The island volcano near your village erupts, there is no way to save the village, but you can at least try to save your people!
Problem is : the only boat you have is little, you can only save few people at one time, so until the boat come back, you can try to slow down the lava by building basic barriers with the help of the remaining people to carry and place rocks or whatever can stop this.
The houses can slow down the lava, but all the people must have somewhere to rest and stay secure, and the less houses left, the less people that can stay safe…

I didn't vote for this theme, because I don't like it. But this still is a good theme on my point of view, as it can lead to a lot of different ideas and gameplays. The theme is good, but I lost a lot of time making some new components on my own engine, needed to do the game I had in mind. And so, the game is a very (very) minimalistic version of what I could have done if I would have not lost all this time - but this is part of LD for me, and at least, I have improved my game engine (and had fun, has always) :smile:
