to realize that you should play with the arrow keys. The instructions were unskippable. With a bit of polish this is a game that I can easily myself playing in my free time.
Good job!
A cool platformer where you have to die to make fire.
The Idea of the game and the movement is very good. There are many things to build the levels like the lighter (these glowing floating balls when you touch them) or the falling platforms. Every level is simple to navigate (even with little light you yourself emmit and the fireplaces you drop) but they are not too simple so you actually have to die to know where your going.
Good Job :)
Thank you very much for your comments! It make us really happy!
