A pretty funny idea, I managed to get a score of 7450! I would have liked to have had more than just the one dog poo to go to (and maybe I just missed other ones let me know) and forward travel was a little tough for me but overall, I enjoyed the game! Nice job on the submission!

Ingenious! LoL xD this is the most hilarious tune that I've come across the jam!! The buzzing during the tune just cracks me! The plot certainly is... *dramatic* and then the vengeance is absolutely absurd hahaha very good job! Also good job on the overall graphics, pretty clean / polished + the fly mechanics. Ones you get used to flying the *copter* (feels kinda like this) it becomes pretty natural.

First run

Then I found your highest pointing (I believe so) asset (the denture muhaha) and got 12k points xD. I like those mechanics. It's also interesting how on the walls there are screenshots other LD games of you :D

Wow that was awesome! I legit enjoyed it, especially the amazing soundtrack.

Gameplay might need some rethinking though since flying outside to grab some more dog poop after 3 charges gets kinda boring and repetitive.

This doesn't feel particularly finished, but I did have a lot of fun playing it, once I figured out how to move.

I have mixed feelings about the control scheme. I've played a lot of jam games with similar concepts before, and I feel like it's more common to just have a button that toggles whether you're flying, and then wasd just pushes you in the direction the camera is looking. This method was definitely a lot harder, and I agree with the other person that it feels a bit helicopter like, but that difficulty did make it fun to play around with. I may have ended up settling on something unintended though, which was to always hold W and the left mouse button, and repeatedly tap the right mouse button to stay in the air.

Also, the music very much sounds fly-like and I think it works very well.

Very nice graphics. with a humerous touch to it. For some reason, my mouse wasnt captured at some stages, making it hard to control the fly.

Love the sound effects by the way.

I can't count the number of times I've wondered how it would feel like to be a fly and fly around. Well, here we go! The flimsy flight controls match perfectly how I perceive flies bouncing into roofs and windows. And leaving traces of poop is just the cherry on top. This is exactly how I and also others I now learn, think when they see a fly landing on their food. The humor and craftmanship really shines in this one. Overscoping was definitely worth it this time! :poop: Really great work!

The flying mechanic is really fun once you get the hang of it, and it's always a good time when you're spreading poop everywhere. Great job!
