Wildfire is a two player game. Each player is always moving and can adjust their speed and change their direction. While moving, a player draws a line where they have been. A player can draw over their own lines, but if a player goes over an enemy line they lose health. To avoid going over enemy lines, a player can try to jump. Items will spawn on the playing map and players must race to pick them up. Some items may clear out the enemies drawing, other may give a player more health. The goal is to stay alive longer than the enemy to beat them.
Player 1
- Movement: WASD
- Jump: Spacebar
Player 2
- Movement: Arrow keys
- Jump: Enter
Our responsibilities overlapped in most areas and we often did pair programming. We worked together on most things, but we still each had our areas of focus.

We found that when pulling new or changed files from git, Godot sometimes would not recognize the new files. This made it hard to quickly share work between ourselves, so we opted to pair program when we could.
