That was fun! I love flying around collecting more ships for your fleet and trying to control them all. It looks great, but it's sometimes really dark and hard to see the obstacles (playing web version).
Note: Often runs better or Chrome than Firefox
Ooh, that was interesting gameplay. I wouldn't have thought to use Phaser in that way. Sometimes it felt more like I was controlling robots than zombie survivors, when they bounced of the cars and didn't know what to do, but the puzzle solving aspect worked well.
Love the improbable concept. Movement system is really fun, but also bit difficult to get a handle on (pianoman373's comment about air drag helped understand what was happening).
The movement is fun once you get the hang of it, and the difficulty progression works really well! The whole style also just fits together perfectly
