Flyvery by Maek

[raw]
made by Maek for LD29 (COMPO)
So here it is, my 48h game.

Have fun by playing the Game!

Description:
This game is an endless runner so don't try to find the end.
You have to fly in a tunnel beneath the earth's surface. You can shoot at the other cars to reach coins. With these coins you can tune your car.

Control:
WASD to move
Hold SPACE to shoot
ESC for pause

Info:
In the Windows version the Highscore will be saved in a File. In the Cross Platform nothing will be saved when you stop the Game. So when you have problems on Windows with the Windows version try the Cross Platform version.

EDIT********HOLD SPACE TO SHOOT**********

********That's intentional*******Sorry that I programmed the shoting system like this**********EDIT

Shooting wasn't very responsive, and I found it too difficult to hit the other cars.

Hmm, yea, shooting wasn't working very well. Also I think some sounds would have made it better.

Being able to fire faster would be nice. And pay me more for shooting the ships, or else it'll take me forever to earn upgrades.

Okay game. I can't see the bullets. I can't see the benefit of speeding up though, so I drove on low speed, shooting other cars, collecting money.

I enjoyed the game, pretty good. The only thing I disliked where the things in the roof that wrecked your car. Other than that I'd like to see some upgrades for the gun as well, but overall it was fun.

Frankly it could use either some shooting upgrade options in the tuning section or gold rewards every couple of meters depending on how fast you've been going without crashing, but still it's well done for a first game.

830 high score.
It is a very interesting game, I have no critique, just suggestion.
A shield tuning/protection orb power-up/whatever would be very handy, because in these games (subway surfer, temple run) the point is to get as far as possible and the further you go the more the pressure escalates, adding a few chance-based or costly defence mechanism will add more thrill as you will occasionally surpass your previous achievements and at those moments will have to be careful and maintain focus... *blah, blah blah and he keeps talking*

Anyway, nice entry.

Well, pretty simple game. Shooting is somewhat weird - seems like it's unresponsive sometimes.

Shooting seems unresponsive unless you hold the button.

Not responsive enough to be fully enjoyable.

I found it hard to hit the cars, despite that I found it interesting.

I think I gave you most of the comments during the stream, so... you know!

At first I didn't quite figured out the game and I though the firing control was bad. Then I read the description and figured it out. It improved a little bit, but even so I found that it was little related to the theme and that the overall mechanic was a little bit poor. Also, it had no sound and had rather poor graphics for the genre. It still needs a lot of polish to be engaging (sound, kickass graphics, etc).
