How it feels

A tense, self-paced survival tower defense where you gather resources, craft gear, and deliberately choose when to escalate the danger by feeding the fire.

What players say

Players enjoy the simple core idea of lighting a fire to trigger waves, and they find the difficulty curve satisfying. Several mention the pre-alpha state but see strong potential.
