What I did not like: At first I did not know whats the point. Spaceship was constantly bumping into road edges. I could not find the hospital unless I zoomed out.
Nonetheless, congrats on finishing a great game :)
It was a bit hard to navigate, some kind of quick toggle between far view and near view would be useful (instead of scrolling around like a madman).
Music seemed to fit well and the whole experience was coherent.
However, the gameplay is pretty confusing and not much is happening around. You also cannot pan the world to see where to go and often the clouds obstruct the view.
However, if you were given more time, I bet this game would be a new idea for being published.
A couple suggestions if you were to continue developing: I would get rid of the auto-pathfinding, because I found the most effecient way to play was to just fully zoom out, and click on an alien's location and then the hospital. With the pathing system, the ambulance did it for me. Maybe it would be cool if you could leave the road, but it slows you down if you're not on it?
I also would suggest a UI/arrow element to show where the hospitals are. Once I found them it was easier, but i did have trouble finding them the first couple of times.
Over all a really fun and bright game - I hope your team is proud of your submission! Congrats on finishing!
