For Planet Game Jam #6 - itch.io 
Theme: High temperature planet.

I only had like a day to work on this (after the initial platformer set up) so I didn't have time for the vast majority of what I had planned... I also had a lot of trouble thinking of decent mechanics / gameplay loop to suit the vibe, which really slowed me down, so any feedback or ideas are welcome!

Original idea:
You play as a creature adapted to a super heated lava planet. After a failed bout of human colonisation, where humans built 'cooling machines' in order to survive, thus destroying much of the heat-reliant flora and fauna, it is now up to you to find a way to survive and destroy the frozen areas to bring back life.

Things I planned to include (but didn't have time): Cooling factories that you have to destroy by way of puzzles and platforming. Habitat discoveries with other heat-adapted creatures. Potentially, restoration of habitats, either deliberately or a side effect of you just surviving. Health mechanics induced by cold.

However I only had time for the very basics so...  so just enjoy the vibe and the minor exploration! And feel free to give feedback and ideas about what the game could become, since we're very much in super prototype territory here!
