You are a fireman trapped at the top of a burning skyscraper. You have only your axe and some water.

Get to the exit, taking as many helpless bystanders with you as possible. The fire is already spreading...

Towering Inferno is a roguelike firefighting game where water and fire interact in interesting ways. You can never extinguish the flames, but maybe you can control them, and escape the building.

It was written in C++ with libtcod. You can find me on twitter @tenpn, and the devlog for this game is online at http://tenpn.tumblr.com .

To run, you'll need to install the Visual C++ runtime: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=5555

EDIT:

Man! A typo on the GUI suggests that you should use the A key to activate it, but it's actually the X key.
