The 3d models look great! My guy wouldn't fly up?  Not sure what I was doing wrong haha.  I pushed space and he would spray the ground but not go up.  I will try again later!  Still, congrats on submitting a cool 3d game to the jam! Please check out mine if you haven't :D

Fun overall idea and solid presentation, though actually putting out the fires seems to work at random? Not sure whether it's a bug or oddly specific angles required, either way could use a bit more consistency, then I think you could have a pretty fun little arcade game on your hands!

Submitted

It's very well made solid idea. Great work!

Best I could do was 3 fires, I couldn't really aim (I may just be bad at games). But the idea was really fun!

Neat idea! I included it in my GMTK Game Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Ooooh, Jupi! Thank you for your tireless work for the little jammers! :)

Goofy music that suited the mood, a great art style for the models, and I found the gameplay to be funny and challenging. I absolutely stink at navigating and figuring out where to position myself to spray the window correctly, and I hit so many pianos along the way (who throws their piano out a window... to save it from a fire..? like, d'ya think gravity will spare it..?) :P

Good work, neat game!

Thanks alot! About the Pianos: We dont know either, but we loved the Trope. :)

I found it fairly challenging, maybe chould put out only 2 fires. The overall idea is fun and I'd love to see the game being extended

Developer

Sorry for it being so tough! Balancing was super tough for us haha!

Submitted

I experienced balancing hard as well! Even if there is enough time it's difficult, but the idea is cool and I had a good time. Cheers!

Love it, the whole idea of propelling yourself up with a hose is just hilarious! The environment and character are well designed, and the game play is very challenging. Great work guys!

Developer

Thanks Sam! I'm so glad you enjoyed it. The artwork is very awesome looking, I agree! We appreciate you trying out our game!

i was playing this in browser, and i cannot get up or down, which is a shame, cause otherwise it seems like it would be a pretty nice game

Developer

Browser has a known problem, might be worth trying the build if you can!

Blasted Pianos!!! Great work guys haha, I think it was a lot of fun. One thought I had while playing is you could streamline the mechanics by having it so you put out fires with your water jet. Just an idea of course. The keyboard input was a bit hard for me but the gamepad felt nice. Overall I had fun! Good work :)

Developer(+1)

Hahaha! Thanks for playing! We did think about doing that but it was pretty tough to implement with the short timeframe. Glad you enjoyed it otherwise!

Submitted

Makes sense! Time is always a limitation on those jams :p

I love the low poly art style! Really fun idea, took me a bit to get used to the controls, but after that it was fun! good work!

Developer

Thanks, Ivan!

this game has a very appealing visual presentation, and the music is very funky. other than that, this game is frustrating to figure out and understand, I lose within 30 seconds because I cant move up or down. Im pretty sure its part of the game that you cant aim the hose, but I cant seem to figure out how to play. 

Developer

Thanks for playing our game in the first place! Sorry to hear you had a bad time. If you want to try again, hold spacebar to propel yourself upwards. Also, I think the browser version is a bit broken.
