Liked the concept and the 3d mazeness. CTRL-W is not a good combination to run on a web browser, at least on mine it will close down the tabs, so basically I just had to run sideways... The text in the menu how to play is really hard to read as well, but other than that it was cool :

Concept seems cool and graphics look dope ^^ but i had some problem with gameplay - sometimes i couldn't open door and camera was shaking.
Some suggestions:
1) adding some kind of indicator in form of icon that shows how much time you have until you die
2) adding background behind text in "about" and "how to play"
3) for me camera was a little to fast, hard to control - it would be a little more realistic if camera rotation was slower

In fact, camera shake was also related to some kind of heat indicator. Perhaps not the best idea. Doors may not open, because you have to go to her, touching.

Yes. CTRL-W was a dumb idea on my part

Interesting idea.
I don't like that I had to use mouse + WASD + enter. I don't have 3 hands! :)
My browser tab did crash after a minute.

AS others said the controls weren't a great idea, Pressing enter to open a door is really unhandy as well. I do have a weakness for these kind of simple looking 3D games though

Very nice game. I like that the screens gets red-er over time. But it was a bit too dark. Well done :)

Great work! Feels like a classic fps like Wolfenstein 3D or Hexen. The art is great. I'll kind of agree with some of the other comments that the game is a little dark, but I actually kind of like it that way. It makes it hard to see, but it feels a lot like those old fps where the draw distance was really limited. The text in your "How To Play" screen was very hard to read. The black text would blend in with the black cracks in the stone texture behind the text, making some of it unreadable. I'll also agree with the other comments that little bit of clearer feedback as to how hot it was would have been good too. I was never sure how close I was to dying. I know the walls get redder, but with the darkness in the level, I didn't always have a clear idea of how close to death I was and more often than not I would be surprised by the game over.

But overall a really great compo game! I would definitely play more of it!

Thanks a lot to everyone for the feedback and pointing out the problems in the game that should be fixed.

Nice graphics and cool game concept! The text in "How to play" is not well readable with this background texture. Some feedback on how close the player is to death would be a nice addition. Besides that, good job with the game!
