Upgrading the ship was so much fun. (This was my final result: http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/REAQirG.png) \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Otherwise, though, the gameplay felt a little lacking. The cities weren't really too difficult, and it was tedious to go all the way back across the map to upgrade and restore life.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, at times, it felt sort of arbitrary what parts I could place where. I think I mostly figured it out when I made my ultimate sad machine, but it was annoying at first.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Let's see, what else... the theme of using sadness as a weapon was definitely shown in the visuals, but it didn't really fit into the gameplay. The shooter could've been about anything, really.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I can nitpick some more, but at the end of the day, the ship-building was awesome.

Fly around and spread sadness to the neighboring cities. Design your own airship from individual parts!\r\n\r\nIMPORTANT:\r\nThe embeded version above is the post jam version. It only has minor changes compared to the jam version (see list below). I urge you to play the post jam version at least once, otherwise the construction screen will probably be too confusing for you.\r\n\r\nNOTE:\r\nI had originally planned to let the player collect\/unlock the airship parts over the course of the game. However, I ran out of time, so currently you get all parts from the start. That's why it's become more of a sandbox game.\r\n\r\nI hope you nevertheless have fun playing it! :D\r\n\r\n\r\nPOST JAM CHANGES:\r\n\r\nI've realized that many people found the airship construction screen confusing, so I made following changes:\r\n- Added short two-sentence tutorial\r\n- More information in tooltips\r\n- You can see which tiles are blocked\r\n- You can see the limits of the area you can place blocks on\r\n\r\nThe jam version is too easy, so in the post jam version cannons in later cities deal more happiness and have a larger range.\r\n\r\n\r\nBEST AIRSHIP SO FAR: - Thanks Mikomic! xD\r\nhttp:\/\/www.zyxer.net\/ld32\/penicopter.jpg","title":"Depressopia"}
