How does the game fit the theme?
The game is about a company (FlightInc) that has a monopoly on the flight industry. You the player have been gambling and lost all your money. Which means that you have to find work. Eventually you start working for FlightInc, they use an AI to route all their flights to save on money, and only employ few humans to correct the AI's rare mistakes. Surely nothing can go wrong... right?
The answer is... yes, everything goes wrong. The AI clearly has started hating humans, it starts making more mistakes on purpose with each day, until it executes it's ultimate plan.

The intro cutscenes are really cool! Love the gameplay
This is very cool! Once getting to grips with the game it was fun trying to manage all the flights. Really tests your geography skills too, nice work!
A bit confusing at start, but it’s an interesting game. You need to know the map a little to play this game! Anyway very nice game, keep up the good work!
Little frustration before I figured out what and how to do, but game is very good after that! Maybe you shoud have some ingame tutorial, like how to correct first flight at start, it would help to understand it and game would be much more enjoyable!
Thank you! Yes we definitely will be working on a tutorial in the future.
Might be a bit confusing at first but really love the idea and the way the game feels!
It took me a while to understand how to change a flight. Additionally, there were flights going to the adjacent country and it was basically impossible to correct them. Also, in Europa there were so many flights that it was kinda hard to even click on the right flight.
But the idea is really cool and innovative and it fits the theme really well! If this gets polished, it will be a really cool game!
Thanks for the feedback! Me and my friend included countries that would be more familiar to people (we're European if you can't tell haha), since having all countries enabled made the game too challenging. I've noticed that there's definitely a balance issue with the current setup. The high concentration of European countries results in many short flights that are hard or even impossible to correct as you mentioned. Also we definitely need a better tutorial and more visuals/sounds to make the game fun.
super cute game. I love the map art, it works really well. Although, there weren't many flights to correct and it took a little while to understand how exactly I can move flights around.
