The devs at laughing Jackal call this a ‘pyroguelike’ for which they should probably receive some form of clever nomenclature award. You play intrepid firefighter Blaze carruthers (just look at those smokin’ puns), battling through flaming buildings with a hose and extinguisher to save increasingly toasty civilians trapped inside. the fire spreads according to the materials in each room, so it’ll race along carpeted sections and will resist your hose if its source is electrical. If you’re into twin-stick grinding and/or John travolta (ahem) classic ladder 49, keep an eye out for this one come 2015.
