Crazy Carrier by Attala

[raw]
made by Attala for Ludum Dare 51 (COMPO)

Hundreds of aircraft have to make emergency landing on your carrier. You have to dispatch a new aircraft every ten seconds.

Instructions: Left mouseclick to select aircraft. Click and drag right mousebutton to draw a path for the selected aircraft. Remember to start the path near the selected aircraft. Do not crash into other aircraft and dont fall overboard :) LMBGIF2.gif RMBGIF2.gif Colour coded rings will show where the aircrafts have to park. Select an aircraft and the colours will tell you where to draw a path. Parked aircraft will want to launch after a while. Pay attention to the colour rings.

On the web-version I could not select a plane again to make it go to departure :thinking:.
Controls could have been simpler with only left click and drag from the plane you want to control.

I really like this design. A full-featured version of this on mobile would be great!

The game work on itch for me :thumbsup:

It's fun to play. Trying to plan all the routes at the same time is not easy.

Seemed to be too easy at first, but I changed my mind quite fast :D Lovely game mechanics, enjoyed playing it :)

A fun and very well made little game. The game could have used some music, but it's okay for a jam game. Overall a good compo game. Well done.

Really liked this, There seems to be a problem where you have to overshoot to the left on the left side on the screen end to the right on the right. Luckily its easy to correct for and its really fun to play then.

This game is pretty cool! I really like the idea, trying to send the planes where they need to go without them colliding is really fun. I wish the path following of the planes didn't feel as janky, but it still works. Also, I think it could be nice if the planes moved a bit faster to keep up with the income of new planes. But overall, a really fun and creative game!

Hey, I made the leaderboards!

Nice, this is mechanics-wise one of the most fun games I've seen this LD. No idea how you got such a high score though, as my planes always end up glitching out so I can't select them to start them anymore... (i.e. the planes marked with white and black circles can't be selected).

this is such unique and cool idea, at least for me, I've never played anything like it. It gets super challenging pretty quickly. Great job.

@indigo Glad you liked the game. There is a problem on some computers. I think it's related to fullscreen resolutions, (some of them). Not sure how to fix it. I've changed the viewport settings in Itch.io so it is more playable in the browser without using fullscreen. Thanks for letting me know.

I really like the idea of drawing the paths! I think this could work really well as a mobile game :)

Thanks for sharing your game on stream. I really enjoyed it, I would've appreciated more space on the movement. The graphics were simple, but effective and really well executed. Well done!

I like the music, however a volume slider would've been excellent. It could've also done with a bit more balancing, however I would have to give that some thought about how to do that without changing the theme :sweat_smile:

Excellent job in only 48 hours! I just wish I were better at moving airplanes around. So much death. So much destruction...

This looked crazy fun!

Unfortunately, it wouldn't work past one or two planes for me on the web browser.
So I downloaded it! Bwahahahaha!

It worked much better.
It was fun.

The design was really clever. I loved the level layout, so many little things to consider.
I would have kept playing it for much, much longer but I want to keep giving feedback to people so alas, I must move on. ;-;

Everything was great! Just fixing the web export is the only critique I would have. <3

This is a really fun game. Nice clean graphics, simple to grasp gameplay and neat effects when planes collide. Audio was a little on the quiet side, but overall, great work!

A well designed game! I wish I could have figured out how to move the aircraft in time to avoid the faster aircrafts that were incoming, and the drag mechanic had worked better for me. Otherwise, the music was immersive, and and the mood was well-set!

Thanks for making and sharing the game! Hoping to see this one evolve more!

A game with an interesting concept. It took me a while to really understand how the controls worked, but then it all felt natural. I liked the graphics, and the minimalist sound. The controls are simple and functional too. Good job.
