Great lighting and I love the fact that you took the time to do proper camera controls! The enemies felt a bit too fast for me though (or at least I couldn't see the twig fellas coming because they were hard to see outside of the light). My twig counter never went up so I could never restore health or restore fires :(

Well, I appreciate the player movement speed, but I was able to run right off the level. Also, I never seemed to be able to pick up a twig, I ran over half a dozen but my number never went up.

I found it hard to understand what I was supposed to be doing at the beginning, and one small bug I found is the player can leave the map and walk around with no limits.  That being said I really love the art, the player character is so awesome and I love the animation on him.  The lighting effects were AWESOME.  Very well done I really enjoyed this game.  Ooo also I forgot but the movement felt really nice a smooth, I really enjoyed how the character moves and how the camera interacts with the mouse

The graphics - especially the player and the blue blob enemy - are so cute! :)
