BURNING SNOW
A downloadable game for Windows
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! :)

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.

concordo com vc
Hello! i played the game in my channel....like everyone else from the looks of it ksjdbfhsfb, I really like how its not scary but somehow eerie in a theres still a big warm blanket over you
Enjoyed this!
This game only takes 10 minutes, but it is so compact and atmospheric. It starts romantically and evolves into a complex, melancholic, yet beautiful feeling. The ending made me laugh, too! The emotions are concise but full, and the minimal dialogue is perfect.
(Spoilers below)
At first, I was a bit confused by the mechanics about if keeping as many matches as possible, but that actually added to the realism of being lost in the snow. When the frostbite effect appeared, I felt a real sense of unease. Even though I hoped there was no death" mechanic, I kept lighting matches on the way back just for some peace of mind I really didn't want to fail the kitten.
I wasn't sure if I would make it, but I felt determined to reach the end just to share that beautiful memory with the cat. When the fireworks finally lit up and changed the colors of the trees, it was stunning. I felt a strong urge to hug the kitten. When it said "That's it," I knew I would remember this moment forever.
The ending was hilarious. Thank you for making such a wonderful experience!
Thanks for such a detailed review. I'm glad you liked the game!
I really enjoyed this game! The ambiance and the low-poly aesthetic are fantastic. Can’t wait to see what you create next! For anyone interested, I’ve also put together a gameplay in Spanish to help reach the Spanish-speaking community :3
