I like the challenges, but I feel like some things could improve a bit:

When releasing the Arrow key buttons, it pop's back into horizontal flying mode, I think for it to be more realistic it should slowly go back to horizontal mode? Also when releasing WASD it instantly stops, this could use some more 'slowing down' too ;)

Quite challenging game. You could improve moving to look more natural however it's still good game :)

Bit of a learning curve on the drone controls, but by the time I got to the last level it was fun to fly through the frames. Had to download, couldn't get controller right stick to work on WebGL player on Mac.

It gets tedious after a while... its really difficult to manoeuvre!

Bit good attempt, its not easy to make the flight controls! :)

Neat game. Navigation is incredibly difficult because of camera's field of view - on drones it's usually wide-angled lense

FRUSTRATION! And I like it :3
But nice game, works well

I actually enjoyed this a lot! I think the "feel" of the flying would be improved if the drone took a moment to come to rest when you release the controls and also if it drifted a little. That would make the game a bit more challenging though!

Very original idea.

It's a nice game, but the drone is a little hard to control.

I like the levels you've created. Playing on a controller really does the trick. Nice game.

Nice game idea.. It is very difficult to control the game. so there you might have some more polishing work to do. But overall it is a good game. I like challenging games!

Not bad. Unpolished, but good effort.

Don't work on WebGL for me :/
I am not sure to understand the link with the theme.

does not fully work with my 360 controler, i cant go forward
i cant go up or down with my keyboard
i can't use both at the same time to compensate

i did that on the web version

neat flight sim kind of thing - nice for compo

hotboxgames 2015-12-17 22:24

Fun, I felt compelled to get at far as I could!
I like it :)

I played with a controller as recommended. This was challenging and pretty fun, I'm actually about to check out the post-compo version now.

It was fun to play! Nice game.

Fun on keyboard. I got the drone feel but 3rd person view would have been cool.

I tried, but only left side stick was reacting in the game. The right side did nothing, so I could only fly up and down and look around.

dregamr 2015-12-30 15:04

Well done, but I think that a little more speed would be better. ;)

randomhuman 2016-01-02 12:27

Feels good to buzz around. Super-challenging to get all the objectives within the time limit after the first level. I would love to have a city environment or something to fly around in. Fun game!
