Fire is the third Powder Game element. It imitates real-life fire, but is different in many ways - it doesn't create smoke, and burning isn't very realistic. It can be used to burn and blow up various elements.
Properties[]
- Fire acts like a gas due to its slow upward rising and its ability to defy gravity.
- Fire disappears within a few frames of creation.
- A single pixel of fire makes a very slight upward wind. With larger amounts of fire, this wind becomes more apparent and can knock over powders and even counteract gravity.
- Fire also slightly increases the air pressure. In an isolated (surrounded by block) area, a constantly burning flame can greatly increase the area's air pressure and decrease the relative air pressure of other rooms.
- Fire melts ice, such can be observed in even too small amounts to cause a significant wind.
- Fire burns up wood and it burns for quite a long time. Also the wood changes into powder which again might burn.
- Fire kills fighters and players, and burns boxes and powder balls.
- Flaming elements will stop burning if submerged in water or saltwater. However, it may not be too effective, as the wind from the fire can blow the water away.
Usages[]
- Being highly unstable, fire has few uses other than simply igniting other elements or killing players and fighters.
- Fire can be useful in anti-gravity chambers for producing a steady stream of wind.
- Fire can be used in unstable pixel art as a light-red colour.
