Heres a trailer:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hpnefrZxKrQ
(can we embed youtube vids directly in topics? Is there some sort of obscure tag for it??)

Get the game in there:
http://www.frankiesmileshow.com/station37/

Assorted Screenshots:

(the screenshots are actually a little bit old now that I think about it)

Game was made mostly at the Toronto Game Jam, by me and the Monster King, with music by Chef Boyardee.
Nice lads from the Poppenkast, Chef and our friend Lurdiak did some serious testing.

There was quite a bit of polish added to the game since the TOjam, so if you played it back then, be sure to give it another try!

Instructions:
The arrow keys move your firefighter.
The 'A' key makes you jump.
Holding the 'S' key uses the fire extinguisher. Hold UP or DOWN while shooting to aim the stream. You can find items to replenish your extinguisher reserve.
The 'D' key uses the fire axe. Use it on doors and debris to clear out a path.
The DOWN arrow key picks up civillians. Bring them to the fire chief or to the firetruck outside to rescue them.

Absolutely awesome game. I got stuck at the boss, but the game surprised me. A lot. Play it, and nobody spoil anything in this thread.

yes he's really cooked up some trouble in this thread. if he can't stand the heat of station 37 he should get out of the kitchen. he'll have to eat his words later, that's for sure.

I enjoyed this one a lot at TOJam, sadly though no windows machine these days to play it.

Exactly what Ashkin said. How do you beat the boss? I'm really interested to see how the game progresses from this point on.

Hi Frankie,

I watched the trailer and then downloaded and tried your game.

Trailer looks nice and game works pretty well, a few suggestions if that's okay.

-Can you perhaps make space bar the jump key? I'm used to it and it took me a while to work out A was the jump key.

-When you press the s key a single time, maybe make the fire extinguisher put out foam for x seconds perhaps? I single keypressed it a few times and the extinguisher would appear but no foam would come out. I found later that if you keep the S key down the foam comes out.

-When I selected options on menu screens, pressing the enter key to confirm my selection didn't seem to work. I could arrow up and down through the menu selection but not click enter? tried mouse click, didn't work so I thought it was enter key.

The graphics look quite nice, rescuing the person worked well, hp loss when fire hit works well, looks like a nice game.

If you clear up these above or explain them to me, I'll edit the post and remove them to show they were fixed. Smiley

Cheers,

John Urquhart

Hehe, after clearing the first building, I can kind of see why toilet master was a bit annoyed.  Left me hungry for more!  Great concept and mashup of games though Wink

The checkpoint before the boss effin' sucks. There's a nice, logical place for a checkpoint that isn't used. Wtf?

There were several missed opportunities for checkpoints that made it way harder than it needed to be Sad
