Never played flight games before but this looks pretty cool
as a fan of alt-history, the premise seemed really good and i gotta say the game delivered. my only complaint would be that the movement of the plane feels a bit too arcadish, the nose would pitch up and down unnaturally fast, although thats probably just my opinion as a plane nerd. great job.
Thanks! Yes, the intention was to be very arcade-ish, and the handling definitely needs some tuning. I'm a massive airplane nerd myself! I actually was training to be a commercial pilot until my son came along. The setting is supposed to be kind of a spiritual successor to Crimson Skies. I grew up playing those games and just love the atmosphere and everything from those games.
Well done! Flying felt right and only real "bug" I found was that sometimes, the enemy blimps would run into the ground as they kept trying to fly at the same level they spawned. Amazing game for a jam!
Thanks! Yeah, the blimps are running on some very basic AI code. I didn't have enough time to put together a more advanced AI, we had to scrap a lot of the scope in order to make something playable by the jam's end-date. We had story missions all planned with comic-book cutscenes, the works. My awesome team actually all want to keep working on this after the Jam is over so expect more in the future!
Beautiful looking game! Controls were smooth and intuitive, and I had great fun flying through rings and shooting down blimps.
Well done with this :D
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.
