Nice game ! Liked the concept !

The timers are a bit short (maybe make it a bit more generous or charge up the bossing a bit faster ?)

Appart from that, very cool game. I liked it :)

I like the art and the music sounded good for the first 10 loops and then it got a little repeatitive. I think the game's also waay too difficult i couldn't finish any of the levels, but i was always almost done with all the buildings. I was probably doing something wrong im not sure. Another thing i wish was a little clearer, the boss up meter. Sometimes i was able to boss up before it was filled and other times i wasn't. Really nice game either way!

love the game alot of fun the art is really good great job

Lovely little game and loved the sound effects of boss mode in particular haha - I tried my best but always had one person dying in level 1 - maybe a more gradual difficulty curve would be great! But overall a fun gameplay loop!

Holy cow that was WAYYYY too difficult (imo)  I could barely make it through level one and on level 2 I really didn't stand a chance. Would have loved some kind of indication that I could enter boss mode before it was all the way filled out. I thought it would be something like an overdrive where once it fills up you use the whole thing. The pixel art is great and the concept is solid. Great job!

Good idea! I felt like I was playing overcooked while all is in fire. Nice implementation of the mechanic, but I would recommend a single buttton for pick up and drop (maybe a bool just to check which action needs to take). Still, it was difficult and fun.

Great game! very difficult. good job!

I dig it dude good job

Really fun, loved the art, it's a bit difficult but very good nonetheless

The concept is very interesting, but there were some implementation issues that made it difficult to enjoy the game. The levels were way to difficult, which was worsened by the oddly precise hitboxes for picking up people. That was unfortunate, because the art style did sell me on the game.  

This town needs some more firefighters to help out! Clever take on the theme and limitation. It was a nice shift from a lot of the other jam games I've played so far. The art was simple, but effective and charming.

I think it would play better with a single action button, so the same button to pick up civilians as it is to drop them off, or as was suggested, he should autodrop them when you're in the ambulance zone.

Overall, really well done!

Fun game, it was really satisfying to swing around those people when "bossing up" ^^

My only nit picking would be that having to press O to drop the civilian at the ambulance felt unnecessary, would have been more convenient to instant drop them when in the ambulance range.

Cool game !

so this is my story,  I left my house to get some air and I was thinking what game should I try to do, and I started to think about a firefigther game that I was thinking for a while, I see your commment and come to play your to and for my suprise, its a firefigther game, awsome.
I got really dificulty wining the levels, I almost end up with no time.

either way nice game, I am a firefither as well and it game me more pleasure to play it Cheers

I love the visuals and the movement! It's easy to control. The boss up thing was a little confusing, for me. I think programming and graphic design is good, maybe level design could be improved

but great submission!

Nice submission!

The pixel art animations are great, the controls are also perfectly done and feel natural.

I found the difficulty a bit too high in my opinion, but maybe I'm just not good at it. I understood the concept of being on the edge and gaining boosts that way, I think it's very cleaver but might be more visible ingame by, for instance, changing the music pitch or adding some effects to the player to understand that you're gaining something (the lil sweat drop feels just like you're going to sleep lol).

Overall it's a cool game for 10 days of work, congrats.

Loved it! It ran very smoothly for me and controls felt really natural.

I really liked the animations and the minimap, felt like a finished game :)

I found the game too hard, though, but nothing that a little balancing shouldn't solve. I look forward to the future of this project, if you guys will continue it.

Tough Game!!  Loved the look and feel of it all though.  it was a little hard to pick people up sometimes though and im not a very good fire fighter..  All in all its a great game!  Good job to the team!

play mine if you get some time, thanks! https://itch.io/jam/vimjam2/rate/1200495

Hey, this game looks very polished ! The art feels pleasant to the eyes. I must admit that the game is really not easy, perhaps it is a bit on the "too hard for a jam game"-side, but perhaps my opinion is a tad bit biased because I'm not a firefighter myself. Also I feel like the tutorial could've used less text, but that's just my idea.

Still, cheers on your entry and I hope you've all had a fun time creating this !

The art is impressive! Game could use a bit more of a tutorial, but good job overall!

I managed to beat Level 1 and 2 but I must say that the game really isn't easy. The game is really polished and espcially the art looks great. It got repetetive pretty quickly though, which is why I only played the first to Levels. Also in my opinion it's a bit far fetched that the ability to "Boss Up" applies to the limitation but it's fine. Overall you still did an amazing job, great game!
