I liked it, its was very interesting to play.. With more time you could make something really cool out of this!
It was pretty good but you failed to mention that X drops your current weapon.
pretty fun already. this game could go places.
Fantastic game
Delightful! So simple, so addictive. I'm a fool for airships.
Wicked game, I would love to see this taken further. Rocket Pods seemed a little over powered and I wasn't sure what to do with the torpedo. Other than that though, it was really fun, I came back to play again, and I loved the setting. In my opinion, kickassery is you.
Enjoyable shooter with an interesting loadout mechanic, but I found it a bit clunky switching from keys to mouse to buy new weapons while under attack. Would have preferred a keyboard-controlled menu so I didn't have to keep switching input devices.
I think its a good base. The graphics are good and concept is solid. The gameplay could use some work, I felt the weapons were a little unbalanced, but that could just be me not getting it completely. Great work!
@gamemakingdude : Jettisoning the weapon pod was part of the original design, but in testing I found it didn't really make the game better. I left it in there for when I expand this to the concept I originally had in mind.
@Winterblood: The letters Q,W,E,R,A,S,D,F letters next to the price indicate keyboard shortcuts for those items.
Thank you all for playing and commenting. It pleases me to no end to hear people enjoy this.
@Zemmi: the torpedo was supposed to be an anti zeppelin weapon. Unfortunately I never got around to making the enemy zeppelins.
Really cool to get a top-down flight game like this done in the time allotted.
I think that allowing unlimited ammo might had made it more fun, and perhaps limiting the fuel instead. I'm not sure though.
Great work, should def develop this further.
This was -really- fun. If you kept working on it, you might have a good product to sell, I think.
Very neat game!
I liked the zeppelin base and the overall setting. I've played "Free Fly", killed off enemies and suddenly they were all gone. Dang :)
Desperately needs sounds, music and a boss!
Quality game! Impressive amount of good artwork. When I played the 5 min mode the last minutes there wasn't any enemies around.
Really solid little game. I really like the ship designs, and the core concept is excellent. I didn't seem to be able to survive very long, and/or collect money (although I did manage to shoot down a ship with my pea shooter...) Anyhow, would love to see this expanded with missions/etc.
Excellent entry!
Really enjoyed the graphics and gameplay - I'm also a sucker for airships :P!
Hope to see this developed further...
Very attractive game, would love to see a longer version of this. Airships + pirates = awesome
Neat little game. With some balancing and some polish, I think it would be a lot of fun. I think further upgrades for your plane would be great. It took me a bit to figure out what was happening when I pushed z.
awesome! there seems to be a bug where the enemies just stop spawning after a certain point. Other than that, super great! awesome graphics.
The feeling of the plane is a tiny bit off as well, if there was some sort of acceleration to the turning and speed changing, that would be nice.
