Set fire to the firemen, set fire to the fire engines, set fire to the helicopters. At least all the firemen survived off screen :sweat_smile: I couldn't survive the last wave, I think I'm supposed to hold the last fireman for awhile to let the fire regain its strength?
Fun little game, thanks for making it. _what is the annoying squeal?_
Actually laughed out loud when I read the description of the game. Nicely done overall. It would be fun (and maybe useful) if the enemies made a sound when they're thrown offscreen (e.g. firemen would yelp). The second wave lasted much longer than the other rounds so I'm not sure if maybe I wasn't actually getting rid of the firemen. Keep up the good work.
I'd like to use enemy units as candles to lit other units and them THROW them off the screen and smash other units. :-D
I dug the Fireman's "Ahaah!" Fun and cool idea: I played on PC but I think it'd be awesome with touchscreen controls too. Some additional things I wished for: 1) SFX for the engines, helicopters when they're ignited; 2) a little background music. But awesome.
At first I didn't understand what was up with the helicopters after I set them on fire: I'd keep grabbing them and stuffing them back into the fire. I don't think I realized that they were effectively going down as they kept going across the screen lower and lower.
I really love the sound effects and particles. This was a nice simple game. Good job!
Great description, haha. I eventually got put out by a bunch of firefighters. Liked the ramp up and the different vehicles that came out. could be nice to see things that were on fire spread to things that weren't, but they were really trying hard to put the fire out so maybe they were well prepared. keep up the good work!
Really dug the low-fi graphics and particle effects. Also, found it strangely satisfying to throw the firemen, trucks, and helicopters into the fire. Made me chuckle. Great work!
The real boss is the window border. i think fullscreen would really help this game.
Nice simple game. Difficulty of wave 2 varies greatly: sometimes it is easy, sometime there are huge groups of firemen. It is not clear that you can use fire at first, so you can stuck on wave 3: helicopters are fast and sometimes appear out of view. After that level difficulty increases smoothly and is pretty same on wave 9 and final wave.
