Felt really good to burn everything down! The game is neat and really well polished. I had a bit of trouble controlling the truck but other than that great job !
i loved it. my only complaint is that it was hard to enter and exit the truck when i wanted to. i kept accidentally entering, and it was hard to exit. i would suggest removing the mechanic where you can walk into the truck, and just keep it with space to enter. other than that 10/10
SO fun, creative, and wonderfully designed! Was not immediately aware that I was supposed to stick to burning a building for a period of time for them to break down, but once I realized I think I really was able to channel my inner pyromaniac. Amazing job!
OST made for the game during the jam. Hope y'all like it! :)

Excellent!
The controls feel great, the concept is very cool, and the juice is superb. It's really fun and feels good to play. Well done.
I got a bit confused at first, not realising I needed to stay on one building until it exploded; i.e. that wasn't immediately clear to me. There were also some niggles with having space to climb out of the truck (also, I would have preferred pressing space to climb back in as well -- the automatic version meant I climbed in a bunch of times I didn't intend to).
The menu, UI, and animations are god tier. The voice acting? Hypes the experience. The countdown timer? Thrilling! Sadly, I play with an AZERTY key board, and like many other games here, it can be a real pain to play when the only movement option implemented was with a QWERTY keyboard in mind (but I get it's easy to forget such a detail). An idea for sure to expand on!
There is statistical anomaly on how many firemen are actualy pyromans also.. xD .. Great work!
SO JUICY!
Great game all around, congrats! Great art, amazing sound, quick to learn and simple gameplay, and the S-S-S-SUPER TRUCK is very hype!
I did want the fire to feel a bit more firey, was hoping to set fire to buildings and have them take damage over time.
Also the volume slider in the main menu is a great touch, the Quality of Life stuff usually gets missed in jam games.
My high score was 37,800.
Awesome Job!
