Awesome game!! I played until the framerate dropped so much I couldn´t do much anymore, but I´m pretty sure most everything/everyone was on fire by that point. Great visual style (that title screen is particularly brutal) and audio, and nice work on the limitation too. Cool idea, cool gameplay, really nice job!

Thank you for the kind words! And yeah, if you managed to get to a point where the game is crashing, I'd say you probably beat the game xD. The team I worked with really helped make this game awesome, so big props to them. Once again, thanks for checking the game out :D.

Super fun! get's scary once you get a ton of firefighters chasing you (How do you counter that?)

Text in the tutorial screen was a bit hard to read, I think the BG is too busy. Otherwise, super addicting concept!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing our game! The firefighters are more meant as a time limit, as eventually they just completely surround you haha, so the best bet is to just try and fight them off while you can. Also I wasn't aware of the tutorial text, but now that you mention it, it does seem a bit tricky to read. Thanks for the feedback!

Frenetic and adictive.
The dash make it a little hard to control, whould lef to change cource while on dash, and aside  i can't figure how you mean to refill the heat mether

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! The dash was originally meant as a different mechanic, but we left it as is because of the limitation, though I get what you're saying about it being a lil frustrating. And even though there's a tutorial at the beginning of the game, we probably could have explained the heat mechanic a bit better aswell. Still, thanks for checking out the game :)

It was fun to play with, the main idea is also good... i hope i can burn everyone, and not only the building

Developer(+1)

Thanks for checking it out! And don't worry, everyone can (and probably will) be burned alive, that's what makes the game so great :D

really nice visuals! the mechanic with dash/fireball worked out really good and it was fun playing :D

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing! Yeah, the dash fireball mechanic was our way of solving the limitation, and I think it turned out alright. Glad you enjoyed :)

The dash+fireball felt really good! Love all the sound effects and you really felt a great destructive power fantasy xD A little camera shake could have taken it over the top!

Would have liked a full screen button, it was hard to see the little gas cans at first. I also don't like quit buttons in web games, cus it just freezes the game and doesn't really serve a purpose. Accidentally clicked it at the end :P

Great job on this, it was really fun!! The music track was excellent and fit the mood perfectly.

Developer(+1)

I'm glad you liked  the game! And feedback noted about the quit button in web games, I didn't realise that they just crashed the website xD. If we had more time I would have loved to implement some extra things like camera shake, but I'm still happy with where we got! Thanks for playing :D

Very good looking game. Also feels very polished and ready. Was fun to play.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for checking our game out! We decided to go for a simple gameplay loop so we could focus a bit more on polish, which made this jam quite fun :D

Who doesn't love arson? And thanks for checking out our game, I agree that our artist really cranked out some cool visuals
