LD32 Sky Defense - Task Omega by Hairein by Hairein

made by Hairein for LD32 (COMPO)

This is a tower defense shooter with a twist: You need to ride the updraft from jet exhausts placed around your crystal stash to gain the height required to fly around without colliding with the terrain.
There will be thieves coming to get your crystals, so give them some dakka from above!
This game was made in 2 days using Unity 5, Modo INDIE, Photoshop, sxfr and Mudbox.

I liked the idea of getting higher to shoot farther.

This game looks really cool but I couldn't play it properly because no Azerty support :(. Good job though!

Hi there! You can reassign the keyboard controls in the Unity configuration menu that pops up in the desktop versions. Sadly, i'm not sure if this is available in the web or player versions...

It wasn't clear if my shots are going to hit or not. Also the shooting animation is sorta lacking.
Sound wasn't good (would've been better without it).
Graphics was OK.

Nice idea, like el_kloklo said, have to get higher to shoot father was a cool idea. I felt like it would been to nice to have the camera a bit further away to be able to see more.

Great idea for a vehicle! Running air currents is awesome! A little bit more pronounced attack effects (lasers? smaller projectiles?) could make battles easier to understand, and perspective makes it hard to understand, when you get into air current or not (even with that rope or something that is under the vehicle).
