A strategy game based on The Fire of London.

Rules:
- Fire spreads to adjacent houses.
- To prevent fire from spreading further you must strategically destroy houses that surround the house which is on fire.
- You can use water to put out houses to slow down the spread of fire.
- In order to pass a level, a certain number of houses must remain.
- You can only destroy / put out a certain number of houses at a time.

Controls:
- Left click: Demolish house (house mustn't be on fire)
- Right click: Extinguish fire (uses water)

You should add a windows or web version of the game. We are a lot not having a mac. Sadly, I can't play nor rate your game (which looks great). :-(

Ah yeah sorry guys. It was my first time uploading to itch.io and I couldn't work out how to upload WebGL or Windows versions.

Very nice idea, graphics could be a little bit more polished. If I may suggest, just adding some cool font for example is easy to be done and the game feels much more polished. Also I didn't hear any audio but I can see audio category, is that bug or something on my side? As other have said, if you want to get more ratings, you should probably try to upload that windows or webgl version, it shouldn't be a problem on itch.io. Most of the time I have exactly oposite problem (I'm a mac user), games with only windows build :D

Thanks :smile:. I ran out of time to add audio and I forgot to opt out when I submitted. I agree about the fonts, Arial was a bad call.

The look of game is very nice, but the UI is not that good...

@henry-denny You probably can make a build on other plateform even after the jam weekend! A webgl or window would be nice!

I guess but I want it to be voted in the "Jam" category as opposed to the "Unfinished" category. Sorry for only releasing a MacOS build.

You're still permitted to port, even now.

Your game looks really good (the idea is very interesting). Too bad I haven't a mac :pensive:
