This is one of my favourite entries I've played for a game jam, I really love the aesthetics and soundtrack (though the speech sfx were a little grating for me). I kept having this foreboding feeling while walking backward up the path that there would be something spooky ahead. Would love to see a full game for this. :)

Game Description
A Foddian Short-Hike-Alike about climbing a windy mountain by candlelight.
How does your game tie into the theme?
The central mechanic is focused on blocking chaotic winds to, in turn, control the chaos of your flickering flame. The games theming and writing also evokes ideas of chaos and control through literary, political, and philosophical homage and absurdism.
