Wow... a biblical game... This is the first time I have ever seen someone made a biblical game for itch.io jam, and this is your first non-tutorial game?

Before I criticize the game itself I just need to correct one thing though: Lot only fled Sodom; Gomorrah was just another city that was judged for the same sins -- so the game name should be "Lot of Sodom"

Now onto the game itself:

  • The graphics is such a great pixel art. It is simplistic with low resolution yet I love it. My only complain is that the first time I played it I didn't know what the danger of a tree was (missed the down arrow the first time); turns out it was a branch sticking out huh... I think to show the danger better you could've made the "dangerous leaf" having brighter color :P
  • The audio is also simplistic and fits really well with the pixel art -- giving this 8-bit-ish vibe
  • Now mood wise I believe it can have a lot of improvements. First off with the fire only grazing the left side of the screen, it doesn't really scream "danger" don't you think? If I were you I would've made the fire travel slower and diagonally, filling more parts of the screen. Also I think the background should be reddish hue (the event took place at dawn too so it's appropriate) and maybe even add some fire and brimstone in the background too to speak more danger vibe.
  • Overall it fits the theme I suppose. It is a big stretch to the theme, and very unexpected but very creative interpretation -- love it.

Overall good work here. It can have some improvements, but it is really good for your first non-tutorial game and for something made in just three days.
