Really awesome artwork! I love the animation of the character with the hat bobbing up and down.

This is really great, the platforming feels good, like classic Mega Man, slower movement but precise. Dying felt fair because it was clear what could be improved in the next attempt. The visual presentation is the highlight, lots of nice little details like the character bobbing sprite, the desynchronized fire animations, and the way the moving platforms slow down as they approach. Use of sound effects is great as well. Some music would help build the atmosphere too!
The water shooting has some quirks that took getting used to, but are not necessarily negative. If you stand really close to a flame, the water will arc over it. It makes sense with the physics and encourages the player to manage their spacing more, but was a bit jarring at first. Having to hold down the button for a bit before the first water splash comes out makes the control feel a little less responsive.
Would really love to see more levels with this concept, feels like there is a lot of potential for a larger game here!

Don't Burn Out!wow what a great in depth review! I only had a morning free to work on it so I couldn’t go to crazy but it’s nice to see you picked up on some of the little touches I managed to squeeze in.
I agree with your comments. If I did it again I’d definitely have some water come out at the start of the animation, and probably add things so the velocity of the character effects the ejected water, etc.
Thanks for taking the time to give such a thoughtful response!
Love the color choice in this one! Wonderful gameplay, and the death animation took me out 😭 5/5

Hellfire aheadGreat concept and graphics with excellent color usage. I suggest increasing the speed of the player, the moving platforms, and the refill rate. The use of the mouse, as mentioned in previous comments, is a really interesting feature to experiment with. Congratulations!

Trail of PowderI recommend assigning more accessible keys. But it's a good game with nice graphics. :D
