Wyrm Fire
## Short description / tagline
Hatch as a whelp. Eat, burn and grow until you can raze Camelot. A PICO-8 dragon rampage.
## Description
You are a dragon, and the realm is flammable.
You start as a whelp barely bigger than the sheep you're eating. Burn hamlets, snap up livestock and anyone too slow to get away, and grow through ten ages into something that shakes the screen.
Camelot is sealed under a holy dome. To break it you must burn the three town churches, but each town has a dome of its own and a knight of the Round Table holding it up. Learn their rhythm: fire splashes off a raised guard, so charge it, then get clear of the lunge. Arthur, Lancelot, Merlin, Mordred and Morgan le Fay are waiting at the end.
- Fire that spreads: light a field and let the village cook
- Burn arrows out of the air, and dodge the magic that won't burn
- Chain kills for a multiplier, fill your fury, unleash an inferno
- A new upgrade from the reel every time you raze a settlement
- A freshly generated realm every run
The whole game fits in a single PICO-8 cartridge.
## Controls
- Arrows: fly
- Z: breathe fire (holding it locks your aim, so you can strafe)
- X: charge and devour
- Z + X: unleash your fury, when the star gauge is full
