In what way does your game fit the theme?
You play as a puddle and grow stronger together when you gather other puddles. Your goal is to put out fires, which also grow stronger together as time goes on and they spread more.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
I wrote all the code myself and I had help from my friend Yiroh with the art assets.

I found the concept pretty fun. However, I was little bit confused since where right next to a body of water.
Fun concept and really beautiful art style my man. Nice game.
Thank you! We played your game a while back and it was really wholesome, what a great concept! =)
Absolutely loved the idea that not only your peers become stronger together, but also your enemy
The music slapped hard, nice selection
The villagers were also a fun addition and certainly got a chuckle out of me 🤣
Very simple, but also very fun, good job!
Thanks so much!
I love the art style! Very fun and could work as an addictive mobile game.
Great game! I enjoyed having the tutorial in the beginning.
I found it a bit hard to understand how to put out the fires , but I really enjoyed playing it
Thank you for the feedback, any suggestions on how we could make it easier to understand? We've got a tutorial in the game already and if needed we could just add a soft-lock... Glad you enjoyed it!
When I started the game I didn't know I needed to walk up to the fire to put it out I thought I needed to click it so I suggest adding in a little arrow or something telling me to move to the fire
I suppose that would be helpful. We never introduced mouse controls in the game so we just assumed you would run into the fire...
well done
I feel like you shouldnt be able to die, just make it so you cant put out fires when you dont have enough puddles. The theme works fine, the audio is good, graphics are meh.
That is an interesting idea, I can see how that would fit into the theme better. Thanks for the feedback!
Good game! It has a good art style and an interesting concept!
Nice concept and nice music.....
Thank you! The music was from Youtube Audio Library though, can't take credit for that. We only chose the stuff we thought best fit...
Very polished. A bit of a flat experience though. Very well done for a 1 week game!
Thanks! We are both really new to game design and this was my first full game I ever made and so I'm glad to see it receiving positions reviews!
Well done, enjoyable game. It's fun, and with update graphics it could be a pretty good game. I like the mechanics of it. Good job.
Pleasantly surprised! This game has the gift to relax me but also to be fun.
Congratulations
Special Mention: Sound Design/Art Direction
A really interesting game concept that I would love to see explored further
Thank you! I checked your game out early and I loved the art style... We initially tried going with pixel art for this game but I'm not the greatest when it comes to that aspect...
Great work on the interactive tutorial, the difficulty selection and small things like showing the direction of puddles and fires. It also matches the theme really well. Great job!
Thank you so much! I think that your game is just much more amazing! I showed it to multiple of my friends to have them play and they all enjoyed it!
Oh wow! Thank you! Glad you all enjoyed it :)
Cool game! I liked the interactive tutorial and the arrows showing you where fire and water was. ;)
Nice game! I like that you have the arrows to tell you where the nearest fire and puddles are
Your game is very funny
Thank you! Not what we were going for but I like how you saw it in a new and different perspective!
