Droplets against Heatwaves
A downloadable game
Here is my entry for the Game Off 2025, created in less than 1 month. Feel free to leave comments and suggestions in the comments section below :-)
You live in a forest world where plants and animals live in harmony.
But sometimes a fire breaks out, and you have to do everything you can to put it out before it spreads too far !
Or before you become completely dehydrated...
But who knows...
Maybe there's some good in letting your demons out from time to time. ?

Known bugs
- When you open the game, if you wait too long without pressing ENTER to start, evaporation begins after a while and you can become the dehydrated/enraged flame without having seen the droplet in its normal state and having done the tutorial, which is not great for understanding the game.

The watering mechanic is suuuper satisfying, I even went on and water for like 5 min without a goal. And thats the problem, after killing all the fires, I couldn't get the last quest mark "Witness a fire" even thought I witnessed a fire (I think) and had nothing to do. It's also really hard to determine which part needs water. I was stuck at 98% for the remainder of my play time. The character is also very niice ! <3 Nice game tho!
Aaah, yes. The "witness a fire" quest isn't working; I'm trying to figure out why. I also noticed that it was difficult to find the remaining 2% to extinguish, sorry haha. Thank you for playing <3
