The void is a mysterious place full of burning embers. You claim a small piece of land on the brink of ruin and nurture it in order to further your stay.
Feed the void with grown crops to expand and drain your lakes of water in order to put out the everlasting fires that rain from above. Water is your only friend in this game.
Fire, water and agriculture are some of the first things humanity set out to master. Now it is your turn.

Does this game has a goal, or is it an infinite growing island?
However, I liked the art style - simple yet attracting. The controls need some improvement. Gameplay seems nice.
You need to monitor it all the time, or else everything burns away.
Some SFX for fire would be great, so you can quickly check, when the world needs your attention.
I expanded a few water tiles, and added a lot of wheat (which seems to have the highest efficiency by far, even scaled to the growth time) - still, without any endgoal (like, idk "Build and protect 10 alien tiles"), I lacked motivation after a while.
Cool graphics, music and innovation, I need to give you that!
In any case, needs a more clear ending, so people don't just lose inspiration and quit, like I did. But this is a very good core idea! The rain cost might need nerfing though.
