I'm not opposed to procedurally generated levels, often even love them, but this specific game looks like it would have really benefitted from handmade levels.

[Estorium]

This looked and sounded good until I heard roguelike and procedurally generated. It seems like indie devs are starting to fall back on this way too often lately, and more and more it seems that they are doing so as to avoid having to craft actual levels and a proper progression system.

I really love the art style in this game. I was hoping for a more linear gameplay as I'm getting kind of burned out (pun intended) on rougelites. Still, it's beautiful and definitely want to add it to my collection. A physical release would be awesome 😁👍

[SiobhanR]

Perfect timing to watch on my lunch break 👌 As always an awesome review

[mariovj]

The fire animation is mesmerizing, I really like it, maybe on a sale I can get this one, you maybe need to apply the "Baldo treatment" here

[detritivre]

I had an idea for a first-person survival horror roguelike game where you had to escape from procedurally generated burning building s. It was called "Don't Be Burned Alive!"

[Gambit]

This looks like the lovechild of Demon Turf and Mighty Switch Force 2...will probably pick this up on sale ✌️

[rjreeder]

Roguelikes makes up a large percentage of my switch library and I've been considering this game, the only thing really holding me back is being timed.

[chasonlapointe]

Graphics look good and the gameplay seems fun, if a physical release comes out down the line I will definitely pick it up.

[edwardbrennan]

But of a bummer seeing this score. I was really looking forward to this as I LOVE the art direction of it. Hopefully it will pop up in an all patched up video and I can take another look.

So many uploads these have been some good days

[joshwhite]

If this didn't have a timer I would have bought it. I don't like feeling rushed in a game.

[Dragonlagan]

This sounded so good. There are so little fire fighter games. Shame it ended up the way it has

[SingularMeatball]

This is the most creative thing I've seen in a while

[theth]

That’s how firefighting works chief….. random building layouts

[christopherbennett]

Roscoe McQueen is the OG fire fighter game

[Sabre_Wulf]

Great review, been watching this one as I loved 'the firemen' on snes. There is something just stopping me purchase this one.. I don't know what it is. Even purchased 'flame over' on ps4 which I loved, but I think I'm gonna wait for a sale for this game.

[zeroXshinobi]

I’m curious, is it easier for devs to make procedural based levels? This is a pass for me sadly. It seems indie nowadays means rogue like, procedurally generated, and Metroidvania.

[Ser-Smiley]

Hmm. I love the visuals. Looks great. But that's about it. But ill keep a lookout for it. Randomness can be good. But not when its too random.
