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.

Overall a great interpretation of the theme! Though , after a while it gets a bit repetetive.
Quite understandable! Thank you for the feedback! We tried to make it a new experience every time with random fire spawns but I know the feeling of the game only lasts for so long. Hope you had fun playing! =)
The game is quite fun!
A neat little timewaster. Fantastic effort!
Thank you! It was a real blast to make, I enjoyed every day of it.
The sounds are very satisfying and the arrows pointing towards fire and water is great. Please consider rating my game :D https://itch.io/jam/brackeys-5/rate/919993
Very fun game, satisfying sounds and great art.
Amazing! Good music, art, and game play!
The map could be global , so that the game could be more strategic by making player managing the fire fighting sequence.
The character is really cute! Game feels good. Great job!
This was a really cute game and I had so much fun playing it. The controls and objective were very easy to understand and despite not having a time constraint I still felt a sense of urgency, so great job with your design from that perspective! This is a really cool game and I'd be so excited to see it become something more outside of the jam.
Great take on the theme stronger together! The growing puddle mechanic was well made and the arrows were helpful for putting out the fire and playing the game. The art style is also quite nice and the music adds to the game. The tutorial was also well made and the entire game was very intuitive! Great job!
Thanks for playing! And yeah, we really tried to make the player fully understand the mechanics before they got into the actual game so I'm glad if the tutorial helped!
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!
