Save the kitties! You’re their only hope!
History
Jones On Fire is the prequel to Hot Tin Roof that began its life at BlazeJam (http://www.blazejam.com), a 48 hour charity game jam to benefit those affected by the Colorado wild fire season of 2012. An initial alpha of the game was made in 48 hours, and polished over the next week. You can even play the alpha of Jones On Fire, if you choose to buy the BlazeJam bundle. The game has evolved substantially since those days, though. It’s been rebuilt for mobile devices, all of the art has been redone or replaced, the moment to moment gameplay is substantially changed, a level structure was added, etc, etc. Compared to the alpha, the game Jones On Fire is a whole other animal. That is, except for the kitties. Those are still the same animal.
