While it started pretty easy, the last couple of minutes were very engaging. Balancing the water supply and plotting routes for the two choppers so that they could hit fires along the way to their ultimate destination was enjoyable. I think it could have done with some time cut off the early game - I don't think I started losing trees until the last minute or so - but it was novel and fun, nice job!

Thanks! Perhaps I could shave off the first minute for repeat games, but I figured that most people in this jam would only play once or twice, so the first minute or two function as a warm-up of sorts. I've had games where even up to the four-minute mark, I'm thinking, "Wow, maybe I'll manage to keep 240/250 trees this time!" The game corrects my hubris very quickly.
