That's a pretty tricky puzzle game. I feel like I had to think on each one (which I mean as a compliment for a puzzle game). Like for each level, it looked easy enough, but I never got it on the first try. So I'd try something, and whoops! that doesn't work and have to try something else. Which is all you can really ask for in a puzzle game. Lots of good aha! moments. I liked how some of the maps got more narrow and had a bunch of sharp corners so it was just easier and neater to place my waypoints at sharp 90 degree corners, but then you needed to remember that you could travel at angles to solve the puzzle. Just kinda neat how the level layout tricked me there.

The UI and stuff was easy enough to understand what was going on. The paths your planes were going to take was clear. My biggest issue was figuring out the undo. The font makes 2 and Z the same and even when you tried to clarify, I read it as 2EE and tried double-tapping E. (For anyone else wondering, undo is Z like is standard everywhere). A small pain point was the later levels, you'd fail and the map would reset and you'd have to redo all your paths, but I understand it's a game jam and features like that take a bunch of time so it's not a big issue with me. Still, once I figured out the button for undo, it was very helpful to have.

Developer

Thanks! Ya sorry about the undo button problem, I probably should have found a different font once I noticed that. I’m really glad you enjoyed the game!

Awesome concept for this game and it looks very nice. I had a hard time reading the text font that described how to play in the game however

Thank you! Ya you are right, I probably could have improved the tutorial a bit.

Very nice and original entry! I must agree with others, I missed sounds!

Developer

Thanks! Like I said to everyone else, I didn’t have time for sounds :(

Submitted

Simple puzzle game, but actually pretty tricky! I really like the concept. Only thing missing would be some sound effects, other than that it looks good

Developer

Thanks! I was gonna add sound effects, but didn’t have time.

Submitted

Simple and fun, I enjoyed it. Some simple sounds and music would have been a nice touch, but still seriously enjoyed the game!

Developer

Thanks! I was going to add sound, but by the time everything else was done, there was only 45 mins left in the jam so decided it wasn’t worth the risk.

Submitted

I feel that. I was cramming ideas in last second and there was always more I wanted to add. Amazing game!

Nice entry, I'm bad at puzzle :D but I tried as hard as I could to go as far as I can. Seeing the resolution of the path is really great, it comes with a bit of a stress and I liked it!

What a nice lil game :)

Developer

Thanks! How many levels did you end up completing?

Submitted

Ahah I'm afraid to tell but I was stuck on the 4th :D

Developer

That one is pretty tricky. It took my playtester a while to figure it out :)

Submitted

Wow, I love this. It's rare you get a good new puzzler out of a simple concept, but this one works. I would play a mobile version of this about as much as I played Firemint's Flight Control, which is to say, I would play it a lot!

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed! Another person said a mobile version would be good aswell.. maybe in the future I will look into making mobile games..

One bug I found is if one plane reaches the flag and the other flies to nowhere, the game will halt instead of failing and allowing retry.

Man, I love this game.  Currently on level 4.

Developer (1 edit)

Ya I knew about that, but didn't feel it was a priority to fix, since you can just press R to reset the level.

Submitted

Oh! Right.

Definitely a unique puzzle game. I think it would be a great mobile game. 

Developer

Thank You! This was my first puzzle game and first jam, so I'm glad you enjoyed!
