Fantastic concept I loved setting the world on fire!!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Interesting concept, like the turn based growing fire, but water with firefigthers becomes hard to handle quite fast

Definitely an interesting entry that gets strategic fast, instead of pure scaling it's also about maintaining, the only thing i would change is like the medkit icon as it made me think i was gonna heal the firefighters at first there :p but overall fun strategy game! rated!

Well that sucked me in to a surprising degree. One of the first games I've played on here where I stopped thinking about it in the context of the jam and just enjoyed actually playing.

Im really glad to hear that. Thx for playing!

This could get very strategic very fast. I wasn't able to really figure out how to last longer but I'm sure if I played longer it would make more sense. I think some UI for when firefighters are coming would be helpful, and I didn't really understand how to use the right side. Right click didn't seem to do anything but I could left click to select them I guess? 

Developer

That’s very fair. The tutorial is very meh but the abilities are really important to succeed.


Essentially you have 2 abilities that you can select and use with right click. Fire Blast creates 5 burning tiles anywhere on the screen when you right click on a tile. However it requires 4 Power (The Flame icon on the left) and it must be used on a grass tile. 

Stun Smoke: Right Click on a Fire Fighter with this ability and they will be stunned for 1 turn. This doesn’t require any power so it’s free to use and should be used as much as possible to prevent getting watered.

Oh my god what a blast! In this game FIREFIGHTERS really keep you ON THE EDGE with their mechanic and you really have to BUILD the fire TO SCALE. I really like the serious monologues, the thrilling music and the amazing art. I really enjoyed the game and it's mechanics and I think it is a BIG SHOT for the

hint to anyone struggling to beat this one: I figured out the meta is to expand towards one edge/corner of the map at a time and make sure there's no gaps for the firefighters/trucks to spawn. Also make sure you got smoke+ for the endgame, since the trucks can't be hospitalized.

Developer

Glad to hear you've enjoyed the game. I definitely agree with smoke+ being one of the best upgrades. You can basically permanently stun a truck if they're in an annoying spot. Thx for playing!

I love the art and concept for this game. The scale of the fire getting bigger and bigger. I loved burning everything to the ground!

Developer

Thank you!
