S.T.O.R.K. by ragnor

[raw]
made by ragnor for Ludum Dare 53 (JAM)

In this harsh future people take the birth control measures up to a new level but it doesn't matter for you. Because you are a member of the S.T.O.R.K. and you'll make your deliveries no matter what!

Pause any time to change the fly direction of your character. Avoid rocket fire and deliver your packages.

I loved the story!

The rotation of the camera after changing direction gave me a little motion sickness, though (I'm too sensitive for that). And maybe clicking anywhere on the screen would start the giving direction mode, and mouse up would start the flight mode?

Interesting control mechanic that I've never seen before! Maybe instead of having to pause & unpause for each action, you could remove the button all together and automatically pause the game while the mouse is down and you're choosing your trajectory.

Nice idea, I dont quite get why you have to pause the game to change direction tho, it interrups the gameplay imo

Interesting take on the concept, the stork is beautifully made.
I was able to play through trial an error, but I would give you as an advise to make clearer instructions :)

At first I thought the flight control (pausing to change direction) was wonky and unintuitive, but as I got used to it I actually found it to be unique and interesting. I liked how smooth the flight paths were, although I feel like the actual stork turns sharper than the flight paths would suggest. On the third or so level I couldn't find the final baby drop site, and I noticed that the balloon mines don't actually do anything.

Ah yes, I think I might somehow deleted the last drop site, so you can't finish the game. Sorry for my carelessness. Althought you have reached the last level and if you could finish that level it was going to continue from the first level. So you are not missing anything.

Also, all of you are right, we should have put much clearer instructions but we didn't have any energy left at the end of the deadline.

I love the UI especially how it looks. Stork also looks realy nice. If that is the last level then the game is at a correct length at lest for my liking. "I might somehow deleted the last drop site" i'm pretty sure that falls under you can fix it coz it's like a typo rule. Did not like whole pause the game to issue a command mechanic.
Overall nicely done!

@thunderchief you need to pause the game

Lmao the story is fun. Got the first two deliveries but can't seem to get the third one, the bird doesn't seem to be dropping the baby like the first two. Anything I'm missing?
Otherwise, fun game!
