Quite fun, unique idea. Only thing is I'd like the controls to be less sensitive. Has the potential for many levels to be made.

Fun idea, nice polished game. This is something that could actually work in a full game - maybe on a mobile platform. Right now the biggest issue how floaty and sensitive the controls are.

It crashed when I reached the first flag...

Nice job making the game! The mechanic is really great!
Good luck with your game

Essentially what others said - good idea, good fun, finnicky controls. Well polished presentation.

Cool mechanic and fun to play/solve puzzles.

Really awesome entry.
Very polished and unique puzzle elements.
Clever implementation of the theme.

Great game! Loved the art and gameplay!

Very unique and fun idea. Well done!

Level design was pretty clever for the most part, but I gave up at the "endless climb of fire with leap of fates and water jugs". The one where you start on a platform with two fires and deadly red stuff under it. I tried it at least 30 times, but was still unable to pass it. I think I got close once, but I'm just not good enough at platformers. Felt too fast and unprecise especially when lit on fire.

Good game design and atmosphere, but the gameplay could use some fine tuning.

Love the game! I agree with Mano, the controls could use some work.

Clever idea and lots of well designed levels with plenty of variety. It took me a while to realise that the mummy could be wet, and that hitting the fire once extinguishes the water. Making the controls less sensitive and slippery would make the platforming less frustrating, especially that last level >:(

Interesting mechanic, and the amount of depth you were able to reach with the gameplay was really impressive. The graphics were neat and I loved the music. Some work on making the controls a little bit less frustrating and I would have no idea this was made within a time limit.

I really enjoyed this interpretation of the theme, and the fire/water mechanics introduced a lot more depth than I thought possible at first. These mechanics were intuitive for the most part, which is due in no small part to the excellent level design. On top of all this, the art and music were very well done. One of the best games I've seen this LD.

I think you accomplished your goal pretty well, the game can be picked up very easily. Visual and audio agree with each other and work well, and overall a pretty good submission

Really good, but yeah - controls are a bit painful, especially at that endless climb level, where I think I'll call it quits.

Like others have said, very floaty controls. Aside from that a great entry, definetely very cool mechanics with a lot of potential. I do think a little more polish would've been possible.

I greatly admire the no in-game text goal, although the percentage health meter is arguable :-)... personally I'd make that meter a major part of the ui (e.g. even stuff like fire around the edges of the screen when you're getting low, faster music, etc. to increase the panic). Some sound effects to go with the cool (if a little repetitive) music would go a long way. The controls are a little loose and it's a bit challenging to be precise with some jumps when you're on fire.

All that said, I think this definitely has the base mechanics, humour, and idea needed for a more fleshed out game and I'll keep a lookout for it post-jam if you keep working on it. Really nice job.
