Here is its eulogy, a collection of the kind words written about it while still among the living. They shall live on forever in its place.

You need wood to survive. But as days pass enemies spawn and try to destroy the flame. You can not destroy the enemies, they are made out of water, you are made out of plasma.

Try to survive for 10 days or more.

Day 25, level 12. Not much to this game. Like someone stated earlier, if you just run around the edge of the map, you are pretty much never going to get hit. I've never liked random spawn. There is no real strategy or skill involved, just luck and/or some kind of exploit(like circling around the edge of the map).

Honestly I couldn't see the spiders until around Day 5 when I adjusted my view of the screen to an extreme angle. It would be nice if you changed the ground color to something lighter. Also It would be nice if you added a light element. I was thinking the whole time that I am fire I shoule emit light. It should make easier to see things neear me. I also thought I might be able to see the spiders better when daylight came but nothing changed. So unless I adverted my concentration to the top of the screen I honestly didnt know if it was night or day.

I made it to Level 8 and Day 8.

Ultimately, what it seemed to boil down to was running around in a wide circle to kite most of the enemies, and then the enemies which spawned were the only tough ones to avoid. It might have been my luck, but they suddenly started spawning at least five times faster when I got to day 7.

It'd be nice if the flame can employ a temporary mode (or burn something) to grant it immunity or the ability to kill spiders. It'd also be nice if the trees had a slight growing animation. Popping up trees is somewhat silly, I think. :p Could also have a burning trail. Grass isn't immune to fire!

I'd also love to know how many trees and shrubs I burned in my wake. :o

Finally, another thing that'd be nice is to make it into something like 3 factions, where you must avoid say, rangers as well. The spiders and the rangers are also trying to kill each other. All in all, simple enough to play!

Wow thank you forthe great review! I will keep the ideas and suggestions you gave me in mind and try to add them in the next release! :D

Level 7. I like your game but just to let you know that the box and the colours are abit eyesore. I like the game very much :D

The biggest problem with this game was the spiders. The disclaimer says that they are hard to see, but then they are also fast and appear almost randomly. After a certain point you simply can't get trees fast enough to stay alive.

Every game needs a challenge... :D
