This was my first Godot project so I learned so much. I had a lot of fun with my team on making this project and we will definitely be continuing to build this game! I hope you guys have fun! It's also meant to be a difficult!

Tried out your submission. The gameplay is pretty tight for what is here. Hit detection seem to catch me when I believed I was safe. I like the concept of maintaining a high heat while not going to hot.  Good work. Caught myself burning away time ;) Unfortunately I don't see the spreading theme on display. 

Developer

definitely think you're right and I could've done a better job displaying it. I was too focused on the game-play aspect and overlooked the theme a bit, will do better in the next jam o7

Nice game very lovely game and very pollished. I love the art style, did you do it yourself?

Developer

Not all of it there were assets remodeled to fit the game better! It was my first time making art for games I was happy with it but I still have a lot to learn :D. my respect for artist definitely increased a lot after this jam lol
