Divine Rain by Jackaljk
You are a generous and powerful God. Your people worship and respect you, so naturally when the village is attacked by your evil rival they ask for your help. You can't find your Divine Extinguisher in the hurry, but you quickly figure out an alternative solution.
Make sure to be well watered before playing.

That all the sounds are with the voice makes it very special. Very funny, and for God's sake, let no one drink more lemonade!
Around the ~5m mark the meter starts requiring constant clicking, which was the point I sort of stopped since it aggravates my wrist; but it looks like you can just hold the- uh- *divine rain* over a single house and basically never lose; so the the final boss more that than the fire itself.
Great work!
@lobo-iberico they do get their warning!
@mcmuniz i agree, didn't have time to make it better tho
@fireslash yes that's right, I realized it and decided not to fix it because that is sooo delay the inevitable :P
@jcmonkey agreed, thought about it but didn't have enough time
@hartvichio i'm not sure whether you liked the humour or not haha
Managed to hold about 5:15 min.
@s-onoe you are absolutely right about the area of effect vs what it looks like visually, I should have paid more attention to that
@black-flag yeah makes sense, it should happen very rarely and didn't have time to fix it, sorry about that. Glad you had fun!
@cubanfrog i really appreciate your feedback, what specific accessibility problems did you notice?
The mechanic is simple but for and the controls quite friendly. I would have like a small parabol on my "fountain" but that's nitpicking. I would recommend a sound when the houses get completely destroyed.
From a fellow god theme LD dev, well done!
