The idea of this puzzle is that if the player makes wrong moves his character will freeze or suffocate to death. Player has only one chance to fix his damaged spaceship. He also have only one spaceship :D"},{"author_name":"Mekuri","author_uid":"20130","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 4:34pm","epoch":1387297740,"text":"I really like how solid this game feels. I like the idea a lot, but it's sad, as you mentioned yourself, that there's no audio, that would really have added to the experience. I think you used the Theme very well- It's a fairly easy theme to use imo.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Very good game, felt proffesional. - Now go add sound in a non-competition version :P"},{"author_name":"Scifer","author_uid":"32059","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 7:34pm","epoch":1387308540,"text":"I agree with the comments above, some audio would have really added to the atmosphere of this game.

Right Arrow or Space to Skip Cut-scenes.\r\n\r\nInstructions: Navigate the Mechanic [the green square] and use a Fridge [the red terminal] to capture the Litoxyde spawn [the moving flame]. All boxes can be slided by pushing them in the desired direction. The goal is to plug the hole in the spacecraft shell with a captured Litoxyde. You'll get only one chance to do that - often only one shot with a fridge will be possible at all, so spare your moves and plan the enemy behaviour well. You can foresee where the Litoxyde may be going by measuring it's attraction with the flammable items [the white boxes].\r\nIn the post-compo version the enemy's target is marked with red. Also watch for oxygene and temperature levels.\r\n\r\nI tried to incorporate both FGL competition and the LudumDare event, combining the themes \"Freezing\" and \"You only get one\" in this game. Originally I planned to submit a Compo entry but after the initial 48h I was not satisfied with the result and decided to invest a day more.\r\n\r\nI was looking close after the feedback given here in the comments and applied numerous of udates based on them.\r\nBesides all the improvements, the updates include 4 additional stages, tightening the A.I. and finaly some sound and music!\r\nI took sounds from my LD26 submission, the music is the awesome track Shapeshifter by Clearside (CREDITS)\r\n\r\nThe current Post-Jam built is version 0.63 (the submission for refference is 0.2)\r\nPlease if you are in a mood to leave feedback I'll be glad if you reffer the post-compo version.\r\n\r\nI want to Thank You All for the kind words and for trying my game !:)","title":"Burning Fridges"}
