The title blowed our minds. Lost 10 times in a row. The graphics are great.

Alright, texture issue (actually ended up being a shader issue) is ostensibly fixed!

Nice graphics... lit the first thing I ran into a flame and unexpectedly the entire town went on fire from that one action... did I win? lol. IDK.

I got everything to burn, but nothing happened after that. Are there any more levels?

The game is super choppy on my system.

It's more of a sandbox than an actual game - we never got to constraints or win conditions. To make a game out of it, try to get in, set the church on fire, and get out!

I don't know what to make out of it.

Very nice piece of art! I liked everything about it, except I don't see a relation with the theme.

Haha, the theme connection was a whole other layer of the game we didn't really get to - the only remnant was the fact that when the church burns down, there's a radio-tower inside instead of the expected skeleton. We had this whole ambiguous connected-timelines hysteria thing we'll hopefully actually explore in a more fleshed-out version.

Holy hells, loved the aesthetic here. Amazing graphics. Could use some more gameplay though, and a way to reset it. I ran into the fire, got a black screen but the sounds were still going, and I couldn't start again xD

That was surreal, and surprisingly fun! The color palette and visual style are pretty epic, as is the audio :D Particularly loved the fire effect.

Would really like to play a post-compo version that extends the gameplay. Some kind of spatial puzzling aspect where the fire slowly spreads from the ignition point perhaps? Anyways, great work.

After I#ve played this game, I was asking myself what the games message will be... graphics are really nice... webplayer version runs perfect for me... nice piece of work

The graphics were amazing. Very moody too, it's sad you didn't get to finish... Maybe you could make a post-compo?
