Awesome gameplay. The game could use some variety, maybe levels with increasing difficulty, but core gameplay is very funny. Graphics make me totally forgot it is 64x64, sound is somewhat annoying but well, match the style.
At first i've tried to destroy factories, and on high speed it wasn't evident that it's impossible. Sadly right now high speed is useless - I think some dangers on the field could force a player don't always fly at minimal speed.
Quick question: can you shoot down the red turrets? I tried for multiple rounds and just couldn't, so either I'm bad or I'm not supposed to. Otherwise the game was fun after I realized I can go slower. It would really be nice to start with that speed, but it was a really great game.
Fly around and bomb things; an overhead plane game. Neatly done; this was actually quite good fun, bombing their tanks, and it was nice to see (realistically) that a bomb which lands near a tank swallows up that tank in the ensuing explosion. The description explicitly states that slowing your plane down is a good idea, and it is not wrong about that; I can't help think that it would be easier to just start the plane at minimum speed rather than telling people to do that in the description. Graphics are a bit blocky and basic; some antialiasing would help here, I think. But the game is smoothly done, and fun to play, and that's all good with me!
I'm a bad teammate, since I was destroying the green tanks, instead of the red ones, then I started destroying the red ones and I thought, "Perhaps I don't have a team" ahahah, then I read the description. It's a neat game well done. If you have the time play my entry, https://itch.io/jam/lowrezjam-2018/rate/293637 hope you like, even tho it's really simple.
Cheers
I didn't initially understand that you can slow down the airplane by pressing the down arrow, but after that I managed to hit some tanks
