.love is actually a .zip

modify conf.lua t.screen.fullscreen = false do disable fullscreen.

Nice! Rather unique gameplay, switching back and forth between two different shooters. Pretty fun, too.

PS I like how you can shoot your own balloon down!

flyboy 2012-04-24 05:27

I like having to manage the balloon and the tower at once, cool mechanic.

jezzamon 2012-04-24 05:48

I couldn't manage to run it on the mac. (What you suggested didn't work) I would've like to play it though.

Jezzamon: Sorry for giving bad instructions. I copied the instructions from the love website into the description above. Let me know if it helps!

Excellent game! 5 stars for fun and overall :). Best game I've played yet. Your implementation of the swapping between characters is flawless, and the enemies make it super interesting. Nice job!

robashton 2012-04-24 14:34

I enjoyed the mechanic of dealing with two things at once!

murrayl 2012-04-24 14:56

Good fun; I liked the feel of the controls a lot!

lasseastrup 2012-04-24 14:57

Simple little game with solid elements. You gotta keep your cool as you play with the swapping and all. Good job :)

Nice game! There was a small problem with the rockets not displaying and exploding (the sound did play though).

edg3 2012-04-24 15:45

Quite enjoyed it, the dual mechanic was quite different.

schattenkind-net 2012-04-24 21:06

I like the game. The smoke effect is great. The Birds are evil :). LÖVE ROCKS!

voidchronos 2012-04-25 15:25

I liked this entry. I definitively liked the idea of switching shooters AND i liked friendly fire, Together they make quite unusual gameplay, which is really fun and addictive.

marekkpie 2012-04-25 15:51

Fun, but pretty hard.

racarate 2012-04-26 18:41

I really liked your title screen, this was the first entry I played with a name attributed (I think). The idea of switching vehicles is appealing, though I was disappointed when I saw that they basically behaved the same. The UI was a bit hard to visually parse -- I had a lot of difficulty managing the zombie herd and moving to look where in the text block my life was represented. So much so, that I eventually gave up. I would have loved to seen what music you paired with the zombie-hot-air-baloon concept. Overall, I enjoyed it there was something refreshing about the game -- with some UI-audio-mechanic touches this could be pretty rad.

racarate 2012-04-26 18:46

Oh man, I feel like a jackass. I just realized the two alt-fire mechanics are indeed different. This game rocks. Also, love the small touches like the cloud parallax. The animations on the airship crashing and the bird are great as well. OH AND THE TURTLE, I'll play any game with a turtle in it. Aesthetically, I just noticed that the particle effect is a little jarring with the nicely hand-drown graphics. I don't know what is clashing, maybe the blur or antialiasing... I blame LOVE2D's goofy particle system. Anyways, SHOOTER OF LD23 AWARD.

scgrn 2012-04-27 02:00

Ran fine on Win XP. I like the switching mechanic. Good times!

gnx 2012-04-27 05:50

I liked the core mechanic of having 2 vehicles to shoot from. It is just that the action wasn't very satisfying because the projectiles make little impact and there is a constant spam of enemies.

But I do see the foundation of a good shooter game here.
Music would've been nice.

naouak 2012-04-28 13:33

Pretty good game but it took me some times to understand all the mechanics of the game. The HUD was a bit too complicated for a fast paced game.

summaky 2012-04-28 14:38

I enjoyed the way I have to control the balloon and the turret at the same time, but I didn't understand the connection with the theme.

sfx 2012-04-28 14:55

This game is absurdly fun, but what does this have to do with the theme?

pinkmonkeyhead 2012-04-28 17:13

Simple and fun (and very hard!)

zythiku 2012-05-01 04:18

Was fun trying to manage both ammo counts so you don't run out at a bad time. Like the turtle :).

azurenimbus 2012-05-10 00:18

Fun and engaging.

I had something weird happen to me. I'm sure it has nothing to do with your game, but when I opened it, another Love game opened instead, Wulcan, also from LD. It wasn't even the last one I had played. I had to delete all Love games from the hard drive and then redownload yours to get it to open. Very weird!

skullsoft 2012-05-14 20:13

graytest, I have something to tell you.

I scanned my computer yesterday and found 33 files infected with Paramite A. You might have become infected from playing my game.

I'm really sorry about this.
