EVERYTHING'S ON FIRE by cirpig29

[raw]
made by cirpig29 for LD34 (JAM)
Smokey can't help you now! All that stands between you and a wasteland of ash is your trusty fire fighting plane and... abstract pickups falling from the sky? Look, don't think too hard about this, just extinguish all the fire before it grows too big to control.

----------------------------------

Controls:
<- : Steer left
-> : Steet right
Fly over pickups for speed or range boosts

----------------------------------

If you have the choice, we recommend Chrome for this game, as Firefox randomly takes issues with the performance. Also everything's bigger for some reason.

Got -40% on my first run, haha. Got 86% on my second run. Fun game. Only suggestion is some sort of restart level button.

Nice, good take on the theme. I like how creative you guys were with using both of the themes. The level-wrap around is interesting, I'm sure I could use it better but it was annoying at first. I still enjoyed it. Good work!

It was kind of fun flying around, but not knowing exactly what I was doing the first time, I was kind of helpless as I got a bad start. The second time I wiped out the fire really quick and then just had to wait for the end. So I think there could be some balancing in difficulty somehow. Like for example that a tile recently burnt but put out can't burn for a while again. Second, I think the win-condition should trigger on extinguishing the last fire. On that topic too, it would have been nice to at least be able to return to the menu or so after the game was over. Nice little arcade type game though.
