Spread

It was fun burning down the trees!

Spread the fire! Burn it all down!
Cool if you develop it further :)

This game doesn't seem to work for me. The window just closes itself :(

nice game. simple but fun to play

One small developer note (I wrote my game in Java too, even not with LWJGL): I alway prefer if the game is a single file. And its really easy to put the resources into the jar and let your game read them there. (Try something like Game.class.getResource("path/to/file.png"))

I'm getting a Pixel not Accelerated error. Probably my computer. I'll try this on another computer later on. Looking forward to trying this one!

Cyboot: Ok, it's one file now. Thanks for the tip :)

Kuulog: can you run the game from a terminal/ command prompt and tell me the error? What OS and java version are you running?

Hi again. I wanted to try your game again to find the firefly-reference you mentioned but I get an error with this new version.

this is the stacetrace: (Win7 32bit this time)

the flames always appeared above my head instead of at the proper place.

mikemacdee: Sorry, that's a bug I'm working on

Cyboot: I believe my lwjgl things have some sort of issue with 32 bit. I'll see what I can do. Also, I think I phrased my comment poorly about firefly, just read the description of the game more closely.

the game has been closing whenever I touch the top edge of the screen while flaming making it pretty hard to win. Good work though.

Neat game, but the game never gave me more than about 5 trees to burn down, so I could beat rather quickly. This seems like it would be a lot of fun if you keep working on it.
