I can punch people，that's fun enough to me!
Definitely a very interesting idea, however a bit strange. :P I felt like it lacked a bit of gameplay, as I didn't see a real "point" in playing. It didn't feel challenging enough.
Good job on the visual and audio though, however the "robot arm" felt a bit out of place in the otherwise quite realistic setting.
@Apace Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I need to work in 3d more, it was my first time dealing with ragdolls and had some issues with model imports that ate up a lot of time. A lot of stuff got cut and the robot arm didn't get replaced because it was the one model that seemed to work with the punching animations without looking too janky, but I agree that it's not exactly clear what needs to be done and not much else to do other than run around and punch people. Big props to @sethb & @evanricard for making things look good and @joe-garofalo for all the music and sounds.
Super funny game! I included it in my Ludum Dare 41 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7llm9eTY4YI
I think that beating people up would be more fun if there was a clear purpose for the player ! Are we beating them up because they are sick and we don't like that as a pilot ?
I didn't feel like hitting people at first, but then I realized all of them were evil robot clones from the future and I was some sort of Terminator myself, so I convinced myself they deserved it. I focused on punching the glitchy robots (there was one guy with part of his arm inside his belly). I said "take this, you evil bastard" and he replied something like "that's it, I've had it". Or maybe it was another passenger. So, the thing about gameplay some people said...I agree. There's no clear objective. I didn't really understand what the score was for or if I could really stop the pilot from crashing the plane. Also, the flight was really long. Anyway, it felt good that the plane crashed because I probably didn't want any survivors. Good job on the plane recreation and for thinking something weird and new. Thanks for the surreal experience.
I wasn't super motivated to punch people at first but then i realized i was on a plane and i hate other passengers so I went to town. I feel like the humor could be fine tuned into something really snarky and appealing but also you should know that I cracked up when I caught sight of the copilot. Great job!
I think if the plane was smaller, and the passengers that needed to be beaten showed some reaction or an arrow above its head it would get the game more appealing. Anyway good entry and very funny game!
This game is crazy, definitely. I don't know what is happening, I have absolutely no clue why, and all the passengers are 3 models, cloned 20 times. Hitting babies feels wrong, if I do not know why I should do this. This lacks some sort of storytelling.
I'm sorry but i really didn't understood neither your idea or your game. The plane model and the 4 people were fine but it's difficult to call this a game at the stage it is. So graphics ok but gameplay very lacking.
I didn't get what my goal was. How can I tell which passengers should get punched? It seemed like they were all making weird noises. Are you just supposed to punch everyone you can?
I do like how you can jump out of the plane.
I did not quite understand the purpose of the game. I left my rating of your game, if you can leave your feedback in our game, Witch's Escape.
I hope you continue with the project.

Good times, couldn't figure out how to win, but felt like I was winning any way for some reason. The glitchiness of it kind of reminds me of the goat simulator, the wackiness of it too. At this stage, this is the kind of game I can fire up knowing no matter what I do, the plane is still going to crash, but I'm just going to beat the shit out of some passengers in the mean time so I can blow off some steam kind of game. Thanks!
