Really like the game - it was a bit hard to hit the ground turrets, but fun. Maybe a minimap might be a nice addition, or pointers on the edge of the screen that show you where the enemies are? Finding them was half the battle. Also, I would suggest reducing their trigger-radius - i.e. the distance that you are from them before they attack - as I found that I was being destroyed when I couldn't even see them! Finally, I would put the attacks as keys on the keyboard as you don't need them on the mouse, seeing as the mouse position does not affect the direction of attack.
you can also use ctrl to fire and alt to drop a bomb it should be shift but i forgot to change it
Creative use of theme and nicely presented wide environment. I'm glad you didn't go for spinning camera :D The plane is a bit hard to control when it comes to aiming in the right direction and the game was pretty short. I really liked out of bounds warning, for some reason it caught my eyes and felt very professional.
cant believe how polished this game is, it controls great!
This was awesome to play and the most original use of the theme I’ve seen yet. You packed a ton of content in here with a great tutorial and endless mode. Very impressive or 48 hours!
The game is polished and comes with a tutorial and endless mode, also love the art but man I suck at hitting enemies hahahaha
The game was good and the concept was great. The turrets bullets went a bit too fast, though. It was really hard to avoid them, and I kept dying with no way to beat them. Apart from that, however, it was excellent.
Wait till they run out of ammo and have to reload then bomb them
That was great, very well done. The tutorial could have used some speeding up, got bored and went straight to the main game after 30 seconds or so. But the game itself was really well done, very smooth
Stellar game. I love the look and feel of the game and your maps are brilliant. It's tough due to how accurate the enemies are, but it's a rewarding feeling to get through it. Favorite game I've played in this jam yet, well done!
Loved it, really fun! Movement is super smooth and nice, everything is very visually pleasing!
:)
This is very polished for a jam game. Great job !
Thank you much appreciated :)
One of the best visuals in this whole jam and super early submission.
It just goes by when you make the page lol i was still working on it up until just before the deadline ;)
Very nice implementation of the plane pack! Also a very creative use of the theme! Would never have thought of that.
My two points of criticism that are just tiny details are:
1. Bombs should not fall faster than the plane (they are dropped not launched!)
2. The shadows for the bullets are much lower than the plane itself
Overall, great game. Nice work!
Those little planes! Awesome concept btw
Glad you liked it :)
The turning feels really smooth, but when fighting the first plane I felt there just a bit to little time to turn and aim correctly (which in it self made for nice frantic tries :D )
Yup its ment to be quick to restart a mission that way you can get better at the controls
This was really fun and quite well polished.
Concept is dope, man Great controls
I love the game and the music. Good job. Proper implementation of theme as well.
