Station 37, a small game about saving people as a firefighter

A fun, and rather original little game about a firefighter saving people with axe and fire extinguisher.

I've been playing this pretty much since I got up. It's fun, the first level drags on a bit, but after a while the mechanics get interesting (although I did find it a little frustrating at times). I did reach the end quicker than I thought I would, which kinda disappointed me. But I thought the game was an experience worth sharing.
By the way, has anyone figured out how to save that sixth civilian in the hotel? I'd also like to know how you get that last ??? achievement... it's puzzling.

That was certainly... unique. I died a lot near the end, but it was fun. As for the sixth civilian, I didn't have any trouble with that. Grabbing him basically makes the rest of the level Hard Mode though.

"Compatibility mode", dude. If he tries running it under "capatability mode" some terrible thing involving elder gods will probably happen.

I was like, ha, this looks like a pretty dumb and boring game. I was so wrong. Gentlemen, I have discovered true fun.

Just remember, even if the sixth one gets lit up, you can still rescue him. Happened to me.

I think I'm an alright guy. I just wanna live until I gotta die. I know I'm not perfect, but God knows I try.

I tried to trick the game by skipping a victim so I could start my way back quicker, but it didn't work. :( At least I was able to beat it.

The game could have been really nice if they'd made it a "full version" whether they kept the normal route or the spoilers. Not that it wasn't good as it was.
