Really liked this game, reminded me of games similar to Minecraft parkour challenges. Nicely integrated tutorial with the actual gameplay.

I love the ambience, but platforming is a bit too unforgiving)

nice art, cool game. You did a nice job putting this together under the constraints of a game jam!

Failed to read the 'serviceWorker' property from 'Navigator': Service worker is disabled because the context is sandboxed and lacks the 'allow-same-origin' flag.

I wonder if you can get this error fixed. The game it's based on is pretty cool though.

Really nice audio and I dig the 10 second flame mechanic. Very well executed springs. Fun game!

Great idea and great realization! Beautiful graphics and like all the little riddles with lamps.
Also, the storyline seems interesting (but I didn't finish the game).
I think getting your torch out of flame could be "punished" more, because it seems that there is no way to "loose" the game now.
One of the most interesting ones I played so far! :blush:

Awesome game!! The art is great (I really loved the mountains in the background) and the fire mechanic is interesting but what really stood out out to me is the level design. All the chalegese were fun and difficult so playing thorough them all was a blast!

@amac thanks! The lamp levels were... rushed, to say the least. Hope it was fun in the end.

Great entry! Very polished little platformer with a great mechanic! The lanterns were pretty clever but definitely spiked in difficulty! Also love the fire particle effects!

Such a cute game! I love the way you implemented the ten seconds without making it feel like it was overwhelming! The graphics were really cute and polished and the gameplay was very fun! The game was challenging at times with the jumping and sometimes I faced confusion on which direction the level wanted me to go, which led to me accidently going in circles, however I think this is a wonderful and cute game! Great job!

I found a creative way to get stuck. haha ![stuck chicken.png](///raw/947/94/z/523bd.png) but I really enjoyed it and will definitely give it some more tries! The campfires being a sort of save point was a nice touch. Some music would be a nice addition, but the sound design that was there was well done.

It was very cool game. Controls works as intended. My only issue is it look like the chicken got 4 legs

@fiat-ventus sorry about that! The lamp levels were rushed and didn't get play tested. There are some debug options to light your torch or go back to the last campfire just in case, though we didn't make that evident.

Got stuck where @fiat-ventus did as well after getting the last egg. Sad. I don't want to do the mushroom course again :cry:
