I had a lot of fun playing this game!
My high score is 34 on hard mode. This game balances risk and reward very well. The urge to go fast versus the danger of popping the balloon and missing the target is a great combo. Had me sweating.
Well play for your high score! You are officially better than me 😁And thank you for your feedback, I'm glad you liked the game ^^
Really fun game! I love the mechanic of the balloons: adds an element of risk to every person/dog you have to rescue, since you can easily mess up and make things worse for yourself if you barge in from the wrong angle. Overall, great work!
The controls are so difficult!!! I'm addicted, though. My highest score so far is 11. The sprites are really nice!
That game is sooo hard xD, I barely managed to save 10 people ahah. It is very fun, it is beautiful and I love the music, so intense !
The color palette reminds me of Dome Keeper and it's really classy.
Unfortunately for me, the game lags enormously, making it difficult to save the dogs :/.
If you could try and rate my game, I'd be grateful!
Did you experience the lags in the browser version ? did you try the download build ?
I'll have a look at your game ;)
It was the browser version! Didn't see that you have add a downloadable content, my bad :)
Very challenging but i NEED to save those dogs ! I enjoyed the physic of the game, good job !
The game has a really fun concept and good art that I enjoyed. While I found it a bit challenging, I think it could be even more enjoyable with a few tweaks. For example: removing boundaries and allowing the rocket to wrap around the screen (like in some versions of Snake). or rewarding players with extra lives (along with upgrades). Overall, it’s a great game!
Thanks for this feedback! I take good note of your suggestions, they will probably find their place in a post-Jam update ;)
The concept is interesting and the overall look of the game is great ! But I think the game is a bit too hard for me
Your game looks and feels great. i couldn't stop playing until i beat your score. I loved when i realized i could spin in place and use the drones to catch the folks more easily
Visually amazing 😀
Loved the effect of the rockets jets and the flash of lightening on the screen
I will be honest didnt know what I was doing at first and avoided the ballons at first 😅So Maybe a clearer way to point that out would go along way
Was a blast to play 🚀
Really cool game and I could even see more being added to make it a longer play time. Super cool concepts and I love the thin line between saving them and hurting them if you pop the people and dog's balloon.
What kind of additional content would you see ? ^^ Personnally I thought of other vehicles like a helicopter maybe :)
You could expand on the world a little bit if you wanted. Perhaps adding other forms of transportation like you mentioned for people to be saved from. Generally I think the game in this state is complete but you could add more levels if you wanted to make the map bigger or add more obstacles etc.
Looks amazing, feels amazing, fun concept, took a bit to get used to controls and even then was very hard but still fun:)
i really like your art in this game the ship and ballons are very clean and the particle effects work really well to build atmosphere, the lava looks intimidating. the ship controls were interesting, i found them very difficult (i suck at this game my high score on easy was 4 lol) but still fun to try and master. it took me a bit of time to figure out the game loop exactly so maybe just a how to play screen in the menu with a couple pictures could help with that. overall i though this was a really cool game with a high skill ceiling and some awesome art, nice work!
Thank you very much for this detailled feedback! You're right, a tutorial would have help a lot ^^'
It was a fun and good looking game. controls were a bit hard but it was fun
Once I got the hang of the controls, I enjoyed the game! Great work, and I'm envious of your ice cream intake!
The movement style that you chose to use is definitely adding a challenge tot the game!
I really enjoyed it.
Very fun to get the hang of the movement and the power ups were a nice suprise and added more depth to the gameplay. (really hard tho lol)
This game is awesome, very fun to play and the graphics are pretty good, only suggestion maybe have the ship and people be separate health bars.
Thank you very much ^^ I take note of your suggestion for a post jam update ;)
Very cool 👍 I have no criticism for this
