Great game! I found the controls a little difficult, but overall it was a fun experience

Also I think you left your personal best in the final build lol, it shows I have a personal best despite having never played before

I like the concept. Plane is a little difficult to fly...have to come back and practice.

I actually had more fun playing with the plane and doing loops than delivering packages :D

Really fun to fly that plane :D

I like the concept, there aren't really any physics though, and I found the controls a little impractical, so maybe add some simple keybindings in settings. A for music though, it's a vibe.

Little bit fun, but no unique idea I found. Movement awesome. Also in game need pilot school(destroyed airplane for 5 seconds!)

The plane physics are really nice! I also appreciate the fully 3D game world, it is fun to just fly around. :smile:

My strategy is called carpet delivery, thousands of packages laid across the landscape as I go haha. I was thrown off at first I didn't realise you have to be over 50 meters or package won't drop. my score ^^

Took me a few crashes to figure out the plane physics but I got used to it. Other than that I think there should be some kind of cooldown so you cant spam space to drop infinite packages. Overall a good game!

love it

Awesome physics with the plane. So good when you take off and start flying around doing rolls :laughing: The music and style are pretty cool. Overall I enjoyed your game, thanks :thumbsup:

I like the music and the physics. Sometimes the camera turns in one direction so that the plane drifts away. Also, the drop is relative to the camera's perspective. When I look from the bird's perspective to direct the targets, it throws the packages 90 degrees relative to it. That means you can also shoot them into the sky. That's why I found it a bit difficult to hit. I just spammed the packages and it worked. The controls were almost intuitive, which I found good. Maybe shift and ctrl for acceleration and deceleration and the camera controllable with the mouse? I also find the transition from one camera to the other very successful

The plane is fun to fly, I quickly ignored my goal of delivering packages (found it very hard to anticipate the right time for dropping them) and started to fly around and do cool plane stuff. ;)

I delivered them all too! My time was a little above seven minutes, a little longer than above, I needed a couple spins to get the rings on top of the ice mountain and the volcano.

Super fun plane movement! Just flying around feels super fun, spinning, turning, trying different camera modes, just movement itself feels super satisfying! The area is fun to explore too, felt like most of the drop-off points had a little landmark next to them, like the city or the volcano, I thought those all looked cool and added some context for the dropoff points. Great job all around!

the concept is good yet i would suggest you to put instructions into the game as "How to Play" scene so that it would fit the player to the game. Also I found the music a bit far from the context it would be great if you would came up with something related to planes. But overall it is a good game!

jk5000 2023-05-01 19:24

The game looks great and I like the music. For me the controls was too complex, but okay it's an issue in many flying games. Overall it is a well made game, and I did have fun trying it. Well done.

"Bombing" rings with packets brings new meaning to airmail. I enjoyed this little game. Succeeded in just under 6 minutes. Like others, I enjoyed just tooling around. Definitely more on the arcade-side of flight sims - I just power-yawed around without any ill effects, and was able to pull out some incredible dives without losing my wings.

This felt like a game that would have taken me a lot longer than 48 hours to make. Nice work.

I tried pretty hard to get used to the controls, they are really loose and require a lot of commitment ahead of time.

Music is banging! Love it!

Sound is serviceable :smile:

Graphics are readable and useable 👍

ludev 2023-05-01 23:17

Fun to control once you get the hang of it. Different camera perspectives was cool; I enjoyed the first-person one. I definitely took a spray and pray approach to delivering packages haha. Propeller sound is great.

nanixdev 2023-05-02 00:56

Thanks everyone for playing the game! I have been reading your comments and appreciate the feedback. It appears there were some mixed feelings about the plane controls. It was hard to make them feel just right. I ended up calling them good enough so I could finish the other parts of the game.

ekaktusz 2023-05-02 14:07

Hi! I think I join the previous comments: The plane is a bit hard to control at first, but I think I've gotten used to it pretty quickly, so it's not a huge issue for me. I'm not that harsh on grahics and music overall it's a COMPO game, and for that I think the results are very impressive in every aspect. Really enjoyed it, nice job!

machinescreen 2023-05-03 10:58

Yeah, like others have said I didn't find the plane the easiest to control - maybe it's a bit too realistic and it could have been more arcadey. Otherwise a solid game, nice job.

fnelix 2023-05-03 19:28

I liked the plane controls and flew a cool looping! Nice entry

droiddare 2023-05-04 14:32

I had a lot of fun playing this, but primarily due to enjoying the flying once I got the hang of it. Felt like a lot of work went in to that, nice!

zhiteng-chen 2023-05-04 15:03

I like the simulator to fly the plane with nice controller. I feel hard to know the goal at first, which may be guided at the start. Welcome to play my game as well~

maximeg 2023-05-16 01:11

It was really fun to play and making a good plane controller is hard so congratulations on that. That is a really solid entry for the Compo!
