Kill It With Fire: Ignition news & patch notes

Rev up your engines, exterminators - the Anniversary Update is here! It has been an amazing year for Kill It With Fire and Casey Donnellan Games, so I wanted to do something special for everyone who has joined me on this spider roasting journey. There’s an entire NEW LEVEL for you to rid of spiders along with new gear, upgrades, achievements, and the first ever Kill It With Fire “Community Event.” Let’s break it down - if you’re worried about spoilers, stop reading now!

Last warning!

The new mission, “Down the Spider Hole” takes place just after “Domestic Duties” and allows you to explore the yard around the house from the first three missions. As you may have guessed, it’s lousy with spiders. Fortunately, with a new level comes new opportunities for spider murdering mayhem. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/9059e99fced8d4d34d011fe995cfbd735a05b03b.gif A new cheese puff flavor is on the scene: Best Buds Blueberry. “Ew, blueberry cheese puffs?” Well it turns out spiders have less discerning palettes. Get one to chow down and they’ll become your new BFF. These Spider Bros know your heart’s desire and will mercilessly pursue any spider they see. And don’t worry - if you tire of your spider army you can always relieve them of duty...permanently. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/a3432d567f379a2b08077e2f35b345c5fea1815e.gif The next item you’ll find in the new mission is the Drone. This was added during the “Omega Files” update last year and available during the epilogue mission, once you completed enough Arachno-Gauntlets. It’s so much fun, though, I’ve decided to move it to earlier in the game. You’re also gonna need it during the new mission to find everything… {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/4701f3a44875072750ed3c84e5175f05ca9357ac.gif All that lawn and nobody home to mow - it would be neighborly to “borrow” their Mower and tidy up. If some spiders get in the way...well, isn’t there an old saying about throwing rocks at birds? This isn’t your grandpa’s old push mower - you’re getting a riding lawnmower with serious horsepower. Still not enough speed? Equip the NOS upgrade to go fast and make the spiders furious. Once you’re done mowing the lawn, take her for a spin in the other missions! That brings us to the Community Event. I won’t get into specifics, even for people who want spoilers, but I will say a few things. To get started, look for something NEW where the Drone was previously located. After that, you’ll need to combine your clues with other Exterminators to find the answer. Make sure you join the Discord - that’s where it’s all gonna happen! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/f0beea99ddcc58c4ab8de032935f1def84b2690c.gif Anything else new? Duh!

• Added a trampoline

Happy holidays, spider hunters! The year is almost over and I think we’re all ready to put this one behind us. The trials and tribulations of 2020 aside, I’m excited that I was able to share Kill It With Fire with the world this year - and I hope you were excited to play it! If you haven't picked it up yet, now is a great time - the game is 40% off! As you know, the holiday season is upon us and a big Holiday Update has come to Kill It With Fire! Even if you’ve been bad (nuke any towns lately?) you’re getting NINE gifts this year. But it ain’t gonna be as simple as ripping off the wrapping paper. Each mission now features a Christmas tree, but there’s one problem...no ornaments! To receive each gift, you’ll need to hunt down the decorations and place them on the tree. Before we talk about what Santa brought you, allow me to provide a few holiday tips and tricks. First, the Secret Sniffer upgrade for the Spider Tracker DOES work on ornaments. Second, to avoid extra trips back to the tree you can suck up ornaments using the vacuum, then spit them back out later. Finally, if you’re having trouble finding an ornament don’t despair...try looking up!

*** SPOILERS AHEAD ***

*** SERIOUSLY, YOU'VE BEEN WARNED ***

*** TURN BACK NOW, IT'S YOUR LAST CHANCE ***

Now, let’s get down to the real Holiday business: GIFTS. There’s nine in total and it doesn’t matter in what order you decorate the trees, you’ll always earn the gifts in the same order. There’s two new pieces of equipment, three new upgrades, a new tracker upgrade, a new flavor, and two sets of bonus upgrade points (one regular and one for the tracker). Let’s get into the details: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/dc53ecce7f7b3e842b607935208ff53522be397c.gif

• Laser Sword: An elegant weapon for more civilized spider hunters. Burns on impact.
• Spider Noir: Lets you play in black and white
• Lucky Dice: They don’t do anything, but they look cool!
• Low Gravity: Reduces gravity for you, the spiders, and all physics objects!
• Radioactive Wasabi: Cheese Puff flavor that can transform spiders into Radioactive Spiders.
• Laser Gun: Fires projectiles that ricochet several times, potentially igniting whatever they hit.
• Gene Splicer: Randomizes which spiders appear in the mission, meaning potentially any spider can appear in any mission.

That wraps it up! Have fun finding the ornaments and playing with the new toys. If you have trouble finding them, I recommend hitting the Kill It With Fire Discord. And, as always be sure to follow the game on Twitter or Facebook.Good luck and happy holidays!!! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1179210/Kill_It_With_Fire/ Sincerely, {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/edd94ef880d9058c144f99c7aba0d6b8b9d4e3b1.png Casey Donnellan Twitter: @caseydonnellan

Hello spider hunters! Kill It With Fire 1.1 is now available and with it comes some pretty big changes to your favorite spider hunting simulator: new equipment, a new spider variant, special settings for arachnophobes, overhauled gamepad support, multiple save slots, and (of course!) the Omega Files! Let’s break it down:

Omega Files

If you’ve already played KIWF you may have discovered some random manilla folders featuring the omega symbol, the last letter of the Greek alphabet. Well, I hope you remember where you found them because now you can collect and read them to discover the answers to some of the game’s many mysteries. For instance: why are there so many spiders? Where are all the people? And what’s the deal with the cheese puffs?

Vacuum

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/ce8711823b8b751b8f9b936bc0bf27ca9d796890.gif Next, let’s talk equipment. There are two new weapons added in the update. The first is the vacuum. You can use the vacuum to “suck up” just about anything laying around, including spiders. Then you can switch the vacuums direction and shoot it all back out. You can find the vacuum in “Domestic Duties”, appropriately enough.

Drone

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/11133afa7a4c9ac314b6656ec6d2e5b3c3ede84b.gif The second new weapon is a remote-controlled drone with a bomb strapped to it. While you’re flying the drone, use its thermal vision camera to locate spiders, then swoop in and self-destruct. The drone is available in “Consequences”.

Arachnophobia Settings

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/61d8d2698ce531ead08390606f54cdbc4bfeb5ec.png{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/50596b5cbe35704e9130d33b89cbab0d45b56048.png Are you terrified of spiders? If so, I have good news. Kill It With Fire now features special options for people with arachnophobia. Simply open the settings menu (from the main menu or in-game) and customize the options to your liking. You can disable “scary spiders” to make them look more blobby and less spider-like as well as disable their SFX, the jumpscare sounds, and creepy music. Please let me know whether or not these settings helped you to enjoy the game! Are there any other settings you’d like to see? Accessibility is always an ongoing conversation and this is just a first step!

Supplyder

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/6fd9ac872a14ebd7cbe3af4b9333ee726d83a772.gif Next up is a new type of spider I like to call the “supplyder”. It’s basically a spider with a supply crate strapped to its back. When you damage the spider, the crate breaks open and ammo pops out. Neat, huh? You’ll start encountering supplyders in “Domestic Duties”, so keep your eyes peeled!

Other Cool Stuff

Do you have a friend or family member who wants to play the game, but can’t because you don’t want to erase your save file? You’re in luck as KIWF now features three save slots! Your original save automatically takes up the first slot. To erase a slot, simply select it and choose Erase Save game from Settings -> General. The last major new item in v1.1 is improved gamepad support. Kill It With Fire now features enhanced aim acceleration while using the gamepad. Also, spider hitbox size has been increased while using the gamepad to make using weapons like the revolver, silenced pistol, and throwing stars much more feasible. Still reading? Wow, you’re really dedicated to fighting the spider menace. Here’s a handy bulleted list of the changes:

Major Features

• Omega Files: Your chance to unravel the twisted storyline is officially here. Collect the eight dossiers hidden throughout the game to discover info about the spiders’ origins.
• New Equipment: Vacuum, suck anything up, then spit it back out!
• New Equipment: Drone, remote controlled flying robot that can self destruct
• New Spider: Supplyder - carries an ammo crate; bust it open and reload!
• Arachnophobia Settings
• Save Slots
• Enhanced Gamepad Support

Minor Bug Fixes

• Resolved an issue where equipment could be double-assigned by equipping/unequipping the Cargo Shorts upgrade.
• Resolved an issue where equipment could get stuck in an odd position by swapping while a melee weapon was being held back.
• Fixed an issue where the Yes/No buttons on the Refund Upgrade Points confirmation popup would never appear.
• Fixed an issue where hitting back/escape during the end of level confirmation popup would result in odd behavior.
• Resolved an issue where spiders would spawn in inaccessible locations (usually in the hedge maze) during levels 4 and 6.

Calling all spider hunters, Our time has finally arrived: Kill It With Fire is now available on Steam! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1179210/Kill_It_With_Fire/ It has been a blast building Kill It With Fire and I'm thrilled to be able to share it with the world. If you enjoyed the demos, I suspect you'll love the full game. It has tons more levels, weapons, upgrades, challenges, and most importantly - MORE SPIDERS! Creating Kill It With Fire was an enormous undertaking for me. Since I left my job at Rooster Teeth nearly a year ago I've been working on this game full-time while living off of my savings - including hiring a few key contractors out of my own pocket. The result is a wild, wacky game that was a huge personal and creative risk, but also clearly a labor of love. Is Kill It With Fire for everyone? If you're TRULY arachnaphobic, this might be a little too much for you. BUT, if you're looking for several hours jam-packed with insane, slightly terrifying, collateral damage-causing MAYHEM you could hardly choose a better game than Kill It With Fire. If you're also interested in supporting independent game development, grabbing this game is a no-brainer! Of course, there's no way most of you would even be reading this without the amazing people at TinyBuild! From creating incredible trailers, to boring (but important!) stuff like localization and QA, this game would not be where it is today without their support. Thanks, TinyBuild! So what's next for Kill It With Fire? If you make it all the way to the game's secret ending, you might have some idea of where the game might be going next. But...I'm not against going in another direction first. So, what do you think? More levels? New Game+ where the spiders can actually kill you? Replace the spiders with something else? Randomly generated levels? VR? Multiplayer? A level editor? I'm not going anywhere, so please let me know in the comments below! Want to meet a community of like-minded spider exterminating enthusiasts? Be sure to join the Kill It With Fire Discord. And, as always be sure to follow the game on Twitter or Facebook. Last but certainly not least - what are you waiting for?! Go buy the game!

Hello spider hunters! The reckoning approaches - KIWF comes out next Thursday, August 13th. It's been a wild ride making this game. Although I'm the only person working on Kill It With Fire full-time, the game would not be what it is without the help of some very talented friends/accomplices. I thought now might be a great time to look back on everything and call out some of the people who helped along the way. All of these folks have been immortalized into Kill It With Fire as in-game portraits. There, thousands of spiders will crawl over their faces for all eternity. Thanks guys, you're the best! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/719b0edc1d3b861b038889922c8297e359ba5abe.png First, let's talk about that music! Kill It With Fire's soundtrack was composed by the incredible Trevor Whitaker Black. The game would NOT be the same without his music. Honestly, I think a lot of people are surprised by how good it is. You're just expecting a silly game about killing spiders, but the sound really sucks you in. BTW - Trevor also has worked on the soundtrack for a few movies, including Kingsmen! You should follow him on Twitter: @TrevorWBlack {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/a3443955ddd3d62ad7a4791db97ed3c9fdf578d3.png Cara Curley did all of the game's excellent graphic design. That includes the equipment icons, the amazing portraits, the achievement icons, and a few other odds and ends. She insisted that her cat, Moose, be included in her portrait. Who am I to say otherwise? Here's to you, Cara! Make sure you follow her on Twitter: @IDrawCaraLines {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/da963cdbeb2934f774dd8b37dfb4170cbecf7f1a.png Next up is Abe Robertson. Me and Abe go waaay back. We've worked on several games together and when I needed some extra help making the game look pretty, he was the first and only person I called. Abe did a little bit of everything on KIWF - he worked on lighting, visual effects, the skyboxes, special materials, and more. His biggest contribution, however, is the cinematic that plays when you beat the game...but you'll need to wait until August 13th to see that. I don't think Abe really uses Twitter but follow him anyway! @RobertsonAbe {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/a112784a5b507ceff8d0ae1e7866560231be1f0b.png I did most of the SFX for Kill It With Fire myself, but I knew there was one area where it would be wise to call in the professionals: the spiders. I hired Kat Wenske and Zachary Woomer from Team Audio to create spider sounds that are guaranteed to stick with you long after finish playing the game. Each type of spider has a unique set of sounds, kinda like the special infected in L4D. Learn what they sound like and you'll never be surprised when one jumps at your face! Follow Kat on Twitter: @jelfish67. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/711825f6f2d930c4b338b11c9627ebda66ed38e6.png Perhaps you've heard of a small publishing company called TinyBuild? Kill It With Fire got picked up by them back in February (before the dark times...) and the game wouldn't be where it is today without them! Represented here by their CEO, Alex Nichiporchik, they've been instrumental in promoting the game, localization, quality assurance, and tons of other stuff. Plus, they're just all around good people. Big thanks to Artem, Yulia, Andrei, Sunny, and the whole QA department. I wish I had portraits for all of you! I would say follow them on Twitter but honestly, they have enough followers already. Follow the game instead: @kiwf_game {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/4f980a13a3a4eb12fe16c116458dac7833fee07f.png Thanks to everyone else who helped and supported me along the way. Bryan Lian created the model for the tracker and did a few of the portraits and Josh Guglielmo created the original logo and key art. Also, thanks to my beautiful wife Kathryn, our families, and my Little (through BBBS), Juan, who provided the shark art. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/d641b7f1e801c642a8a9b154dd766aaf4564a174.png That leaves yours truly. I haven't really talked about myself much during these updates, but that's me, Casey Donnellan. This game was my vision and I've spent nearly every day for the past 10 months making it come to life. I've been making games professionally for 8 years, mostly working for larger companies (Certain Affinity, Rooster Teeth), but this is my first, big, solo project. Despite all the trouble in the world these days, it has been an amazing experience and I hope that Kill It With Fire does well enough to allow me to continue making games independently. If you'd like to keep in touch, follow me on Twitter: @caseydonnellan For all the latest on Kill It With Fire, join the Discord, or follow the game on Twitter/ Facebook. As always, make sure you wishlist the game, or if you really hate spiders you can pre-order it and save 10%! https://store.steampowered.com/app/1179210/Kill_It_With_Fire/

Hey spider gang! Kill It With Fire comes out in less than two weeks. AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH! I'm going to be busy making minor improvements, fixing bugs, and doing some performance optimization through next week. It's so, so close to being ready and I can't wait for everyone to see it! So instead of showing more equipment, spiders, or levels I decided to talk about something completely new today: ACHIEVEMENTS! Kill It With Fire will launch on Steam with 24 achievements. Some of them are easy to get, others...not so much. All achievement art was done by Cara Curley (@IDrawCaraLines). She also created all of the equipment icons and the in-game portraits. You might have seen one of her on a certain fireplace... Let's look at a few of 'em. If you don't want to know what the achievements are, abandon this post while ye can! You've been warned.

*** LIGHT SPOILERS AHEAD! ***

Spick and Span - Destroy EVERY dish in Domestic Duties. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/f178d6d0a2ed265017c47bf2312ed95fc09ea035.jpg Just say NOPE - Kill a Jumping Spider in mid-air. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/ba8049bfc9303ae00d8fd6b7dd16beba4bba337f.jpg That's All Folks - Kill a spider by dropping an anvil on it. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/611996ad8f7117bd18f51cd75fa2a99d9a05286f.jpg Line of Succession - Transform a Spiderling hatched from a Queen into a Queen. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/9f24c280b96913938b49ac100ec85dca1d195330.jpg MLG Pro - 360 no-scope a spider with the Assault Rifle {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/a960c4ab6d29053a0342caa73f16d96ebc7379c1.jpg Sub-Par - Sink a putt. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/4f8b1b82766a4944cc5892b2fef52cf44d0ca102.jpg Good luck with them, especially the dish achievement. You might need think outside the box to get it... That's enough for now! A few non-achievement updates: First, I'm changing the way spiders respond to cheese puffs. Previously, only certain spiders would go after particular flavors of cheese puff. Specifically, they would only try to eat them if they could transform from doing so and they would only transform into more "advanced" forms. That's all gone now - every spider will pursue every flavor and can transform into any other type. Next, I've put a limit on how long spiders will get spooked for. Previously, if you hit a spider or fired a gun near it, they would speed up and stay at that speed until they died, or found a new hiding spot. They'll now only get a speed boost for a few seconds. Some of the later levels are a bit darker. There's a flashlight upgrade, but for players who didn't find it, I've put a tiny white dot in the middle of the aiming reticle; it's subtle, but I found that it really helps to aim in low light situations. Finally, I've moved the upgrade equip menu to the mission preview (where you click "PLAY") for easier access. In addition, I've created a little "breadcrumb" system to tell you about new upgrades you haven't looked at yet.

What's up, exterminators? Did you think I was done introducing spiders? ABSOLUTELY NOT. Enter the Web Spider (and yes, I know that most spiders IRL have webs, but only one type in KIWF does)!!! The Web Spider has a nasty trick up its sleeves (and it's a spider, so it has a lot of sleeves) - it shoots a web at you. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/e35bfc353835ec418555bcc6b174a2a67eaa4e54.gif If you've ever had a Blooper used on you in Mario Kart, you might notice a similarity. If the web hits your face, it makes it very difficult to see what's going on - providing the web spider and its allies a means of escape. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/c82886d2a21a74cb7d484d39eb3007ab18e45403.gif Fortunately for you, not all weapons require precise targeting. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/6c286987f96f211de2ec9679de3232282517ba35.gif For all the latest on Kill It With Fire, join the Discord, or follow the game on Twitter/ Facebook.

What's up, exterminators? If you played Ignition when it first came out, you may recall that spiderlings were originally red, after the first patch, they changed to white. Why? I decided to make an exploding spider and, according to the most hallowed video game traditions, things that explode when you shoot them must be red. So, without further ado - THE EXPLODING SPIDER! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/ed5726bbec55cd779f3fee829c3c729e0820a8c6.gif How does it work? Simple - kill this spider and (after a short charge-up) it explodes. The explosion can knock stuff around, set stuff on fire, and even kill other spiders! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/dfa488a0251ed630e2734a8f11b386a360b6c30d.gif The exploding spider is different from others in one crucial aspect - it is immune to fire. That's right, your most important ally is useless here. Fortunately, you've got A LOT of other weapons to work with! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/9ab723aa79cef9fdc5975a3a27e145b81cb01f40.gif For all the latest on Kill It With Fire, join the Discord, or follow the game on Twitter/ Facebook.

What's up, exterminators? Today, I introduce the most terrifying spider yet. As we all know, most spiders are scary. But even the worst spider was still just one spider - until now. Introducing the Queen Spider. She's big, tough, and when you finally do manage to take her down, a handful of Spiderlings erupt from her corpse. Disgusting! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/5583f9bad536c7abcefe3d01bdafdaac54f29295.gif You can also see a bit more of the convenience store level in these GIFs and a new weapon - the frying pan. It's slower than the clipboard but it does a lot more damage, enough to kill even the Queen in one hit. But, you might want to change tactics when facing the Spiderlings that come afterwards. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/cf66ca1f111f6eaaf063c777f5c3a21b9b380a40.gif As with most spiders, fire is always a popular option. Set the whole area on fire with say, a Molotov, and you might be able to roast the spiderlings on their way out. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/a6fee558cad0a69426cec676cbdc9e3db394e1d7.gif For all the latest on Kill It With Fire, join the Discord, or follow the game on Twitter/ Facebook.

What's up, exterminators? Today, I've got TWO things to introduce - some new equipment and the destruction system! First off, the energy drink - chug one of these bad boys and time will slow down - for everything but you, that is. It's perfect for lining up shots on speedy spiders. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/c43ab583dcf04e55b40855204ed0498edf50c25f.gif Why is it green, you ask? Don't worry about it - I'm sure its perfectly healthy. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/7ba2b907a02807a7c64bf3f734bb215bbaf9d2cd.gif Next, let's talk DESTRUCTION. Lighting things on fire is all well and good, but blasting them apart is where the fun really starts. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/5f9d6c04301e23414b48bff21498996f0b1bede0.gif Spiders all over your dinnerware? Forget the dishwasher - pull out the RPG. No dishes, no problems! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/a88e374ce35912a56ca23072d000f7a162f858d9.gif For all the latest on Kill It With Fire, join the Discord, or follow the game on Twitter/ Facebook.

How do you do, fellow exterminators? The Gas Station: it feels like there's one on every corner. But what else is on every corner? That's right: spiders. Fortunately, you can stop off at the Gas Station to refill on two of the exterminator's most important tools - energy drinks and (you guessed it) gasoline. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/e338e85979a7290ad5001c8e52ff7ee18fbf7e7f.gif This level is more than just the parts of the gas station that customers normally see - it also includes an area out back filled with some special (explosive) surprises. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/8124476aee3787862e991a9d0a13ada11ec12ce9.gif For a closer look at the Gas Station, check out this video on Twitter. ːsteamhappyː {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/01d310b7d06a84cbd84969436ad9db0da7669e1e.gif For all the latest on Kill It With Fire, join the Discord, or follow the game on Twitter/ Facebook.

Hello spider hunters! Hedge Maze, more like Hedge-AMAZING! It's just you and dozens of spiders, trapped in a maze - what could go wrong?! And just like any good labyrinth it's loaded with secrets and surprises. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/0e619ffd59d966b06bb1005d9534ec6dca0b8ab4.gif To gain access to the shrine at the center you must complete puzzles scattered across the maze. Just keep an eye out for nasty surprises while you're searching for the answers... {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/fa4acc44a0ebb1cea89e740c4536478f819eb521.gif Don't worry too much about getting lost - those hedges look pretty flammable :) {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/18f8ae9fb24e9d4648e3b71c5993e9cff3a88b48.gif The Hedge Maze will be included in the full version of Kill It With Fire, coming later this summer!

Hello spider hunters! I hope everyone has been pleased with the patch! I know some of you were confused about why the spiderlings changed from red to white, but the explanation is very simple: there are more spiders coming and I decided to make a different one red. Hmm...what else is red...? More on that in the near future! Question: What's worse than a spider? Answer: A hairy spider that jumps at your face. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/b933b69aab46b22b42a5f22f15fa39ac6478ddf1.gif That's right - we've got a jumping spider. Not only does it lunge when discovered, but leaps occasionally while running around. It can also bang into objects as it catapults through the air, wreaking further havoc. Nowhere is safe. When facing a foe like this, you're gonna want to pack some serious heat. I'd recommend a fully automatic assault rifle at the very least. Just watch that spread... {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/d4bacbc22311d8af0647618f3bf7ce81c2d4d512.gif For all the latest on Kill It With Fire, join the Discord, or follow the game on Twitter/ Facebook.

Hello spider hunters! I've been working on a little patch for KIWF Ignition - nothing too exciting, just some bug fixes, quality of life improvements, and a couple balance tweaks. Here's the full patch notes:

• User Interface: removed nearly all click and hold buttons, as they were confusing many users.
• Spiderling: changed color from red to white.
• Shotgun: increased starting ammo.
• First Contact: "Burn Stuff" objective items reduced from 50 to 30
• First Contact: fixed a bug where a notification for the Nightstand (in the next level) could be seen after defeating 12 spiders.
• Upgrades: reduced the cost of Protein Shake from 5 to 4; updated its description
• Upgrades: reduced the cost of Cargo Shorts from 2 to 1
• Tracker: battery lasts much longer

Hello spider hunters! First of all, I'd like to give a huge thanks to everyone who has played Kill It With Fire: Ignition. The response has been massive, positive, and honestly a bit overwhelming at times. It's especially exciting to see big names on YouTube playing my itsy-bitsy spider hunting game. If you haven't played it yet, check it out here. While everyone has been busy killing spiders, I've been hard at work creating new types - and building more locations for them to infest. Lockdown got you itching to get out of the house? Well, I've got some good news and some bad news. Here's the good: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/37606839/0fabdccad8a6d2a0edbe890f3b2f70b31920197f.gif I bet you can guess the bad news, but I'll tell you anyway: it's crawling with spiders. This level is much larger than the ones featured in the demo, and more open as well. I can't wait to see everyone play it later this summer!
