dude i kept like a caseoh bingo card around the height of Arsonate's popularity. I think he played just about every other game in top-10 but Arsonate somehow. Mind you, Arsonate was on the front page of itch at the time as well. I'd be suprised if he suddenly found it at this point.
Idea: If you'll make more difficulties, here's an surprise for final and hardest. I care to explain: [HOST] after losing won't give up and will pull out axe, then will try to kill player, and here's mini-mechanic: In short key mash section idk, here's concept, and yeah i'm maining pixelart :pNeeded explanation? Sure!
In short [HOST] got pissed off and using his axe to kill ya. Highlighted button it the one you need to press, it's repeating in Tic-Tac sequence, aka Q-E-Q-E, upper bar shows up how much you mashing... or hp ig, in short get this high enough or [HOST] will... i dunno, maybe will try to kill you with much more force, so it'll be much harder :p
ngl i think fair mode not allowing crowbar stealing actually just makes the game harder since if the host gets a crowbar you cant use arson or fire extinguisher anymore because he will steal it instantly next turn. instead of being able to rob the hosts crowbar to stop this like in normal you just need to scrap 50% of the tools you get lmao
both you and the host die (or live i guess but thats boring) if the only possible move for both players is burning their own tower AND both have an extinguisher and a gas can
So glad to see the progression of this game! Haven't had a chance to play it since the jam. It looks like you've done some amazing work on it since! Can't wait to re-play it now!! :D Great work!
Sound and visuals were atmospheric and immersive and there’s genuine tension towards the endgame. Full marks on presentation.
But… I do feel like success is very much dependent on luck: what your board looks like and what utilities you get. I understand that it’s The Point, some desperate death game that’s rigged against you. But that also means I didn’t really feel like playing it more than twice once I “got” the winning strat.
I think it’s a wonderful demo and I’m glad you’re still responding and shitposting down here in the comment section. I just think it needs a bit more complexity and replay value :)
man it's so good, at the end of the match I felt a lump in my throat, I was very tense, even my heart was distressed. Thank you so much for this, I loved it so much, thanks
and heres a theory for everyone.i think we ARE the dealer from buckshot roulette or the guy you go against with is him.nash.i know that we are dealer from buckshot roulette.anyone agree with me?
beautiful game. art style is great and you can tell a lot of work went into both the balancing and the mechanics itself - stellar job, especially for a gama jam piece. real nice
yea i agree. i kinda put more effort into the bad endings since i figured that ppl were gonna see those more. hopefully the addition of unlockable modes in the full release helps with this.

I need Caseoh to play this
dude i kept like a caseoh bingo card around the height of Arsonate's popularity.

idea for a secret ending
(i suck at drawing hands)
love the game but the host pulls WAY too many crowbars. it feels like the Host has a 50% crowbar pull rate.
second note, the gasoline and crowbar as the best pulls with extinguished being a close second. the axe and telescope need a buff to be balanced out.
also this would be really cool as a 4player game, with each player needing to way the odds on using their utilities.
so true
I loved the idea of this and see really great potential for it, especially with the versatility of card games. Can't wait to see you expand on it.
I beat both gamemodes without dying once. cool game tho, just easy af.
banana
you should add a secret ending where after beating the host, you pick up the rest of your cards and die
I JUST WANT TO KILL THAT ANNOYING ASS MF
Absolutley LOVE it! Geat game over all, reminds me of Buchshot Roulette with its own little twist!
<3
I guess you could say this game is pretty...fire? *mehoymenoy!*
I won without realizing it, the game is too easy on normal. I was also called a pity

also unless im unlucky i think the host cant get extinguisher or arson while you have a crowbar which is mean :(
oh i won, yippee
silly lil idea for an ending:
both you and the host die (or live i guess but thats boring) if the only possible move for both players is burning their own tower AND both have an extinguisher and a gas can
i think ive pretty much figured out the AI ngl
pyro? what are you doing here?

"mhrphprhhr!"
oh ma gad ambatukaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam

this is true
that was amazing. you guys did amazing!!
thanks!
Wow, amazing game, wishlisted the full version
thanks very much appreciated. 🙏
Pretty decent for a demo.
thanks!
i have an idea for a secret ending. it happens if you discard the key.
lmao
man it's so good, at the end of the match I felt a lump in my throat, I was very tense, even my heart was distressed. Thank you so much for this, I loved it so much, thanks
thanks for playing!
hope it wasn't too tense lol.
It was tense, but I really loved the game
so uh, i managed to win even if started bad by and the go again cards, but managed to get lucky with the gas cans in the end, good game btw
ggs thanks
the host kinda looks cute teehee
*cutely kills you*
*Dies cuteley* teehee
host kept drawing crowbar out of thin air, that mf stealing my crowbar every fucking time
he's just a lil quirky

>Me trying to make you explode with my mind.
<Nash uses "psychic explosion" ... it wasnt very effective...>
beautiful game. art style is great and you can tell a lot of work went into both the balancing and the mechanics itself - stellar job, especially for a gama jam piece. real nice
Thanks!
*Disclaimer: This demo was built on top of the game jam version which is still available, but definitely not as good.
wish we could view what Host's utilities do
that's fair.
but you'll find out
This was really good! Solid mechanics and atmosphere, and really fun to play!
thanks for playing!
Egg salad Indeed
🥚🥗
it's giving pyro main
he's checking for spies.
buckshot roulette??!????
Its inspired by it.
ripoff roulette :)
/jk
The art? style in this game is fire.
ok, I’ll stop with the fire puns :3
This game is fire 🔥
pun intended
🗣🔥🔥
I will say tense game but the win ending was disappointing imo
Agreed. Should have the host burn to death while struggling or something like that.
or some twist where he doesn't actually have the key so you're stuck forever
yea i agree.
i kinda put more effort into the bad endings since i figured that ppl were gonna see those more.
hopefully the addition of unlockable modes in the full release helps with this.
