A tiny interactive tale. Don't forget to throw a log into the fire to keep the story going!
(After 2 days we had to scrap all of the code and rewrite it in a different game framework.)
Post-Jam Updates
0.2.2 - build with the latest version of Rust, which prevents false-positives on VirusTotal. 0.2.1 - added a version for Linux. Cortesy of @elegaanz (check out their game!). Be warned that it isn't tested by the developers. 0.2.1 - fix memory leak
Tools
Rust - the programming language of choice. ~~Amethyst - powerful game framework on which we spent 2 days and decided to switch to~~ GGEZ - lightweight game framework for making 2D games ~~that saved our heads~~ Atom - decent text editor. Sublime Merge - awesome GUI for Git. Adobe Photoshop - for making art. Dropbox - for sharing work with the team.
Hi! Nice work! I want to make a video with the best games of LDJam46. Something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOdTsWE7iIk . Can I find your game also on indiexpo website? The channel is linked with them.
That was a very interesting way of telling a story! I do have some critique on the medium though, the sound of logs being added was louder than the voice, and in general they the narrator spoke pretty quietly. Also, keeping the fire alive was a trivial task, and didn't really add much. Perhaps if there wasn't any fail state, there could be some actually interesting choice to the fire? Maybe there could be more connection between the story and the fire management?
The actual story was cool though, and I congratulate you for trying a new medium! The narration added so much to the game, and I love the illustration of the scene and fire. There's a beautiful style going on here, with the stylised menu and art! It was an interesting story, the sort of warm tale you'd hear whilst huddled around a fire. Overall a very beautiful game, I just wish it was longer! :heart:

Calling `play_later()` for every sound on every frame wasn't correct thing to do...
Sorry for my bad englisch
