This is great and the menus are really polished. Unfortunately, I could not get past the third level - it froze every time.

Good game, I really like that it is a flamethrower! felt bad for killing the rats xd Would love if you could check out my game CTRL+ALT+ESCAPE!

Funny game! It kept freezing and crashing during my gameplay (tryed on opera and chrome) so i couldn't pass the 3rd level, but its a nice concept of extreme solutions for "simple" problems.

What stood out to me the most is the incredibly chill jazzy music. I actually wouldn't mind listening to it outside of the game, if it's ever released as a soundtrack.
And burning the whole place down to get rid of the rats is a hilarious concept in itself, well done!

Nice game! One thing I noticed was that the timer keeps running in the background when the win panel is active. Overall good job!

The game crashes sometimes, pretty annoying. But I had fun in this game! Very nice flame mechanic, well done!

Not sure if it's extermination game or a pyromania sim!

Very fun to play, but that rat's 'dying' sound made me feel guilty :D

Good job ! Loved the retro style ! Big mention to the setting menu where i have been able to rempa the keys (i'm using a french keyboard) and play properly ! I have no flamethrower animation, i have seen it was done with Godot. We have done our game with the same engine and i have some particle animations missing in web build so i think there should be a godot issue ! Good job mate

I had fun but there was no risk to just going full flame and burning the place down? Should I have been penalised for burning it all to the ground? Otherwise a great submission. GG.

incredible music! chasing those rats around really gets you emotionally motivated to hear those squeals 💀

I think you could make some really interesting stages centered around the fire mechanic! well done

Very nice music and art :).

For the controls it would be really nice if the player could turn while use the flamethrower, I feel like it would make for a bigger fire mayhem!

I'm playing on the browser and I got some strange behaviour in the 4th level where the sound kept going for the image was frozen ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

Cool game, but after the second level there is only a blank screen. Should that be so or is that a bug? Nevertheless love how erverything burns down.

And a little critiquet is that you need a mouse for the UI, whilst the game itself does not use the mouse, and it throws me out when i need to switch, but no big thing.

Yep, there was a bug, we just fixed that blank screen issue
