Fulfill your duties as a fire extinguisher and put out the ever spreading fires threatening your surprisingly flammable room.

Click in a direction to put out fires and push yourself in the opposite direction. Be careful not to bump into other fires or flammable objects!

The orange bar at the bottom right is how overheated you are, if it fills up you will explode and die. Try to survive for as long as possible.

Hold R to restart the game at any time.

NOTE: I recommend downloading if possible as lighting is incorrect in the Web version, but it seems to work otherwise. OSX and Linux builds are untested, please let me know if they are broken.

Awesome Christmas-Themed game! Love the art style and it was fun to spin around in circles and fly out of control!

Actually laughed out loud at this game. Really enjoyed it. Got to 76 seconds with my best attempt. Really like the art style

loved the graphical style; sometimes I got stuck on the left edge of the screen, but besides that it was gr8 fun

My high Score is 61 seconds.
When you have a slight flame on you, you know you are done spreading fire all over the place.

The best game I've seen on this LD yet. This was a lot of fun and it has a lot of replayability value too!

I don't really like these sort of games, but this was actually fun. Nice game.

This was a really fun game! Once the fire spread to the whole room, the sound got a little loud, but overall the sound was good, and was a very cute game! Nice job!

Looks and feels great! I got 90 seconds on my best.

HOW DO I EXTINGUISH MYSELF! AGHHH

Really cool game! Had to read about the mechanics first, got stuck in a corner.
That seemed to be a very good strategy though :)

Short but fun :) I really enjoyed it.

Wow lol this is a cool idea :D reminded me of the extinguisher scene in WALL-E. It seems like a very unsafe fireplace... but the game was a lot of fun.

LOL wish I could spray the floor and roll around in it, I just can't get pass that 1 minute mark!

I really liked that the extinguisher has eyeballs for some wierd reason. Love the artwork and audio.

Fun game, fits the theme well

Really cool idea. Would love to see it expanded upon. The music and art worked together really well and the push and pull of the movement/spray mechanic is clever. Awesome stuff.

I could do with a little more feedback to let me know I'm extinguishing the flames (sometimes it just felt like it wasn't working), and one time I got myself stuck against the wall and couldn't get out. Other than that, really nice concept. I like the way you have to strategically plan your movement and extinguishing in tandem. That's a cool mechanic.

Hehe! That was fun, love the big eyed extinguisher !

lololol

I really like the idea, like a lot :) Nice art too.

alexfoo16 Dec 2016, 16:06

Nice little action game for the theme. Like that u can only move by spraying, which you have to control not to run into the flames.

Nice and clear mechanics. Good idea and sweet 3d assets.
Neat Christmas tree, btw -)
Well done, dude!

Fun game! I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 37 games, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/8ZKn12Y_qVg

Loved the graphics, the extinguisher guy looks a lot like something found in a classic Rareware game. I kept getting stuck in corners and edges for some reason, maybe you could make right mouse button a special spin attack to bounce out.
