This is not golf by bizn355

[raw]
made by bizn355 for LD28 (COMPO)
This was made using construct 2 so the "Windows" version is basically the same as the web one.
So I started this by creating an early prototype for a golf game. Things were going smoothly until I got home from the cinema and realized I was way too tired to work. (I kinda snapped on livestream)Then decided that doing something completely different would be a much better option. So I did. and now there is a game that has no reference to golf other than one of the objectives of the game. Which is to kinda play golf. with a hovering tank.

You are given one objective to follow. Try to complete the objective and rack up the largest score.
Letting the blue "wings" touch any part of the floor will cause a game over.
Basically don't tip your tank over!
Due to the finicky way the tank handles this is quite a challenge.
Make sure you turn the volume down a bit when using chrome... it can sometimes be a bit loud.

You can find the music from this game and plenty more from my soundcloud page - http://soundcloud.com/bizn355/sets/ludum-dare-28

Otherwise I thank you for finding this game and playing it :D

If you don't jump (say fall off a cliff) the left/right controls still work so you start flying. If that was intentional, that was awesome.

@Ratboy2713 There are a few other gravity / movement bugs in there because of me trying stupidly over-complicated ways of fixing them... (That's kinda where the whole "Fly off the ledge" bug came from) Thanks for playing :D

Launching yourself into the air with your own cannon was pretty fun!

That was pretty silly, but quite enjoyable.

I couldn't figure out why I failed - though I did start trying top fly off the end of the screen to see how far I could get once airborne. :)
