Nice game, enjoyed the challenge a lot. Especially the last two levels. The combination of all the fire mechanics with the arrow was unique and interesting. Also, thank you for adding an undo, that was critical haha.

Cool Sokoban. I liked it. I have not seen one with fire mechanics like this before.

Great job! ❤️

Nice puzzle game! The pixel art is clean, the on-screen key legend is helpful, and the fire-burns-the-crate-wall moment in level 2 is a great fit for the chain reaction theme. Instant reset and rewind are very welcome in a pushing puzzle. One suggestion: level 1 was a bit confusing for me because blocked pushes give no feedback and the fog hides the path, and the ARROWS counter at 0 is not explained, so a small hint or a gentler first level would help. Good job!

What's interesting is how the fire and bow-and-arrow mechanics give it its own unique twist. Luckily, I was able to understand the rules, but the puzzles are quite challenging. Movement is snappy and there's an undo and reset options, so it never felt too frustrating. However, when I reloaded the page partway through, my progress was lost. Overall, a game with a lot of potential.

Great puzzler that goes hard really fast!

I like puzzle/sokoban games and liked the idea of keeping other fires burning for the next step. I got to... this is an issue, I don't know where I am at at which level ;).  Some number next to the arrow or on the right would be great. And perhaps a menu button if you guys will work on  it further, so one can toggle on/off the sound  without muting the browser tab. But looking at 31 minutes, 21 seconds before the deadline, this is probably in your todo list. I truly think it has a potential. Would play it again if it had some interesting (or unconventional/weird) storyline in the full version. Thumbs up.

I loved the puzzle game and was really nice to play. I'm not too good at figuring out the levels so even with me not being good it was still fun.
