The concept seems like it would be too ambitious for a game jam, but you've executed it well. The two powers are well-considered, and the rules click after a few tries. The levels are nicely varied, too.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The fireball does seem a little overpowered compared to the other power, but the game feels too sandbox-y for that to be a bother. Wish there were more things to burn (abandoned houses, trash piles, deadwood, oil spills) and more levels, though. What are the odds of you continuing work on a post-LD version?"},{"author_name":"BoredOfYou","author_uid":"69184","time":"Dec 29, 2015 @ 7:20am","epoch":1451373300,"text":"Reset button doesn't work."}],"images":["ld34\/55213-2df9b84c4180325ecabf4b8e43b7d8e0.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/sh\/zj7popnpch2wsrh\/AABEv6Jd5kwGjqswfjAKGYYha","text":"Windows"},{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/sh\/zj7popnpch2wsrh\/AABEv6Jd5kwGjqswfjAKGYYha","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/sh\/zj7popnpch2wsrh\/AABEv6Jd5kwGjqswfjAKGYYha","text":"Linux"},{"url":"https:\/\/github.com\/sonelliot\/ludum-dare-34","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"4697","g_author":"55213","g_event":"LD34","g_eventkey":"31","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"4684","g_title":"Playing With Fire","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"541","g_commentcount":"20","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\/\/511439\/55213-shot0-1450111912.gif-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Grow your fire. Burn things. Profit.\r\n\r\nThe orange meter is for energy. When you heat things or launch a fireball you will use energy.\r\n\r\nThe red meter is how much stuff you have burnt. Fill it to complete the level!\r\n\r\nThemes: Both.\r\n\r\nControls:\r\n\r\n- Left Button: Heat an area to spread flames. Must already be on fire to be heated.\r\n- Right Button: Drop a ball of fire on area to start a new fire.\r\n\r\nTips:\r\n\r\n- Yellow grass is highly flammable and will burn easily. Use it to quickly spread to other parts of a level.\r\n- Trees take longer to burn earn you more points when burnt.\r\n\r\nCredits: Peter, Matt, Elliot (@sonelliot)","title":"Playing With Fire"}
