I wasn't able to get the web player working, but the game *looks* great, I love the sprites! Definitely a good entry in the humor category as well based on the description and good use of theme too. Wish I could play :(

neither web player nor download seem to run for me, but the characters and env look so cute I really hope you can get it working, would love to play :smile:
This looks sooo cute but didn't run in my browser :( I'll definitely be checking back though because I'd love to play it
Fun game! The graphics are great and the game fit the theme well. I would say adding music and sound effects, even simple ones, would go a long way in making the game more enjoyable, as right now it is a bit bland. However, the particle effects are a step in the right direction.
Also, consider adding an arrow to show where the player will go, as sometimes I found that Kiru went somewhere different to where I intended.
Apart from that I enjoyed the game! I would love to play it again if you fix up those few things :)
Download works fine. Really fun to smash everything on screen haha!
17743! That was bonkers. I haven't click-spammed that hard since my StarCraft days!
Having some kind of object that you have to avoid might make the experience a little bit more engaging. That being said, this works really well as kind of a reckless romp through the forest, which fits with you being a FIRE ELEMENTAL and all. I'm excited to show this to my kid in the morning.
@0xwavy @hypernoodlejon @maymay Web Player is working now on Itch.io (Brotli Compression was crashing the player) ^ Link above
@square-wave "I’m excited to show this to my kid in the morning." this made my morning. thank you
I am playing, and sudenly I realize it's been 15min of clicking, and everytime the time is up, I start a new game without even noticing :smiley:
Nice one, and kind of... addictive ! Maybe it's the grinding effect.
I love te graphics, and all three bonuses are well designed.
Awesome game! Enjoyed playing this one, I like the simplicity of the mechanics and the relaxing gameplay, I appreciate the art , and this has very good replay value, congratulations! keep it up!
Nice combination of cute graphics and a relaxing game pace. I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but I didn't feel the need to replay it as much as some of the other commenters. I think I might the kind of person that needs some kind of defined end goal to continue trying again. Oh, my score was only around 700 something.
super cute graphics and enjoyable gameplay. Great job!
The graphics are nice, the scattering of particles when you bang or use bombs in a row is unnerving, and unfortunately there is no sound.When I finish my first game (about 1000 points), continue the game and a new map will be generated! But the scores will remain, and it might be better to record the scores of each level as a leaderboard.
This is a fun little game. I like the idea and the visuals is good. Some music and perhaps some sound effects would have made the game better, but it is okay for a compo game. Overall a pretty good jam game. Well done.
Nice sprites! And it feels very dynamic with time slowing down on mouse hold and with different velocity depending on the mouse position. Very fun to play and I love timer getting bigger when there are only few seconds left, feels very dramatic! Too bad there aren't any sounds, those would make it even better! Regardless, this is a great entry and you did a great job!
Hey, good job on completing the game solo. Graphics animations are good and lot of graphic elements which makes this game looks different. Different animation style of enemies and better fx can make this pop out more.
Great art, it was probably really hard to finish it on time! Gameplay-wise something is a bit missing, some agency.
Good entry.
Nice game! I really like the simple gameplay :D. Artwork is great and the mechanics work quite well. I would suggest to add some kind of cooldown on the movement or limit on the velocity though, as when you click repeatedly you can move really fast.
Really cool game! The control caught me out of guard for a moment, but I figure it out :) Got to 4660 points. The only things missing are some sound effects and music, but I do understand that time during LD does not let anyone implement everything they want. Anyway, good job with the game!
