Blaze Patrol

Welcome, recruit! Glad you've decided to volunteer for our forest firefighting outpost! Its a tough job - there are always fires on our humble island but I'm sure you'll do just fine!

---

Game

Fly our basic firefighting helicopter to put out the fires spreading across the maps. Careful though, you only have a limited supply of water in your tanks, so you'll have to spend some time on each mission refilling those tanks using whatever water sources you have available (lakes, oceans, etc).

Controls

WASD - Fly your helicopter (arcade style controls)
Space/LMB - Drop water on fires
Shift/RMB - Refill water (when over a body of water)

How to play

From the HQ screen, click the mission building on the left to bring up the mission planner. Select one of the missions and read the description for more information on the level. Click start mission!

Fly around using WASD to the fires (indicated by the white arrows), and drop water on them using Space. When your water tank is empty, fly over some water and press Shift to refill your tank. Repeat!
