Baby Bounce Rescue

Baby Bounce Rescue is a fast‑paced arcade rescue game where timing, reflexes, and nerves of steel decide whether each tiny life makes it safely to the ambulance. A burning building looms on the left, an ambulance waits on the right, and your two‑person firefighter team must catch falling babies and bounce them across three rescue zones to safety. A baby drops from one of the burning windows — you must position your firefighter stretcher team in the correct zone to catch the fall. Each successful catch launches the baby in a smooth physics‑driven arc toward the next zone. Three perfect bounces deliver the baby safely into the ambulance. Miss a catch, and… well… the splat counter goes up. Lose all lives and it’s game over. 🔥 Features Three rescue zones: building-side, mid-screen, and ambulance-side Physics-based bounce arcs for satisfying, predictable skill mastery Dynamic fire animation with flickering flame tongues and glowing windows Increasing difficulty: faster throws, shorter intervals, and double-baby tosses at higher levels Joystick support for generic controllers (SDL_Joystick API) Crisp resolution-independent text thanks to dynamic font oversampling High score system stored in the OS’s proper per-user data directory Fullscreen support with F11 Simple, responsive controls: Arrow keys or 1/2/3 to move between zones Mouse click to select a zone Controller stick or D-pad 🚑 Challenge Progression As levels increase, babies fall faster, spawn intervals shrink, and double-throws become more frequent — forcing rapid zone switching and perfect timing. Only the most skilled rescuers will climb the high-score board. 🏆 High Scores Your top rescues are saved automatically.
