Description
Burnie the fire elemental must stop the bat-like mailer-daemons from getting past him. Mailer-daemons are carrying messages that will summon a many-tentacled demon-god from his hundred year slumber! There are three different endings. Try to get the best one.
How to Play
WASD or Arrows to move. Move the mouse to aim. Hold mouse to charge fireballs. Release mouse to throw fireballs.
Hold spacebar to regain mana. DON'T LET THE BAT-DEMONS PAST YOU or you will have to fight a boss-demon.

This is still a good game, just lacking polish.
Things to know:
Killing mailer-daemons is priority one. Don't hesitate to ram them, you are a fire elemental after all. The Lovecraftian thing is survivable, but it takes a while and changes your ending.
Charge your attack. This lets you shoot multiple enemies at once, which causes them to drop energy and health.
Know how you hold spacebar to regenerate energy? Well, this draws in the loot the pickups the enemies drop.
Knowing these things, the later areas almost become easier, though in a fun way. Just fire power-shots into the masses of enemies, and draw in the resulting powerups, keeping a close watch for mailer-daemons.
