It took me forever to set up my show and it still wasn't synced properly but that's ok. I love, love, love fireworks and this program is great. Any fan of fireworks will love this. Once you get the hang of it, it's easy to work with. Though, there could be some improvements like; a snap to feature on the boat so you can evenly place your fireworks, more areas/scenery to play with, more sets of fireworks and an option to get rid of the music track that loops while setting up your show (without muting your imported track and/or going back to main menu to up the volume to get it back). Overall, I enjoy this and I can see myself putting tons of hours into this, just for the pure enjoyment watching the entire finished firework show that I created.

Love it hands down it takes a few minutes to get the hang of it but that’s like anything new.
But I do have to say this game needs work it’s a bit of a bug fest at the moment think Starship Troopers although it is still very playable.
But it is heading in the right direction, though bugs make it interesting to say the least.
"Hail to the king" and "Come get some" to say the most, Get it on sale if you can but if not get it anyway.
When you live in a country with out fireworks this is the next best thing, and it gets the creative juices flowing.
I am even thinking of a NYE display For our Deckchair cinema, it wont be flash but with “Europe-the final count down” you cant really go wrong or can you only time will tell.

This game is great for those who wish to display a fireworks along with music. Import music and create a show. I wish they had more places but I'm sure some dlc's might happen for that.

It's exactly what it says. If you just want to toy around with Fireworks and timing / music, its a nice time waster. If you haven't already guessed, its not a "game" like that old launch PS2 title. It's a building sim.

Great game reminds me of Fireworks Construction Kit by BorderBund in the 80's for Amiga 500 ....this is the first game like that game to be made in years. If you like fireworks, and wanted to create your own fireworks show, this game is a must buy.

I really enjoyed this, i Do recommend playing this or checking it out if you really do love fireworks because i had a Blast messing around and it passes the time if you get bored or have nothing else to do, But i do feel limited and wish there could be more stuff to it instead of having a rinse and repeat feeling, But i still enjoyed it when the Fireworks go off.

This is a great simulator, and im not an overall fan of simulator type "games".
Anyone with even the slightest interest/buzz of fireworks or pyrotechnics shows (IE:- Rock band setups etc) will find this great, its very entertaining.

Can upload your own music tracks too to use.

For the price its ace.

Overall great game if you WANT to create your own firework simulation in sync with music.


Minor issues that could be fixed/improved:

There should be mouse wheel scrolling in sequence editor,
The firework when selected in placement should indicate which one you have selected,
When playing the simulation you should be allowed to skip to a section you want to see,
When creating a firework, it should allow you to clear the firework placed instead of clearing the whole rack,

If the above were fixed it would be even better than it already is. The above are just minor problems that I noticed while playing. Click here to see my video:

Note: if thinking about using the ingame recorder, dont. Use Fraps instead since it doesnt cause the game to lag as much.

I love the idea of a Firework Simulator, but there's too much wrong with this game.

After some hours of playing i've seen way too many bugs till even freezing my system a few times.

The worst is the saving system, one moment it works fine and the next all you saved is gone.... whaagh...

And why save everything inside the Windows Registry... totally insane !!!

I hope all can be fixed in time, but for the moment this poor designed game is a no-go.

I don't normally write reviews on Steam games, but this game, really deserves it.

Wow, what can I say? Fireworks Simulator is brand new into the market released only two days ago and come to think about it I'm sure your'e all thinking "well here's ANOTHER simulator game..."
But let me stop you there, Fireworks Simulator is unlike anything I have ever played on Steam before and in a good way.

Welcome to this crazy, psychedelic world of bright lights and explosions.
I booted this up to try it and found myself 2 hours later in awe of a pretty awesome firework show I had built from scratch to music from my computer I had previously imported.

If you buy this game be prepared to have your imagination captured, skills put to the test and most importantly have a lot of fun regardless of your age.
I can assure you this is way more than placing pretty lights and watching them go bang.
Unlike other "flop" simulator games I think this might just become a hit and the developers deserve every credit for it.

The question is, can you top the London New Year Fireworks? You can certainly try!!

The save issue has been fixed!
Enjoy this great simulation game and let's start create a beautiful Fireworks!!

I really like this simulator game, it's fun, but currently the save system in the game is bugged!
You might lost your progress just like how I lost my 5 hours progress.

I hope they get it fixed soon, until then play at your own risk.


Anyway, here's my piece

It's a great game (and majestic at that), but the game just feels like it's missing something...

Waste of money, The whole consept and how its set up makes it Incredibly hard to grasp. The menus are poorly designed, the User interface is confusing and quite frankly look like they were designed in 5 minutes by a 13 year old on his first computing project. I really looked forward to this game but was a total let down. TOTAL WASTE OF MY MONEY!

i like this game its a good bit of fun,
although i think we need bigger fireworks !! and longer display time.

and the big ones you always have a very long delay 2 seconds plus between the effect and the the bang. because there always firther away.

But all in all this is great fun and its different !!
