Fun game, however, it's too easy to stay on top and drop bombs until everybody's dead! THe graphics are small and nice.

The sprites look really nice and minimalistic. Would have been nice if the game had some audio. Some aerial enemies would have added an extra challenge since i could avoid the ground enemies by staying on top and dropping bombs. Still a really fun and cool game!
Thanks for the feedback. I've added a bit more rocket range to prevent bomb costing along the top of the screen
Fun! This reminds me of an old CGA game I used to play called Sopwith. There are a lot more missiles and bullets to deal with in this one though!
This was neat! Tricky but engaging once I figured out the controls a bit better. Could have done with some sound but other than that it was fun! Well done.
I've always loved these types of games! I feel like the controls could be a bit different, but I loved it!
I liked it! The game is well executed and feels nice. Maybe limiting the ammount of bombs would be a great addition (it was too easy to just fly on top and nonstop bomb everything)
Great job! Keep up the good work!
This is an interesting game. I do really like it. My suggestions to make this even better would be -A different control scheme. Perhaps following the mouse or something. -Less projectiles. The screen was pretty much a sea of little dots.
However, you did quite well. I enjoyed it.
Well done! The idea is simple but it works really well. Graphics are nice and cohesive. The only problem I had was with the control scheme. It was hard to control the plane only with up and down, so that might need some work.
Overall you've done a very good job!
controls were odd to deal with... after realizing that flying at the top of the map at constant speed, nothing can hit you.. then just hold down the bomb button to clear the level.
As said before, pretty easy to just coast along the top carpet bombing until completion! Controls are rather odd, didn't really get used to them even after a couple of minutes - Would benefit from having movement mapped to arrow keys with actions around WASD to allow easy two-handed use - dive bombing is pretty impossible and firing towards the ground whilst also doing evasive maneuvers is really tricky with the current layout.
I like the game idea though, with some additional development you could turn this into something pretty neat! Nice work!
Good effort, the graphics are good and the gameplay is challenging (until I figured out I could just spam bombs from the top of the screen). I would echo that the controls could be better, especially putting bombs on the 'e' key, it makes it very difficult to keep straight what I'm doing.
Overall though a solid dive bomber.
Interesting game. Was a little hard to keep control of the plane, I think if i played it longer I would get used to it though.
The game was interesting to play. at first, the health bars were quite small, but they fit the theme so it makes sense in the long run. Definitely missed the sound, some music or effects would set the tone nicely. at some point, I noticed you could slide backward on the screen, not sure if that was a glitch r intentional. but It was slightly offputting.
It was way to easy to bomb everyone form the top (where they couldn't hit me). It was really hard to control the plane and sometimes the game didn't respond to my input.
Great game! Loved the flying :) I just wished that bombs would have splash damage radius. And it would be nice to start player on safe area, just to let him learn controls first (took a while...) But really good work here!
Hey, hey, hey! I'm also used p5js for my game: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/38/the-whole-truth-about-nature-selection!
Game needs sound and other is very good! Nice game, funny art and idea! Good job!
Nice implementation of a classic games, as said, missing sound effects (i made up for it by making mouth noises), but graphics are nice, gameplay is smooth, one thing i did notice tho was that the ai could do with leading its target as i flew along pretty low at the same height for ages watching all the rockets fire at me from in front but aimed at my back so i was never in any danger of being hit.
still fun, hope to see more updates for it soon
