Use of the limitation
I applied it to the 3 extinguishing agents I reproduced in the game: water, foam and powder. Each being efficient against a specific type/color of fire.

Zero actually, I'm following a cutting diet atm but I made an exception to taste one of the mini plum-pies my wife made during the week-end !

Great simple but engaging game! Good pacing and progression, and the soundtrack adds its own vibe too!

I really liked the concept and gameplay, it felt super smooth and fun to play! The only thing is that the end screen felt kind of abrubt and in my opinion a bar or a warning symbol that shows that it is getting too hot would feel really nice. Great Work!

Hi ! There was indeed an untold hard stop at 100 fires. I only wrote it in the description but nothing in the game was warning about it. Since the first submission, I'm working on a heat bar that represents that limit but it will not be a game over anymore. I'll put more details in the upcoming update devlog. Thanks for the feedback !

I liked the art and how look animations of fire and water, interpretation of the limitation works good and the gameplay is smooth. Also nicely done audio, but I really missed this "pshhhh" on a fire extinguish. Gamepage has style with it colors and well informative. You did a great job <3

I want a mini plum pie, too :(

Thank you for your kind words ! I was, unfortunately, short on time for the 1st due date. but I already implemented some homemade sfx including a "pshhh" for the next version ^^ It will also include a few other major changes so I'm currently balancing the whole thing.
I'd be happy to get your feedback when the upcoming version will be released !

Pretty fun and simple concept that works really well with the limitation. Very well done.

Nice take on a survivor-like! Controls are smooth and the different extinguishing agents are a cool use of the limitation. Not sure if there are more than the two upgrades, but would be nice to have a few more!

Thank you for your feedback and support ! There are only 2 upgrades for now. I wish I could add more but I was learning at the same time and I had to reduce my scope in order to deliver on time for the jam. I definitely hope I will have more time in the future to keep working on this prototype !
