- Patch #2.5 - Added Simplified Physics Performance Setting - 16 September 2026
Hi all! I see there's still some issues with performance. I've just released an update to try and address that! - Added an option to turn on simplified physics in the Settings menu. This should improve performance in Phase 3. I'm still testing it more, hence it's not on by default. - Fixed a bug with upgrade nodes staying red if double-clicked when unaffordable.

V1.03 - Performance improvements so Phase 3 rounds lag and stutter a lot less
- Patch #2 - Updated Phase 3 and Progression Update - 3 September 2026
Hi all!I've just pushed Update #2!My goal with My Fire Is Bigger Than Yours was always to make a short, escalating experience built around finding multipliers, creating ridiculous chain reactions, and watching the numbers keep going up. Based on your feedback and watching people play, there were a few things getting in the way of that - especially in Phase 3.Phase 3 has been reworked 🛠️Phase 3 should now feel much more like its own phase. You have space to expand your setup as you progress, much like the earlier phases. No more spending the entire phase inside a gigantic fire and watching everything burn up... unless that's what you're into.Phase 3 now starts from scratch, just like Phase 2. No more guessing which spawners will survive the transition. Don't worry, the Moon's got your back :)Your available space expands as the phase progresses, giving you room to actually build setups a…
- Cultist Improvement - 31 August 2026
- Cultists now pick up fuels more reliably when placed next to a spawner, their multiplier to kick in even when things get lit up like crazy
- Patch #1 - Getting you Unstuck! - 31 August 2026
Hi everyone! I’ve just released an update addressing several Phase 3 progression and visibility issues:Fire Resistance is now a standard starter upgrade in Phase 3, allowing you to protect your Moon spawners regardless of which prestige nodes you selected.Added a new cursor with a clearly visible centre. Its size can now be adjusted using the scroll wheel for more precise aiming.Objects inside large fires now appear as silhouettes, allowing you to see and speed up the mechanic cultists hidden behind the flames.Spawner and Cultist placement can now be cancelled if there isn’t enough room, preventing a placement softlock.The leaderboard should now correctly record your highest fire level during post-win rounds.This is the first step toward improving the end of Phase 3. A larger rebalance is coming next, focused on creating more room to build and keeping your multipliers effective as the f…
- Improving the game - 31 August 2026
Hi everyone!Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. I am reading all the feedback coming in. I want to make this game the best version of itself while staying close to the vision: grow a fire until it beats the sun.I am actively working on it, and I have two patches planned.Update 1 - Getting you unstuck in Phase 3Fire-resistant spawners become a normal Phase 3 upgrade, so your spawners on the moon cannot burn you into a dead end. Right now if you miss a prestige purchase they're goneCursor fix: the ring stays thin, you can see where the center is, and you can resize the cursor at any time (the upgrade becomes "max cursor size")See silhouettes of objects "inside" the fireBug fixes: the leaderboard not recording your best fire level, and the placement softlock in Phase 3Update 2 - Phase 3 and camera reworkA lot of feedback is about the fire growing over the upgrades you bou…
