Congrats on the jam! Very earned, for how addicted I got to this after my first play!
I do feel like the enemies are slightly over powered, since killing the deer or clouds takes up so much energy and I can't reasonably run from them. My best playthroughs are just the ones where I get lucky and they don't appear, or I can shoot off a firebolt and light a tree in the distance for the cloud to chase.
I've thus far only beaten it once, and admittedly, I kinda cheesed it. Realized that if you don't skip the intro tutorial and don't do any shift-dashing, it seems like it doesn't fully load up the enemies until you're nearly warm enough, so I was able to power up quick and burn a large chunk of forest to just run through and gather fuel then take out the tree. Trying to do it authentically too!
Very well made, can't wait to see what else you come up with!!

Here I lay, a lowly flame, hugging the last evergreen, praying for it to light.
