Description
h1. The Wildfire Fighting Game
_Indie game developed by Jason Thomas and Jan Richards._
h4. "Fire Jumpers has a unique visual look to it which I can only describe as a sort of top-down version of Minecraft." -"DroidGamers.com":http://www.droidgamers.com/index.php/game-news/android-game-news/4083-redblox-fire-jumper-android-game
h4. "Itâs easily the best firefighting game Iâve ever had the pleasure of playing.." -"The-AppShack.com":http://www.the-appshack.com/2012/09/firejumpers-redblox-games-199.html
h4. "FireJumpers is highly original and captures the challenge of containing a wildfire quite credibly." -"TouchArcade.com":http://www.applicationforiphone.com/2012/09/10/firejumpers-review-fighting-fires-bring-a-tablet/
It's a line-path drawing game where you control elite fire fighting units from helicopters to ground units to water bombers as they battle raging 1000+ simultaneous fires in epic maps with over 55,000 trees and other burnable stuff. This game requires skills, planning and strategy.

great game very enjoyable to play. are there any new levels coming soon?
Unfortunately, nothing new for this version. That's because I've been really busy building the cooperative multiplayer version called FireJumpers Sandbox! Currently only on Android, iOS coming soon, and hopefully a Desktop version too!

I love the new multiple-unit controls, very creative, perhaps speed it up. The minimap for movement is also very good. Keep it up.
Thanks.. overlapping-units control has been tricky at best. Glad you like the update :)

Pretty nice and unique game! I like the idea very much! :)
A few suggestions: have a scenario-specific background noise like shores with crispy fire cracking. Oh, and if I could send out orders to my units in pause mode that would be awesome. Will definitely look at any successor!
Thanks man. We initially.. long time ago, added a crackling fire sound.. but on a phone, it sounded terrible, so we took it out. Still looking into music for the game though.

at first I thout I wasn going to like but it but no great job to the (Dev) Keep it up and like the game alot 5/5
Thanks Nick for the great review! I know what you mean, I find most people shake their heads first when I tell them I built a wildfire fighting game. They are like, "Where's the zombies, the bullets?". Once you start playing it, you realize that there's a lot more strategy and depth to the game than it first appears! :D

Sometimes when two units are too close, it's really hard to control them.
I know what you mean.. I've been trying to find a good simple solution, but all I can think of is on every move a unit makes, swap it's depth to the bottom. Gets very confusing on 4th of July level with so many Hoser Teams. If you have a suggestion, I'm very open to new ideas.
