Thanks so much for this update. My family and me are longtime fans of Pixel fireplace, it's a family staple during the holidays. It may be nit-picky, but I was wondering why you reduced the maximum of logs that can be placed in the fire. Thanks and happy holidays!
Hi Max, glad you and your family have enjoyed it for so long :)
That's a good question, there were a few reasons. It looked a little too much like a round, undefined pile. This overall shape looks better and more like a stack of logs. An average fireplace isn't really big enough for 5 logs or to throw them on side-to-side like it did, and it looked odd if you only threw on 2 logs. There was one in the middle and on the side but nothing on the other side, so this change fixed that too. Hope that answers your question :) Happy Holidays to you too!
Burn time fix is in the latest update v1.2.3. It's about 25 min per log now. More details about that version here: https://hammertail.itch.io/pixel-fireplace/devlog/205806/update-v123-performance...
