Hot Wax Burns Tetris at Both Ends With Candle Mechanics

PUNKCAKE Delicieux, the studio behind Shotgun King, has revealed Hot Wax, a new puzzle game that reimagines Tetris with burning candle mechanics. Created during a 2024 Ludum Dare game jam, the game tasks players with guiding an ember through tetromino-shaped candles while managing collapsing wax blocks. The result twists familiar falling-block instincts into something strategic and surprisingly fiery.
