Congrats on completing the project. Scope is always one of those things that gets away from you. Having ufo's come up from behind and smash you without being able to react is the only negative. I think if this was more like an endless runner going in a single direction that you can see what's coming up and be more predictive, then this would be a great idea.

We wanted to add airplanes to our game but we ran out of time :(

Good to see someone did it! :D

This game could be great!

I say could because this kinda gameplay, in my humble opinion, isn't really made for high score games. Add in some star fox or ace combat missions and you have yourself an incredibly addictive game!

Goes to say, I really liked the physics and thank you, thank you for understanding how plane controls work! I see to many games nowadays that don't invert the buttons and it lights me on fire.

Cool game you got there, wel done

This game whisked me away to a scenario that is very close to the heart for me: dodging alien ships inside a sandstorm. 

Music: 7/10.   The music was whimsical and generally went with the flying theme.  However, given the ever present danger of alien ships, I would have excepted some sort of crescendo escalation of speed and tempo of the music.

Visuals: 9/10.  I was delightfully surprised at the sheer number of alien ships crammed into the fly area.  I felt like Bill Pullman dog fighting near the end of Independence Day right before Randy Quaid turns his kids into orphans.

Gameplay: 6/10.  I appreciated the ability to bank and flip at will, but was displeased at the lack of 'barrel roll' ability.  If Fox McClouds rival Star Wolf saunters in, I'm missing 50% of my defensive capabilities.  Peppy O'Hare would be wasting his breath advising me to 'Try a Barrel Roll'.  Shame.

Overall: I got close to a score of 69,420, and pretty sure I saw green barrels of nuclear waste raining down as well, but I could have just been disoriented due the G Force of my chaotic maneuvers.

Big Chaos! The music was nice, but I mised some sound...
The Graphic was nice asway and a really cool game, but it looks not really finsihed....

You're braver than I lol I wouldn't attempt to make a flying game. I am new in my game dev journey too. Good job getting what you have done accomplished! It felt great. I enjoyed doing some loop-de-loops ... and then crashing hahaha there was definitely chaos here :) Nice music too!
