Good job. I really like the idea, but maybe a picture of the house would be better. I found I spent as lot of time reading the text and trying to build a picture in my head of what the house should look like. \n\nAnother idea would be to have a draining battery timer, which the residence of a speedy delivery would supply you fresh ones too so you can keep flying. \n\nI had a lot of fun with your game.

Minor thing that just threw me off a bit, I'd suggest expanding the clickable area.\nMusic is catchy, title screen looks interesting.\nI generally don't like the text stories in jam games, it takes too long to get to the action, but I like that yours was short and to the point, and I love how all the words faded out except \"keep it alive\"... very nice.  However, it should be skippable, especially for replays.\nIts about this time I realize that I'm forced to play in windowed mode, for a stand-alone app a fullscreen option is appreciated.\nThe actual game is pretty fun.  I love the innovation of only having descriptions of houses to go by.  Being able to rotate might help seeing houses from multiple angles, it's way easier to see houses to the north than to the south, but it's not that bad.\nOverall a pretty good game.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"bulle","author_uid":"1184410","time":"2020-04-22T12:46:49Z","epoch":1587559609,"modified":1587559609,"text":"That drone that saved the humanity had a hard time! - I like the graphic and I think it fits very well with the sounds that you have added to it.
