I am terribly sorry for all the emotional damage this achievement will invoke (both visually and in-game)

I've also been playing this game because I got an advance code from the developer (I reviewed their previous game Robot Detour, which I bought with my own money and enjoyed a lot) store.steampowered.com/app/2954010/... This one is very different gameplay-wise, but likewise fun and made with heart!

Greatly entertained by this because I've been playing this game in breaks between grading, I kid you not, people's homework assignments about Propp and the structure of folktales.
People sometimes ask what Burn With Me was inspired by... And although there are no direct influences from games or other media, I still want to highlight a book (or rather two books) that have helped and influenced the narrative of the game a lot: the analysis of folktales by Vladimir Propp.
Another shout-out! Take a look at this everyone:
May I also share with you Burn With Me? 👀 We're releasing in 4 days! You've reposted us at some point (which brought many new eyes, thank you so much!), and the game is even shinier and cooler now! It's also relatively short, 3-5 hours, being a narrative game! store.steampowered.com/app/2954010/...
Such an immense honor to be part of LudoNarraCon with our game Burn With Me! store.steampowered.com/sale/ludonar... We'll also launch during event - October 12th! And keep out for the launch discount, you wouldn't want to miss it :)
Burn With Me release is approaching, time to launch the heavy artillery
Looking for something spooky cozy to play this month? Then please cast your eyes on this~ I honestly think it's also a great introduction to deckbuilders since you only have to play 5 cards each round. Complexity comes from trying to reach the score goals with the limited amount of cards played. 😀
Burn With Me is a stylish story-centric deckbuilder, in which you confront deepest desires and obsessions of occult students. Sing in sync with ancient rites, guide the lost souls of others, and burn a lot of cards, while trying not to burn your heart to ashes... 5 days until release!

All according to plan: 6 days until the release, time to implement the achievements :)

This will probably be the weridest bundle from all the bundles we're preparing, but hey - it's always nice to give devoted players and our long-time fans a little discount :) (even if only like 5 of them are into both of our games, haha)
I played Outcast Tales’ demo for four hours and was pleasantly surprised. While the combat has some issues, the game truly shines via its at times hilarious writing and excellent character interactions. Plus, the full release will be free! buttonmusher.substack.com/p/outcast-ta...

Last month it took Steam 8-10 days to review and approve builds instead of 3-5 days, was worried a bit we wouldn't make it on time. But we did! Burn With Me will be released on time - in 11 days :)
This is such a great analysis of how some clever deckbuilders break their genre's conventions!

Biggest problem with pre-release weeks is the constant state of nervous anticipation, not being able to think about anything except for the game ...this time me and Eva decided to cheat and go for a beach vacation for a whole week right before release :)
Finally got over two big milestones for Burn With Me: 1000 followers and top-2000 wishlisted! Still feels surreal so many people saw my game and liked what they saw... Here's to you all liking the actual game too. 12 days left until release!
Burn With Me releases in 13 days! We may be insane to make a gloomy and suspensful game that was almost impossible to market, but I wouldn't take it any other way.
