* You can play the version 1.1 of the game. This version add music and mostly bug fixes. Made during the extra 24h of submission. You can still play the first version game if you want though (the name of the game used to be _Paper Burn_ as I was very uninspired) *

At the beginning, I didn't understood I could grab the objects.
It's really a cool game! A multiplayer version with different boards/level and "weapons" could be great! I love the graphics! A really solid and fun entry.

This was surprisinggly fun! I hope you guys work on this more cause i can see this as a little multiplayer game that people can play to kill the time, I played it for quite a bit great work! More variety and maybe different maps is all I can ask, which should tell you how nice this game was! Great work!

This is amazing. I lost multiple rounds because I was just staring at the burning paper effect and wondering how you did it. The visuals really are amazing both artistically and technically. The game mechanics is fun too but there are some cases where the game enters a locked state till an item fall near one of the remaining players. This mainly happens when a large part has been burnt and most of the items fall in this part beyond the reach of anyone. Also, I feel that the game ends quickly because the first fire heavily determines the outcome. Overall, it was really pleasant to play this game and I hope you extend it with more stuff (maybe larger areas, fire extinguishers, etc). Excellent Job.

Okay. this has some of the most awesome "burning paper" visuals I've seen in an LD game. The game is fun too but it's the graphical effects that amazed me here :)

I love art, I love music, I love all in this game... I love this game! Best LD42 game in my opinion!
I would like to play with my friends.

Bug: items sometimes disappear after falling

This is fantastic! It's so simple but it's so fast-paced and well-executed. The shaders and burning physics are incredible. This is definitely one of, if not the best game I've played so far.

Like others said, multiplayer would be great. I also ran into a bug a couple of times where I would die but the game wouldn't end.

Graphics in this was fantastic. I had a hard time grabbing things (might be my mouse button), but even so I think it would make sense if you pickup whatever you walk into and have an easy time throwing it. Most time I could win without being the arsonist though. Really cool concept that could be further explored in many ways.

One of the best games i have played this LD42, I like the use of 2D sprites mapped in a 3D space, NPC behaviour looks really good. Burning Fx is great, congrats!
