That might be a disturbing thing to say.  Oh well more fire!  The game looks great and is simple to understand.  I wish it had almost a challenge level where you had to burn down 75% of the map or burn certain things.

Who doesn't love burning down some buildings! Very solid and well made, though the fire behavior was a little hard to predict. Definitely saw it not spread to some adjacent flammable stuff in there. I also saw some toroidal behavior once?

So just being adjacent isn't enough sometimes. This leads to more strategic placement of dynamite and other flammables."},{"author_name":"tomer_cool","author_uid":"106288","time":"Aug 29, 2016 @ 1:55pm","epoch":1472478600,"text":"Nice game good art, I enjoined playing it.

The graphics look nice, and the fast forward feature is great.\r<br\/>My critique is that after placing all the &quot;fire proliferating goodies&quot; you have to wait for the timer before starting the fire. The timer is encouraging you to go fast, but then essentially punishing you if you go too fast. I wonder if the timer is even necessary. If there was no timer you could just place things and then start the fire right after. There would be less pressure to act, but I think the bulk of the game was in watching the village burn.\r<br\/>Certainly fire is an ancient technology, but I don't really feel this relates to closely with the theme. All is all, you did pretty well, and good work!"}],"images":["ld36\/5709-81192d4eaf58b4a3bf62b554a80bbac0.jpg","ld36\/5709-362db2210163e3f9b4db91129f84d9ab.jpg","ld36\/5709-9ba5780fb4a54ebbf4252f0609ae1d4a.jpg","ld36\/5709-683e77dea8c236ebe60b9c854a8832ec.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/grahamweldon.com\/LD36\/","text":"Web"},{"url":"https:\/\/cl.ly\/1H2P3E1v0j02","text":"Windows"},{"url":"https:\/\/cl.ly\/2x2Z403q1e0r","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"https:\/\/cl.ly\/1d0D3L2u122u","text":"Linux"},{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/predominant\/LD36","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"449","g_author":"5709","g_event":"LD36","g_eventkey":"35","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"437","g_title":"ArsonVille","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"21","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/570486\/5709-shot0-1472421842.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/570486\/5709-shot1-1472421842.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/570486\/5709-shot2-1472421842.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/570486\/5709-shot3-1472421842.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"ArsonVille\r\n\r\nCan you destroy the whole village?\r\n\r\nYou're armed with a small set of fire proliferating goodies, and only ONE chance to start the fire.\r\n\r\n","title":"ArsonVille"}
