Overview
Ignite is a Yume Nikki fangame created by Forty starring Feutsuki, a black cat under quarantine. He lives in a small, run-down apartment room with a large fireplace in it. The dream world is accessed through staring at the fireplace.
On March 17, 2014, a remake of the game titled Ignite: Dying Flame was released. While it is shorter in areas and number of effects compared to the original, it improved graphics and added several events. A new feature of the remake is the ability to change Feutsuki's clothes, sometimes affecting NPC dialogue.
Gameplay
Feutsuki is a black cat, and all other NPCs are animals or other abstract beings.
The game tends to lean on darker atmospheres such as .flow or Yume Nisshi (夢日誌). The events are detailed and can involve other NPCs.
There is a fire motif evident throughout the game, showing Feutsuki possible possibly being obsessed with fire. The 9 key causes Feutsuki to wake up through his lighter.
Plot
There are many events in Ignite, most of them probably being about Feutsuki's past, or encounters with others. Sometimes an event must be triggered to get an effect.
Not much is known other than Feutsuki being under quarantine (it is still unclear if he has any sort of virus or infection that caused him to be under quarantine), and it is unknown if he enters the "dream world" in hopes of escape, or to pass the time.
Effects (Influences)
Effects are called Influences in both the original and the remake versions. Something unique to Ignite is that you take off effects by selecting "Normal" from the effects menu.
