It's so satisfying to fall for a long period of time precisely into a fire (without jumping), it's so satisfying! I was able to beat the game, I'll admit that I didn't take the time to read every power-ups (rating closing soon) so I don't really know what they're doing, but I still had a lot of fun without that so I guess it's a good thing :p

Your flame is the countdown... a clock that never stops draining, made physical. You read the countdown off yourself.

Interesting concept. Easy to learn mechanics. Really good game.

Ultra-Secret Space ProgramVery cool game, and interesting take on the countdown mechanic. I also appreciated the way you have a simple concept / mechanic and just build up on it with the powerups. The SFX was also cool, but I admit I would've loved to hear some music too (and if you ever make a full release and are looking for a musician...) Other than that, excellent work!

SHOW DOWN at high noonCool game.
I liked the color scheme and graphics, shaders.
But SFX, please make it more enjoyable next time :)

THEY WILL DESCENDA quite honestly amazing game. Unique idea, fun gameplay, a little challenging, but not too too hard (which is rare in gamejam games, as balancing is the first thing many ppl lose). Great game :D

Kitchen KnightmaresFun little endless faller! I like the variety of upgrades.
The graphics are somewhat basic, but the color palette is excellent, and the result is beautiful.
I think a slightly more zoomed-out field would be more helpful. I had trouble figuring out where I was going.

Flight-Out!Its really fun.
My one complaint is that horizontal movement and steering is kinda slow so sometimes makes seem impossible to steer into a vigil on time.

Glungus Clicker: Final BattleI liked the art style a lot. I would love to see more roguelike power ups here!

Shelf LifeCool way to handle the theme, is a creative game. The artwork is great and I liked the audio used, was satisfying making it down the wells. It took a little bit to figure out the different upgrades, but was well paced and easy to lose track of time playing.

Pizza Dude's Got 30 SecondsI loved this game! It is so creative and the story is very touching. The game animations are beautiful!!

Threat Level: LlamaDirectionality is a bit too much of a challenge! I understand is the core difficulty to make the dimming/countdown feel contraining buuut I could be a little bit more skewed towards the player, at least on the first 60 seconds of the game!
Aside from that it's a clever approach to the theme, the art is great and the environment very cohesive which makes me wanna play it more honestly.
