Burn It Down
You awaken in your mansion and discover that heather, the love your life, is missing. It appears that she has been kidnapped but it is unclear as to by whom and why. Your mission is to find her and, on this journey, you’ll discover truths that will change your relationship forever.
Burn it Down is a unique side-scrolling puzzle platformer with awesome pixel graphics, simple controls, captivating voiceovers and a mysteriously grim storyline. Unlike other platformers, Burn it Down utilizes only the left and right arrow keys which forces the player to get creative with how they approach and solve the puzzles.
“For a blocky, retro-looking game, Burn it Down is surprisingly plot-heavy. Part detective story, part haunted mansion explorer” – Time Magazine
With innovative gameplay and controls and meticulously constructed environments, Burn It Down is an experience worth diving headfirst into.

Burn It Down is a small platformer with unique mechanics. You can not jump yourself. The character will jump when he runs up to a certain length. And it sets the style of the game :)
The plot is simple and quite funny, there is no deep meaning in it.
Someone wrote about bad hitboxing, but that's not true. You can even see how the character touches spikes, but does not die. The game is trying to help you, but in spite of this maybe you will die a hundred times.
In general, this is a good game.

A highly recommended gory platformer with minimalistic controls!
This little indie gem of a platformer is simply brilliant! The controls are only forward and backward and the only way to jump is to gain enough momentum to jump. Every level has different stuff that will try to kill you and there is a timer on the middle of the screen to remind you that you have to keep going from room to room as fast as possible. If you die, you restart that level and you have a pool of blood to remind you where you have failed. It's gory but the pixel art makes it kinda cute at the same time. I loved it and really recommend it if you like platformers!

It's a good little game. I beat it in 90 minutes the first time, but keep in mind that the ending is, shall we say, less satisfying if you don't finish before the timer runs out. Wish there were a video online showing the ending before timer expiration. Not worth playing all the way through again just to see the other ending.

Its like a horror version of Mario trying to save the princess. I have not finished the game yet but I can say this. If you like a challenge and like horror and/or Mario games, this is the game for you.

I used to be #2 in the world back when this game was on mobile, but now there are quite a few new levels. I'll be spending my time trying to beat this game in under 10 minutes.
Good luck! 5/5

This game is so frustrating and just tedious at times but challenging games are what I live for so, if it's up your alley, play it, these achievements tho are CRAZY.

Just being honest but if your a masochist go for this game
I guess it's decent but auto jump kills it for me
