Plane Loop by TORT60091

[raw]
made by TORT60091 for Ludum Dare 47 (COMPO)

My first compo =)

I learned to code again and at the end of the jam I got an idea for a game!

Use Space Bar or Left Mouse button to control. The main goal is land the plane! Stuck in a Loop 2.gif

Cute game, love the 3D graphics, and the colours you chose were really nice to look at! Took me a bit to get a hang of the controls, but I was able to pretty quickly get to the ground after a few minutes. Neat concept!

It feels unique and experimental. Also, fits the theme nicely. I only struggled with that the player's goal is not obvious.

I really liked the idea and the theme. It would have been cool if you made a cooler looking plane, like add a metallic material? Over all I loved it. Just the graphics. I would love it if u made a polished version of this game

Nice first LD entry!

Looping with the plane and therefor controling it was a fun experience.
The graphics are very nice.
You kept a small scope which ended in you making a pretty good polished game.

Great job and thanks for the game!

The idea is really in the theme and Ive got to say this is well done.
+A plane landing on a heliport is kinda fun :p

Nice game! Simple control and excellent execution. Look like good mobile game base.
At first got lost in control and went into "outer space". Mayby mini-map or some orientir will be helpful.

I quite like the concept! I think the level could be more interesting with obstacles and stuff. I did manage to land the plane on my first try, though I basically did hit the nose right on the ground, which I didn't expect would count as a "nice landing". :laughing: Also I tried again and hit the ground, which made the plane sort of veer to the side and go behind the scenery... ;) The mechanic does work and it's an interesting way to control a plane.

Genius! Simple and fun. This is my kinda game. I think there was room for even more mechanics, but I love what you have as far as the graphics and effects. You made me laugh at the end.

Interesting controller, I found, after some collisions you can fly straight for a while. Would be great to have a designated landing runway. Overal it got me engaged so kudos. Congratulations on learning to code again <3

Really great game! Nice 3D graphics and the controls are simple but really effective. Nice work - now you've done your first jam, nothing can stop you!

Congrats on learning to code again, this is really fun! Really nice minimal design, and the graphics are fun--the little cloud particles are a nice touch.

The 3D was simple but effective, and the particle effects looked really nice. Got so off course on my first attempt I had to restart; once I got the hang of the controls, by my 5th-6th attempt I managed to land wheels down! Good job!

Cute and surprisingly entertaining for a 1 button game. Very simple concept, great interpretation of the theme.

I would have liked the camera pulled out just a little bit because I spent a lot of time after I understood the mechanic just looking for the landing pad.

Interesting controls. I liked it because I'm a game dev but I'm not sure not devs would be into it.

@josephdevelops well It was theme twist )

I think you just didn't try to understand the game mechanic, cause it's simple as much as can be

very unique and fun to play! could be a little harder though, maybe some more obstacles?

@spodthewizard

Yes, I agree with that! The main problem is that the idea for the mechanics came to me only at the end of the compo, so I had less time to make good levels and tutorial

Nice simple game. I enjoyed it for it's limited scope. More levels would be fun

Congratulations on finishing your first compo!

This is a nice idea that could be expanded to a great little game :)
