The art and vibes are so beautiful! I especially love the background art -- gorgeous colors and brushstrokes!
It was a little hard to tell what was supposed to happen in the game; it felt like I was pushing the plane along for a long time without much indication of if I was making progress towards a certain goal or not, but it was really nice to be enjoy the art and sounds.
I love the music and atmosphere. It seemed like the plane did the same things whether I interacted or not so maybe I'm doing it wrong! beautiful vibe tho
Awesome! Very cute game. The music is mesmerizing. Beautiful picture. You're just meddling. It's a pity that while I was flying the music ended (
Enjoyment: 2/5. It was fun at the start but it drags a lot near the end. Sorry.
Creativity: 3/5. Controlling the airplane with the wind is kind of simple. I remember playing a game as a child where it was the same thing, just with boats instead.
Presentation: 5/5. The icons of the airplane and obstacles is alright, but everything else is just breathtaking. Prettiest game i've reviewed so far.
10/10, I LOVE the art style, the music, the atmosphere and the emotion, it’s so short and simple but a really well-made game! I could really see this evolve into even more.
A very pleasant game. I thought the idea of controlling the wind and how it was implemented was really satisfying. What the game truly lacks now is some depth around that mechanic. I'm glad the plane can't break in some way, it ties to the chill vibe the game is going for, but something to make it more thoughtful than just shaking the mouse to the right only because it is satysfying would be great if you decide to work more on the game after the jam! Otherwise the presentation is nice, I especially like that background scrolling throughout the whole game, and I appreciate the addition of a bit of story telling at the end. And the sound design and music were simply pleasant and fitting. Lovely!
Props to the team!
Very vibey, however missing meaningful obstacles
I love that there are random anvils being dropped from the sky. I also think it would be funny if the letter just said, "a note in the wind" and that the lady was crying because she got a paper cut.
Firstly, I loved the story telling, and the mechanics were very easy to pick once I had a play around. Obviously the visuals are beautiful! I feel like the design was begging for some power-ups, but it's a game jam so I understand time is limited..
Beautiful graphics and music!! Love the tone and the concept is pretty cool! Great work guys :>
好强啊，音乐、画面和机制结合的很好，玩起来很放松、美好
Really entered a flow state with this one, the visuals, the music, the ending, very nice
gorgeous! gameplay was relaxing and the visuals and music added a ton of charm to the game. ending was adorable, and I really like the particles/lines used to indicate the wind gusts- really gives it a watercolory hand-crafted feel
Fantastic visuals! The controls take a while to get used to tho, but once done, it feels really fluid.
pretty and relaxing, I think it might be cool if you could fly in different directions, so you have to swipe differently. Also when the plane reaches the left of the screen, it can become harder to swipe.
nice job!
beautiful experience, thank you for making this.
love that i was given enough time and room to build relationship with the plane, especially knowing (and not knowing) it's carrying something and flying somewhere. and even though never for a moment i wanted to let it go, it felt very nice doing so.
please make more <3
What a great concept! Controls felt a little janky but when I did get them to work it feels super fluid.
If you wanted to come back to this later (which I think you should), a revamped control scheme that adds more leniency would serve the nice chill atmosphere
Speaking of atmosphere... God damn, this is a beautiful piece. Visually and sonically you've managed to strike a balance of cohesion, expression and polish that just immediately creates nice vibes.
gorgeous piece of art!
sweet art and enjoyeble relaxing gaming.
i like it!!
Super beautiful game! Loved the colors and the music this came out fantastic. Took me a min to get controls but was a really cool experience!
