Aerial Odyssey

GG. With sheer luck and no windmills.

I think you can benefit from a reset button.

@twowolf amazing! Reset button for what?)

@twowolf if you mean reset level, that we have this button in the upper left corner

Oops.. sorry, I missed that. Loved the game btw.

Such much

@alex-chertilin much of what?)

Really like the art direction here !

innovative and challenging!

You shoulda seen my face when I was presented with that wall of information as you start the game!
I got the hang of it pretty quickly though. I really like the artwork, especially the ship you control! The music was very chill and fitting too!

Most complex and strategic game I've play so far! So amazing!

Took me a bit to figure out how it works. I really love the colors and art used, and that they're consistent in the sky/clouds and the menus!

Nice concept overall and clean execution :) I really got into it, good job!

super cute, love the art style!! was a bit confused at first but enjoyed playing!

OOOF, The art style is gorgeous and the depth you've achieved in 72 hours is pretty awesome! Really detailed strategy game. There are a few balance issues but can't hold that against you given the time frame.

Incredible game ! I also was "puzzled" by all the infos at the start but it is quite fast to figure out in the end ! The principle seem simple but all you can do with it is amazing ! Great entry !

Great game! The graphics and sound are awesome. The mechanics feel really good. As someone already said, the how-to screen is a wall of text. Maybe break it up into a screen for each of the sections? Overall it's a really fun game. Congrats!

Really cool, despite it being quite a complex game I was able to grasp it easily. Loved the graphics. Solid entry. Congrats to you!

Игра очеень классная, меня затянуло. Ребята молодцы!!! 🤗

Neat entry!

First of all, the title art and visual direction were very good. I was reminded a little bit of Townseek by Whales and Games. The info dump at the beginning was a little overwhelming but once you jump into the game it's not actually all that complicated and was easy to pick up.

The routing mechanic was really interesting and led to some fun puzzles and tradeoffs for picking the optimal route. I liked that you could only make one "turn" rather than more complicated paths, and that you had the option to build fans if you got stuck. As time went on, there were more obstacles and higher costs so it naturally grew more difficult.

I drew a pixel art version of the airship and added it to the fan art compilation on my profile. It was a little tricky to figure out how to add cat ears to this one. :cat:

Well done for 72 hours, and good luck during the rest of play and rate!

@jeremy-ryan thx so mcuh! your art so cute!

Amazing game combining the factory building and puzzle. The game looks incredible too!

Um, this is a LOT of fun for such a simple game. Really makes you think through and plan your moves in order to do well. Super easy to play but have to really stop and think through things to do well. Really makes you want to keep playing till you get them all. Great art style too!
I think you could polish up the success and failure of delivery to make the end of a contract more meaningful and flashy. The sounds for those are also almost imperceptible. Other than that, I love it.

Found your game through a stream. Had fun playing, very cool idea! :)

Really nice! I love the graphics and the way that you have to navigate between obstacles!

Can't imagine how you made it in this timeframe, but glad you did, it's a wonderful game and right up my alley. Stands quite out too due to this genre not used that much here. Also really digged the aesthetics of it, very well done and coherent all the way. Great work!

One of the most polished games I played so far, looks (and plays) incredible!

This is one of my favourite games I've played, what an absolute pleasure, with great puzzles and fun mechanics! The art is so pretty, overall great job!!

Very fun... But where are the airship pirates!?

Nice game!

After several attempts, I managed to complete 19 contracts ^^.
There are times when you have to be very precise about the next action and the slightest gap results in the loss of the contract. I think a system where you choose your route and then validate the move would avoid this kind of problem (in case you do a post jam version). Anyway, congratulations on your work, the game is excellent!

@gurtek this is good option, We thought about adding it ourselves in the future

One of the most original games I've seen on this Ludum. A very simple idea, but very functional. I saved to play more! My kids loved it!

Congratulations!

Graphics style very simplistic but pretty. Overall had allot of fun with this one, good job!

The best entry I have played so far in this jam! This is super nice work. I really liked the gameplay mechanics, and how you need to make sure in each round you mine as much as you can and stock up, because if you visit a mine relatively frequent thats better than leaving it alone. The storm clouds were also nice, plus the wind modifiers so you can enable more items to be picked up. The graphics and audio fit perfectly the mood of such a chill puzzler. Big congratulations, this is a super nice game!

Really cool puzzle mechanics, takes a lot of figuring out. Very nicely put together overall!

Excellent game. Hope you are still working on balancing it

It was very interesting and captivating. Great design, nice graphics and audio, it is in my top games list of this year.

@williamsoares Thanks! What do you think you need to change in the design?

Nice graphics and audio and fun to play. Well done :)
