How does your game fit the theme?
When we talk about things out of control a very common thing is the fire, and how it can grow. Also one very serious thing that can get out of control are addictions, so that is why i made this game.

Pretty interesting game here, its in need of some polish here and there, but its snappy, solid, to the point, and is a neat approach to the theme. Good work!

Delicious but deadly ;)

Original, and the game looks good. but fire seems to randomly get put out. other than that fun!

Not the first fire spreading game out there and unfortunately, major bug that led to a major frame drop and the guy continuously being on fire despite pressing right click and not being inside a fire. The art is relatively good and the music fit the theme. The setting is a good one for the theme though.

Overall good job for a solo dev !

An original take, I had a really hard time with the rolling collision vs the boxes, as well as the water vs the fire. Could work well with some improvements on those - I'm not sure if there's a point to the burning people? Is it just for fun or decoration?

Fun, catchy, and to the point! Fits the theme very well! And also the best reason to eat cake.

Might be nice to have some sort of points in there to let the player know they're making progress (maybe a progress bar of how much of the level is completed?). Also, spawning too many fire sprites on the screen can quickly cause the engine to slow to a crawl.

Also it's absolutely hilarious that the fire hydrants can catch on fire!

Thank you so much for playing the game!

I did notice the fire problem, but i just didn't have enough time to fix it, and a progress bar sounds great, I will think on how to implement it on the future.
