Fireworks Mania - An Explosive Simulator system requirements

As published by the developer.

Minimum

OS: Windows 7 (64 bit)
Processor: i5-2550k
Graphics: Nvidia GTX 770
Memory: 4 GB RAM
Storage: 2 GB available space
DirectX: Version 11
Notes: These are the minimum for starting and running the game without mods from the Workshop. It will not be the best experience, but it should be possible. As the game lets you spawn how much you want, its up to you to figure out what your PC can handle where the game is still playable. Mods from the Workshop are made by other players in the community so the quality may vary and sometimes even result in game crash or super low frames per second without any obvious reason.

OS: Windows 11 (64 bit)
Processor: I5-4690k
Graphics: Nvidia GTX 1080
Memory: 16 GB RAM
Storage: 8 GB available space
DirectX: Version 11
Notes: These are recommended specs for an "ok" experience. The game offers the freedom to spawn how much you want, so no matter how good a PC you have you can make it go to 1 digit frames per second if you really want. Mods from the Workshop are made by other players in the community so the quality may vary and sometimes even result in game crash or super low frames per second without any obvious reason.
