WHITE HOT by watdowtal
WHITE HOT is a game about a weak torch who wants to become scorching. The only way for him to do that is to acquire the Sacred Kindling, hidden away in the incredibly straightforward water temple.
Armed with nothing but his umbrella, he sets off to become WHITE HOT.

The 2nd and 3rd room (not including the title room) were a very steep difficulty curve. I'd like to get a little more familiar with basic mechanics before having me block projectiles from both directions. Especially the 3rd room which felt like I had to complete it more using a mad dash method rather than any skill based dodging / blocking.
This is one of my favorite games of this jam though. It's such a cute style and has a lot of potential. Great job.
Your game is really well made, but damn it's, so hard; I would have loved if you had some levels just to get accustomed with the controls and gameplay, and have the difficulty ramp up a bit instead of being immediately soul crushing ahahah
Also I think have mouse controls for the umbrella would work better if the camera was following the character. You have to mouse your mouse to avoid stuff AND follow your character and it's really like having to manage 3 brains at the same time
But again, really well made! Loves the graphics and the general atmosphere. Good job
