BURNING SNOW is a short atmospheric experience about staying warm in a cold forest and eventually launching a firework. Seek matches and make fire while a mysterious cat companion guides you through the forest.

Features:
- Light matches and burn branches to stay warm in a freezing forest
- A mysterious talking cat companion
- Short, focused experience (roughly 10 minutes)
- Original soundtrack
- Retro-inspired visuals

This is my first-ever 3D game, so I really hope you find it fun! I mostly focused on the visuals and tried to make the game as polished and atmospheric as I could! Please enjoy! :)

You can also follow me on Bluesky or X (Twitter) for more stuff.
I also just made a Discord Server for updates and early testing of my future projects. Feel free to join!

This was so cute I loved it!
nice one! mouse movement is way to slow, even on high setting. but aside from that we like it! :)
I love This Game So Much
Really great experience with this one. I love the retro and cozy feel. Plus everything was well made and I encountered no issues. Also congrats on it being your first 3d game. Little short, but that's fine. Everything was enjoyable.
Um jogo que me fez lembrar por que amo tanto jogos indies
Esse jogo foi uma experiência muito grata e satisfatória. O sentimento que ele passa ao jogar é muito nostálgico e reconfortante. Desde a trilha sonora até o design do gatinho, a ambientação e o sound design do momento em que você se aquece no fogo, tudo parece ter sido pensado com muito carinho. Parabéns ao desenvolvedor, e desejo muito sucesso na sua carreira de desenvolvimento!

This game was such a heartfelt and satisfying experience. The feeling it conveys while playing is deeply nostalgic and comforting. From the soundtrack to the kitten’s design, the atmosphere, and the sound design when you warm yourself by the fire, everything feels like it was crafted with genuine care and passion. Congratulations to the developer, and I truly wish you great success in your game development career!

I really enjoyed the game, but by the end I was left with so many questions. The main ones being, "Why are we out here?" and "Way does it look like an avalanche happen?". I wish that there was some story stuff that you could find while playing, and maybe there is and I just missed them.
Either way, this was a nice little experience and I hope to see more cool little projects like this from you in the future!
This is a really great first 3D game! Keep it up!! 🔥🔥🔥
Quite the calming and cute game. At least until everything started burnin. Well done for a short game.
so cute!!!
A Cat and Me in the Burning Forest | BURNING SNOW
The atmosphere was so calming and cute. 10/10 on this one
Is BURNING SNOW coming to Steam?
This was a cool short game! I felt so cozy playing this! Hopefully we got out of the forest! Good game!
Really liked the atmosphere in this—starts off cozy and really reminds me of Animal Crossing! Enjoyed Burning and Freezin at the same time!
It's a good game, I'll skip it.
Hello! I played this for a video ^w^
I really enjoyed it!
I like snow games
A very clever game! i thought this was the spiritual prequel to Easy Delivery Co and i love that game.
I love the story, atmosphere, and the gameplay.

loved it! reminds me of easy delivery co.!
awesome! cant wait to see future projects.. definitely a new follower of yours :3
Amazing game! Very interesting story too. I made a video on it.
Hola, jugué al juego y me encantó. La banda sonora y la ambientación son geniales. Me gustaría saber cómo se llama el gato que nos acompaña durante el juego.
eu me pergunto se essse jogo tem mais de 2 finais alternativos pois com certeza deve ter o que morremos de frio, e o que eu sem querer fiz ond taquei fogo na floresta. eu iamgino que talvez tenha o "final feliz" onde não exageramos nas moitas que botamos fogo e apenas somos resgatados
Nice game! Short, yet magnificent!... Like burning
firesnowinspiring game, and how he went from 2d to 3d too
Loved this cute little game!
I feel like I cant add anything new that other people havent already said, I love this! The atmosphere was so well captured; it was such a perfect balance of cozy and a little unnerving, and as someone who has tried doing something similar myself, i really liked the way you did the creeping frost effect. What a lovely little game!

This game should have an ambient video, I think it's pretty cozy, despite almost summer.
I was Smokey Bear's worst nightmare
Nice game. Fun story. All the matches. 10/10
That rapier may not be yours, but it sure is mine!
