## Theme

The theme, 'Hot and Cold,' immediately brought to mind the concept of temperature, specifically in relation to living organisms and their need for homeostasis.
Reptiles face a unique challenge, being unable to internally regulate their temperature.
This sparked the idea of a cosmic turtle that maintains its body heat by consuming suns - a delicate balance between overheating and becoming too cold.

In the game, this concept is embodied by a thermostat that displays the temperature of the turtle.
Consuming suns raises its temperature, while avoiding them causes a drop.
A red overlay accompanied by the sound of burning indicates overheating.A blue overlay with the sound of a cold wind signifies a drop in temperature.

I also talk about the *multiple endings* limitation here but I don't want to spoil them :)
