Very cool! And the music is good too! Have you tried to implement a dual control scheme using mouse to aim and keyboard to fly?

I liked this very much. A lot of coding went in to this as well some polishing with the intro and the maps. This seems like a more polished game than you would expect in a 48 hour competition.
Some tutorial or infobox about the z key would've been nice but I guess that's nitpicking. :)
Nice job!
The music and visuals a very nice. I liked the look of the fireballs and the little hop of the tree when you hit them was a nice touch.
I could never quite get a hold of controlling the dragon but even when I was slamming into the ground and flailing about I was still having fun.
I eventual become so fast I could stay in a level for more than a few seconds.
Two issues though. When I was typing my dragon’s name every time I pressed “F” it changed to full screen mode or back to window mode and when the camera shook I could see below the world a bit.
the control are bit confusing, on facing right, left arrow bring you up, but on facing left it slam you down. facing side horizontally bring the dragon down. accelerate didn't do much, its better to use boost (z) for me. maybe use direction + accelerate on movement and the dragon floating if no key pressed, would be easier to control.
for other, visual great. game play great! i like to fly around and breathe fire to burn that litle naked warriors. lol.
great build in short time.
Very fun and well polished. I'm not sure if there is a limit to how many upgrades you can acquire but I managed quite a few in my play through up to the point I was basically invincible.
All in all, Awesome game!
Fun little game, but I was a bit confused as to how to return to the map screen after selecting an area to play in. Also I shouldn't be able to fly out of the screen, and somehow I was unable to kill humans/sheep?
@CosmicAdventureSquad
You return to the map by flying out of the level! Just fly a little further :)
The humans and sheep take a fair few fireballs to kill, but it is possible.
@Everyone Else
Thanks for the kind words, the controls are meant to be a little difficult, but I understand it's not exactly super polished haha.
I am fire! I am death!
Nice, though the controls aren't obvious
best game I played so far, lotsa fun, imma try to play it again later
I love how tilted the power balance is in your favor. You are a dragon with attachable bombs after all. The controls were fun to learn. It's cool how the map is connected to just flying away. With little polish this game is a full game I would pay for.
I love the snakey dragon! It's great how much you've managed to get in here (multiple locations, upgrades, etc), awesome stuff.
The controls did take some getting used to and could probably use some tweaks. My only other issue is that it isn't immediately clear what the goal is each level. I assumed there were a certain number of villagers to take out to complete a level, but I gather you just destroy as much as you want to gain loot.
Anyway, nice work!
Very good game!
love it! dragon carpet bombing
Wow this just gets crazy at the end. You might wanna extend the green ground area a little bit further to the bottom though: when the camera is shaking you see the blue sky under it.
Very fun game! I really had some good time with this. I liked the graphics and the gameplay, but... was the bomb supposed to drop infinite times? O.o
Overall, congrats =)
This is brilliant! Movement's a bit tricky at first but very fun once you get the hang of it! Lorez pixelart is great, art and sound/music complement each other nicely; mood matches the delightfully absurd destruction and mayhem.
And the gameover screen art, man. Outstanding work!
Wow! The flying mechanic is awesome! I had a lot of fun with this game! The way you did the movements are great and the interaction with the scenary is really funny! Congratulations!
All in all, a great game! The controls were a bit awkward but I suppose simple controls might make the game too easy? Good entry!
The farmers got me. The color an' visual style was fun. I like how you get to name your dragon. The dragon in our game doesn't get to fly up high an' terrorize villagers, fun stuff.
Really cool game, I loved everything about it, but it was way too hard to control the dragon.
Great game!
