I really enjoyed getting used to the physics of the air taxi. Getting a soft landing is really rewarding I feel like some visual feedback here would really maximise satisfaction. A bit more of a gameplay loop would be great as well, e.g; beating a highscore.
The music was a really nice touch, the tempo and theme felt good and created a sense of urgency/focus that complimented the gameplay.
Overall enjoyable and satisfying game, great work!!
nice game! i love the sound design hehe
Music was fkn dope, did you make the models yourself? How did you do the music?
@rojaxdev Thank you for playing! We envisioned a much larger city with more hazards, etc. but time got the better of us
@mackelio Thank you for playing!
@osh-studio Thank you for playing! Yes, all the models were created by us. We had a bunch more props and stuff, but we just didn't have enough time to get them in the game. We did not make the music (that's why we opted out of the sound category).
Fun and chill game, neat idea for the theme. It's fairly raw and unpolished but it's ok for a jam, music does not fit at all imho.
@jackaljk Yeah, it was a rough 3 days. Wanted a lot more in terms of, well, everything. But thank you for playing!
That was somehow very satisfying, learning how to control the ship. Love the models, very cute. The music is a bit in your face, would have loved an audio slider.
Nice visuals and very cool soundtrack. Maybe a little bit more fuel would be nice :grin:
The guitar goes hard in this! Enjoyed playing the game very much! Good game!
Easy to figure out, pretty satisfying.
@bauke-regnerus Thank you for playing! I wish we had time for audio management but as usual we left it until the end. We should learn from our mistakes, but this is one we just do all the time :slight_frown:
@mar-zockmeister Thank you for playing! Yes, the fuel tank is a little small. Sorry. We had it small for testing (and I was pretty good at it) and in the frenzy to get the build in on time, we neglected to make it a bigger. There's a post-jam bug-fix version on itch.io with a bigger tank (Easy Mode)
@triangle-point and @agrimes Thank you for playing!
quick to learn hard to master. I think that this could become something quite nice if you work it out more.
@peachtreemcgee Thank you for playing!
I flew all the way to the right to being with and then realised there is nothing to find out there :). Maybe you could have an edge of the world to bump in to or something. Enjoyed it once I got the hang of it though. Good effort.
@duncant Thank you for playing! We planned a bigger world than we ended up making. Sadly - as it goes when you overscope - we ran out of time. The left side's the same.
Gravity could be turned down a bit, it's quite hard to fly around and I was always falling through the map by not holding up for ~2 seconds. Fun idea for an entry, though I would have maybe liked different buildings or a different skybox to feel like I was flying through a city rather than a black void
@mashupgames Thank you for playing and the feedback!
I liked the fancy water buoyancy effects and mechanics. So in the end we just sat there and enjoyed the view instead of flying to platform 2. And we both agreed this was the right thing to do as the fuel slowly ran out.
Thank you for playing, @local-minimum
This a simple and fun little game. A bit difficult to keep the helicopter in the air, but else a fine little jam game.
Thank you for playing, @jk5000
Controls are quite difficult, and maybe it would have been easier if there were more buildings to locate yourself in space. But it was really funny, and the fact that we can go underwater were surprising and cool :smile:
Had some fun with this one! The helicopter model was good, and I enjoyed the impact of the "crash landings". The controls of helicopter were good too, initially I felt it was too hard to rise up again once you develop some downward momentum, but in the end I learned how it worked and I think it worked well.
Would have been great to have some more interesting level design, that would challenge the player to be accurate; where mistakes would lead to running out of fuel / crashing more often.
@norah Thank you for playing! I have recently (hours ago) discovered that the controls in the browser do not match the controls in-editor. I made a tweak to the controls and it feels much closer to what it's meant to be. The patched version is on [itch.io](https://bixarrio.itch.io/airtaxi). We had a city skyline *almost* ready (the one in the thumbnail) but issues exporting it from Blender was wasting our time so it ended up on the cutting-room floor.
@honest-dan Thanks for playing, Dan. It was good to see someone else actually playing the game. When you as the dev play, it's usually to test a feature or bug-fix and we tend to not pay attention to other things. Saw some things that I fixed in the latest patch version on [itch.io](https://bixarrio.itch.io/airtaxi)
Cool game, nice music, and I realized I was on the losing side when I could see the visual under the water.😅
Thank you for playing @doraemon
