Oh No! Arson?

In this 2D co-op firefighting arcade game, you and up to 2 friends play as water elementals trying to save a flaming forest. But fire elementals are fanning the flames. You must simultaneously pump and steady the unwieldy fire hose, saving the trees and damaging the enemies. And you must drive the fire truck to dodge the fireballs flying toward you! The physical arcade will make use of 3 inputs: the tyre, the hose, and the pump. They are meant to be played by one player each, but it is playable with only 2 people. The pump increases the range of the hose, while the hose aims. The hose sprays water in a line that extinguishes burning trees and fire elementals. The players move as a unit in the fire truck. It moves left or right as the tyre is spun forward or backwards. If fire hits the truck 5 times, the players lose. Otherwise, they win after ~2 minutes of playtime. They get points for extinguishing fires and fire elementals, and they lose points for letting trees die. Their score can appear on the scoreboard in the game itself.

Kvitter

Become a bird for a day by putting on feathers and a bird tail and set out into the world of the bird dating universe! Use your body to browse through bird profiles, get a match, and woo your date by dancing to the rhythm of the beat! Perhaps a lumberjack, bodybuilder, or fancy pigeon is the match for you? The more successful dates you go on the higher score you obtain. It’s about quantity, not quality, okay? Compete with your friends, family, or strangers to try to get the highest score and win a place on the high score board.
