Bushburner

Bushburner

Burn bushes, amongst other things...

You're lost. You're alone. And you've got a flamethrower.

Bushburner is a fast-paced, top-down jungle survival game made in under 72 hours for Spring 2D Jam '25. Cut your way through overgrown vegetation and forgotten military remnants with nothing but fire and instinct. There’s no map, no guide - just you and your burning path forward.

• Flamethrower Traversal - Burn bushes to move forward, clear space, and reveal hidden paths.
• Physics-Based Interaction - Grab and throw explosive barrels to wreak havoc or clear blocked paths (partly implemented).
• Atmospheric Jungle Setting - Surreal and isolated environment with layered audio and visual mood.
• Immersive Soundtrack - Ethnic-inspired music sets the tone for mystery and danger.
