You are a candle, and you dislike the company of moths. Avoid them to burn more brightly, and click to use some of your power to kill them. If you lose all your power, game over.
If you don't like your mouse, you can also use arrow keys and space.

Not sure how I didn't notice this in testing. It checks whether the mouse is down, so that when you're in a fix you can keep it pressed and not worry about missing a chance. So the start-game click is ignored, but when you've still got the mouse pressed next frame it activates. I'm not sure how useful this is (if you're gaining power you're probably too far away to kill anything); in any case I should make it so you need to release between burns and before the first burn.

Sfx is a bit obnoxious with headphones.
Movement would probably feel a bit better if it moved 90% of the distance towards the mouse per frame rather than being 1:1 movement.

I'm disappointed there is no combo bonus: it looks like there is, but actually it's lying and it's just 10 points per moth.

I'll fix the other issues if I make an update.
Better sound and graphics and this game could be awesome.
