  • Really charming little game! Well done!

Did you include your Game Design Document in your downloadable files?
Yes

Tell us about your game!
Play as firefighter in paper world. In your fire station you can upgrade fire extinguisher to ease fight with spreading fire. Exit fire station to forest and put out fire before forest burns down.
If you get tired of fire you can play mini game on game machine in fire station. Something other than fire spreads there.

Actual game would also have some educational elements about fire causes and fire prevention (read - wanted to add spreading awarness about these but time run out), levels with progressing difficulty, some one time use items and more. I would also add local and multiplayer co-op if possible.

In this prototype there are base mechanics and one level that is randomized each time you go in.

Controlls
WASD - Movement
E - Interact
Esc/P - Pause menu
Mouse - Aim
LMB - use fire extinguisher
RMB - hold for overhead camera

Known issues
Upgrade cost widget shown when hovering buy button does not reshresh when button is clicked, you need to end mouse over and hover over button again to see new cost
Fire extinguisher uses particle collision, there may be a case when you spray three from side that it does not register hit event since the actors are paper thin, should work fine from front and back
Lack of music and sound effects is not design choice, its my first game jam and going solo
Refill station interaction widget might get in way of vision sometimes, bad level design - actors may spawn close to start point

Did you remember to include your Game Design Document?
Yes

Is your game set to Public so we can see it?
Yes

Extra Notes
Thanks for pushing me to actually kind of finish something, until now i just discarded many projects that were used to learn unreal engine and never considered to enter game jam.
