How is your game related to the Theme and Special Object?
Theme: Freeze — All enemies (fire wraiths) can be temporarily frozen solid, turning them brittle and shatterable. The icy atmosphere with drifting snowflakes and blue palette reinforces the theme throughout.

Special Object: Whistle — The whistle is the player's only weapon, pressing SPACE blows it to emit a freeze ripple that freezes all wraiths, creating the core gameplay loop of freeze, shatter, survive, repeat.

Cool idea, I suggest to add some power ups and different enemies :) Maybe expandable map over time.

Amazing game! Very satisfying when you can shatter a bunch of the flames at once!

The execution on the game is amazing, everything worked perfectly , i just wait for them to come near me and then freeze me.. maybe a dash or a sprint would also be a cool addition to the game!!

Cute little arcade game! Theme was well implemented and there's some fun back and forth with freezing before they heat back up. Would love to see more enemies if you make more versions!

Love it! Simple but really well made. I would suggest to add a combo score since there's a nice gameplay routine where you can gather the flame together to kill them all in one freeze. Really great work! I loved the sound design too!
