It’s time to curl up by the pixelated fireplace


It’s time to curl up by the pixelated fireplace

As the weather gets colder and colder, there really is nothing better than bundling up by the fireplace. The calming glow. The heat. It all just warms your heart, doesn’t it?

But what if you don’t have a fireplace of your own? This is where Ted MartinsFireplace comes to the rescue. Now, you can enjoy a crackling pixelated fire, made just for your screen!

Fireplace works by typing in specific commands. To begin, you must type in “Fireplace.” Then, type “log” to add a log and “match” to light the fire. You can even cook a marshmallow (or hotdog), make a smore, and add old photos into the pixelated flames. From creator, Ted Martins:

Type words to interact with Fireplace or just sit back and enjoy. The logs burn down to ashes in about 30 minutes each.

I really wanted a big-pixelated fireplace to keep in my bedroom and thought other people might like it, too. I hope you enjoy it.
