Flicker

Game Jam submission for the 2026 GMTK Game Jam, and my first ever completed game! Fight through waves of shadowy forest creatures while keeping the timer of your life, your fire, from extinguishing.

Cut down trees to extend the timer on your fire, collect the meat of your enemies to grow stronger, gaining more damage and knockback over time. Avoid the attacks of the monsters, or you'll face a nasty slow debuff, and keep your fire alive for 10 minutes to win!
