This is SO DANG CUTE!!! The art is adorable and I love zooming through outer space feeding hungry bunnies 💜 The levels are challenging but approachable, and the sound effects perfectly match the genre!! Incredible work!!

Thanks Ceph! Planes are color coded, as you probably noticed, but also in the top-left corner of the UI there is a number of arrows that indicate how fast the plane goes :)
And for our differently-sighted friends, who might struggle to differentiate color, each random flight code starts with a prefix unique to its color - BL for blue, RD for red, and YW for yellow!
Thanks so much for playing my game! I should have had a more intuitive guide to the user interface, it’s tripped a few people up.
And lastly, no, there isn’t a way to edit the flight paths once set. That’s part of the puzzle :)
Thank you so much for the kind words!! 💜
Yep, OOPS Airlines is also on the BBS - unfortunately, due to a strange bug in the BBS web player’s code, the game isn’t playable on web there (but doing load #oopsairlines
from your PICO-8 terminal or downloading through Splore work fine!)
And yes! I’ve done some tinkering in Picotron and created some tools for folks to use, but haven’t yet created a game. I’m waiting for a little more maturity that we’ll get soon, like HTML exports and binary exports!
Really neat and tricky game! I enjoy games like this, maybe I’m a masochist, but it’s always very satisfying to complete a level! I’d recommend adding a pointer to the edge of the screen that points towards the goal of each level and maybe make the camera track a bit in front of the player so you can see where you’re going <3
More verbs would definitely give more playability, great thought! Other things I had on my wishlist were:
- optional route incentives, like point multipliers that spawn around the map occassionally
- different levels with different airport positions / multiple airports
- achievements for reaching certain thresholds
- differently sized aircraft in addition to different speeds
- limited node economy to restrict plane paths
- and more :D
Maybe I’ll revisit the game in the future and build it out a bit more! Thanks so much for playing!
