This is fun! Most humorous game I've seen so far!

The elevator music jam sets the mood perfectly.

Very nice sound work.

Really clever take on the falling theme!

I really like the vibe of this game. The music makes it really relaxing until he screams in agony

We actually have this idea in our brainstorm phase but couldn't do it at the end. It is great to see some one finally execute it. The graphic is amazing. The game need some mouse input though as it is hare to navigate around.

The music is funny and of course falling out of a plane with no parachute is fundamental to the experience of inevitability. I like it.

Fun game :) Very simple premise, executed really well. I did find problems with things not spawning near where I was falling and pretty much sealing my fate (though if that's intentional fair enough :P) but aside from that I had a good time

I cried with laughter when I hit the ground: "IMPACT!" The game exclaims in impact font in the classic white text with black boarder. The game is a lot of fun, it has a lot of charm and the UI is pleasant and clean. Music was spot on for the game. I enjoyed hitting objects with my face. I just wish there was more object variety, but honestly that's such a small nit pick. Great work.

Nice colors, well theme feeling.

koro-games 2022-04-05 07:33

The fall fits perfectly with the theme! Would be great on mobile

I love the calming music over impending doom. Some simple dumb fun. Love the submission.

kobahawk 2022-04-05 11:34

I laughed kinda hard with the screaming on the end LOL good game!

witchgf 2022-04-05 12:11

That was fun, but maybe screaming sound could be a better quality. Calming music is cool doe.

uzpykes 2022-04-05 13:13

Nice game. Had fun playing it. Great sound effects and an excellent background music choice :D

siskan 2022-04-05 13:31

Perfect soundtrack for this. Fun concept, fun to play. The scream is great and the graphics work really well for this

It might perhaps be more fun if the purple clouds swept you away to disrupt your plans rather than just being purely bad luck.

Trying to die as quickly as possible is actually also a bit fun. It could be a second game mode.

mlkvr 2022-04-05 13:55

Ah yes who would've thought bumping objects while falling could earn you few seconds hahaha, a great example to fun to play jam game congrats!

chartle 2022-04-05 22:39

Very cool, I wish the rate of stuff spawning was a little higher, especially since I found that could never really hit a plane since it was moving too fast. I also fell through some clouds but not others, which felt like a bug but maybe those clouds were too small? Either way solid game for the jam :)

nobongo 2022-04-05 22:58

I really polished game that was really good all around. I really liked the music and actually found it very fitting to falling to my death. Fit the theme perfectly and was overall pretty enjoyable. Good marks on every category!

lachlan-james 2022-04-06 00:56

Hahah, good fun and well executed. I enjoyed this. The music was right on the money. Some minor graphical issues (shadowing popping in and out etc) but super complete for a LD project. Love it!

devvex 2022-04-06 05:10

Great idea and you executed it well!

myttz 2022-04-06 05:33

Im curious about what would happen if i hit the bird? its really hard to catch one, i failed anyway. And i dont know whether its a bug that the tail of planes cant be hit, although there are instructions on them.

bakaraf 2022-04-06 13:00

I want to hear this music if i ever get to be in that situation. Really fun submission, honestly i really laughed playing this one, congrats !

alex-zahn 2022-04-06 18:01

@myttz You may need to use Spacebar (descend quicker) to catch a bird... it's worth it :eyes:

He held out for almost a minute and a half in the air, I don’t know if it’s a lot or a little. The game is fun, quite pleasant, although I would not like to be in the place of the main character :)

matterlinx 2022-04-07 00:36

A great coherent game that game me a good laugh. The music fit the mood of the game very well, and I liked the art style and polish. I think that making the plane a bit slower would help a lot in hitting it though. Well done, thanks for the game!

swordmage 2022-04-07 18:44

great idea, great execution - bravo!

anrqangel 2022-04-07 22:09

Love it!! Fun game, good music, my son enjoyed watching me slam into everything I could!! Great concept, love the music. Awesome submission!! Good job!!

benskca 2022-04-08 00:27

Fun concept and I think you guys executed it really well! I like the feel of the physics and the ragdoll effect's really fun but I feel like I wanted the whole game to go a little faster, I felt a little too in control of the character for the setting if you get what I mean. This is a really little gripe overall though - I had a great time playing and I really enjoyed the visuals and music.

anchoredtoad 2022-04-08 01:51

Loved it, the bouncing feels great and the starting scream is phenomenal.

stalemeat 2022-04-10 03:34

Good jam entry. I enjoyed the music used for this. It gave it some humor. Maybe adding some point pellets or rings to go down to increase the score would add an extra layer to the gameplay. Nice work.

darwyn 2022-04-11 21:17

Good execution of the theme. Beautiful graphics and fun gameplay. TOP!

hawkin 2022-04-11 21:40

First off -- I love the start menu / credits / tutorial navigation. So clean, especially with the soothing elevator music. I think I'll just sit there a bit and enjoy it.

The ragdoll animations were just hysterical, as were the sound choices. I'm not sure how I feel about the beeping to indicate altitude, because it clashed with the soothing music, but I can't say for sure that it was the wrong choice. Overall the game was fun, but I do wish it were a little faster paced!

arihan10 2022-04-16 15:26

Nice game! I really like the idea and think it fits the theme perfectly. The animations, graphics, audio etc. were also all done very well. One of the few games where I don't have much critique to give! :sweat_smile: Good job :D
