We are developing a 2-D game similar to a cross of Whack-A-Mole and Missile Command. The game is based on when the old Foothill Apartments were burned down in order to build the new Foothill Apartments. However, in this game, you don’t want the building to burn. Playing as the Claremont Fire Department, only you can save the apartments.

This is a one player game. The player will have control over two sources of water which will be used to put out the fires. Points are obtained by putting out fires, and the game ends when the building's health bar reaches zero, thus causing the apartments to burn down. The difficulty increases over time, as fires appear and spread more rapidly. The ultimate goal is to hold out against the fire as long as possible, and accumulate the highest score.
