The Weekly game jam entry for week 89. The theme is "arson". I twisted the theme a little based on the graphics I could come up with from opengameart.com. Also I used a bunch of sounds from freesound.org. Not the least thanks to Joshua McLean for the music. 

The game is about a lone Arsonist. A magic user in the art of fire. He like to throw fireballs. There is some kind of AI in the game. Ad hoc made. Check the game out!

Yeah one more thing remember to jump :)

Cool game. One thing that felt a big bad to me is that the player is too slow and movement doesnt feel "platformy". Great start anyway!

Great Game! I really enjoy the level designs and how you have to defeat all the knights to advance. One thing that I felt iffy about was how slow the character was. Wasn't sure if it was intentional or not, but his jump went very far compared to his actual movement. Just a thought. Overall, great job! Everything looks great!

Thank you for the recent comments. I appreciate it. For GDWC. I may consider it :)

Hey there! The game was good even though I experienced a few bugs like if you keep firing the arsonists will keep jumping and you can kill them pretty easily afterwords, the bonus level was good true that! keep up the good work maybe add different maps and levels and this could a be a great game!

Best game in the jam!

Great job on this game! The gameplay has a nice feel to it, with the style of gameplay requiring constant attention. Graphically, maybe you could add some effects to signify impacts of characters, by for example making the arsonist squash and stretch when he hits the ground, and squash vertically when he shoots, maybe sending him a little bit back. The bonus level was good.
