Update 1.2.1: A light in the boss fights
Bosses now drop embers and hearts during the fight, and tired bosses burst with embers when you stomp them.

A review pointed out that there was no way to get your flame back during a boss fight - every boss was a pure battle of attrition. Fair point! Boss fights now give back:
- Ember shedding. Every time you knock off a chunk of a boss's health it drops a few embers. Keep hitting it and your flame stays fed.
- Hearts. At two thirds and one third of its health every boss drops a heart (+30 flame).
- Tired stomps. Stomp a tired boss while it rests on the floor and a burst of embers flies out.
With the Darkness rule "Hearts are rare" a boss only drops its second heart, and endless mode drops fewer embers - the hard modes stay hard. Have fun in the dark!
