At it's highs - it's awesome. But at it's lows - it's kind of a slog.
Humor and simplicity of it are it's strongest suits.
Graphics are good, explosions and fires feel impactful, although sounds layer on each other weirdly.
Player's character has a very inconsistent speed. Sometimes setting trees on fire gives you so much speed you can destroy entire camps just on that one boost alone. At other times, speed bonus is so negligable, that it becomes virtually impossible to outpace hippies and you just die.
yep this was a deliberate design choice - there is no speed bonus for lighting trees on fire, instead you gain speed when you're surrounded by fire and lose speed when you're out in the open. Without this the game was too easy. The best strategy is to light a few trees on fire in a circle, build up some speed while distracting the movers and then dart out into the open field to capture the tents.
BURN ALL THE HIPPIES!!!
in all seriousness, this was AWESOMETASTIC fun, my favorite entry so far!!!
I’m almost ashamed to admit it, but I had a lot of fun burning the hippies in your game :D I might borrow the idea someday and make a game about a fire elemental that burns everything around it.
Haha very brutal one! The dark humor here is hillarious, but i didn't unsderstand why the main character is slowing down on random
slow burn 😉 gotta stay close to fire to stay fast
I thought about that, but even in fire the character was slowing down. Otherwise the game came out pretty good!
wet trees slow you down, and you gotta stay in fire for it to build up 😊 way too easy otherwise,
Reminds me of big lez show on yt a little. Funny game, still requiring strategy. Only got to level 5 but was enjoying it, well done!
classic aussie humor 😂 it's all pretty much the same
It's crazy :D
The game is fire, the funniest I have played on this jam so far :D
it was really funny the way you narrated the story, and the ending song, it was all well made from my prospective.
Screaming audio was buggy. Explosions were nice.
Audio is a bug with the HTML build, or your system
save stupid save the game so not save
Never before have i gotten to run around as a little fireball burring hippies, well done, quite simply well done. My only gripe is that the way movement speed worked was a bit frustrating at times, but still, amazing game.
cant make it too easy 😊 you move much faster when youre surrounded by flames
This was more like fast-burn. haha
Very simple but interestingly fun!
Those poor hippies...
This is so peak! The graphics are very good in this game
Not sure about the burning of forests, people, things, etc. But from a game design/devel. perspective is a good entry; the controls are a bit jittery and hard to play (on the second level, I died instantly when the flame spawned was surrounded by a horde of hippies).
iacc love this game this is really cool
Feel like there's some hippie history with you guys haha great entry, definitely the most unique take on the theme that I've played so far!
Average doof experience. (Or how it SHOULD be for burning man enjoyers)
