The game is fun, but it looks like in its foundation stage though. The manual was a great idea that really drags you into the mood of the game. The main flaw within the game was the controls, which are not really introduced but only explained in the manual, which looks much more like an info dump than a real explanation. I would love to see an improved version of it :D

The manual in the beginning was a really fun way to set the scene and really sold the story! However, it wasn't the best way to teach the controls, I had to keep coming back to it, which meant restarting the game because I had a hard time figuring out what did what.
Great concept and I can see that there has been a lot of thought behind everything, just needs some polish and maybe a bit more hand-holding when teaching how everything works :)

Good try! The game's technical mechanics seem impressive and in depth. It's hard to control, which is probably par for parcel, but it's also hard to tell where to go and land, whilst I understood which angle to orient myself, I had no idea on where to land for the Hub. (The raised platforms I assume, but it's so dang hard to even get there)

There's also a few problems, such as Stepping SFX continuing to play when we're just flying, then there's the lack of SFX or ambience for anything else. The plain landscape makes it hard to detect scale or speed and Sheer White is never a good thing to look at. The fact that it's ESC to unfocus from the steering wheel makes it hard to play due to the nature of Itch's ESC to unfocus or exit full screen. Getting off the steering wheel and whatever direction the Blimp is going, the player character slides across instead of staying in the same spot within the Blimp.

But otherwise, I think it's a fairly impressive, technically speaking, but it's hard to appreciate when the effects are so vague, for something like Wind direction and strength, it'd be good to have a visual representation or even a compass effect for it.

Good try for the game!

I can tell that there was a lot of heart behind the mechanics and the game itself! Unfortunately, while I was able to load up and take off in my little blimp, I struggled to figure out which direction to fly in, and also had a hard time working out how to properly control the blimp itself, though I knew the directions to steer and keep it afloat. I might have missed it if there was one, but I think that having a compass or some other goal post to follow would be helpful! If there was supposed to be one, I couldn't see it for some reason. Also, the font in the beginning was a little bit hard on the eyes, but that's nothing that can't be fixed with a font change.

I had a difficult time working out what to do, but I can tell the team put a lot of time into getting everything working!
