I like it! Thanks for putting that guiding arrow in there. Without that the game would be pretty hard to play. Is there any kind of end condition or anything the player is working toward? One suggestion I have is to put a speed limit on the drone and/or make it less bouncy. I got going really fast and then got between two of the blocks. I just bounced back and forth and there was no way to escape!

No there is currently no end condition I'm just about to head to sleep so I wont have time to add it. But I was going to end the game around the 2 min mark and present a end screen with the score, coins collected and highest multi.

I like the drone movement, and nice job with the pickup mechanic. Adding controls/instructions into the gameplay itself would go a long way for making it easier to pick up, but nice job!

Very fun game to play around with, I started to toss the coins and letting them fall onto the objective while zooming through the map for extra efficiency. Very satisfying :) You could add some more momentum to the coins when they are dropped, I feel like they get very little momentum horizontally but still very fun to play with.

Pretty fun! The arrow definitely helped a lot, and I really liked the rope physics

@adam-gallina Thank you! I for sure spent way too much of my time on that rope :sweat_smile:

Cool little game! Liked the rope physics with the coin!

I enjoyed flying around, and the bounce off of objects at full speed was satisfying :)

This game is crazy with this drone control movement lol. Feels like I'm trying to steer a plane with a string from the ground. Basic and effective gameplay loop.

I'm sure you're already aware but obviously this game would benefit hugely from polish. Also FEEDBACK. I'm not sure your experience level but these are definitely things to work towards. Hit the player's dopamine receptors when they deliver a coin!

*EXPLOSIONS* ;)

@qooorti Thanks! I definity needed Particles and CHING kinda sound when the player delivered a coin. I'm sure this would not be to hard for me to add. My goal was to make the drone controls a little "floaty" and hard to control.

I was going comment on the controls being a bit too floaty and hard, but I've read in the comments above that was the intention, so well done!

Nice little game :) I liked the little details like the rope bending when you move the drone

Drone physics is fun!
