Teleporting Zeppelin by Gremlin

[raw]
made by Gremlin for LD27 (COMPO)
Pilot your teleporting zeppelin through hordes of planes!

Your teleporter takes 10 seconds to recharge; can you survive long enough to escape?

You lose when the planes shoot off all of your guns. The zeppelin is repaired when it teleports.

Shoot with the mouse. Steer with A/D or arrow keys. Teleport with Spacebar.

Tools Used:
Unity
Bfxr
Lightwave
Photoshop

Also uses the open source UnitySteer library.

The desktop versions are mostly untested but should work, since they're pretty simple Unity builds. An updated version is also available, if you want to try it out after you rate the original.

Man that's a lot of bullets... feels good to aim and shoot, but I wish there was some feedback that the bullets were hitting things.

Looking nice, but I don't feel this game has anything to do with skill... at least not any skill that i might have! :)

Looks really cool with all the bullets flying around. Could start up a bit easier though

Those planes destroys all of my turrets in few seconds :) I like tons of bullets everywhere.

Nice grafix, but too many planes too fast, no theme connection

Looks nice. Neat idea but I found it difficult to avoid my turrets all dying a pretty early death.

All the bullets and enemies were cool. Felt more like a survival game than an action shooter since I did not feel like I was in control at all and just waiting for the timer hit 10 to teleport and stay alive

Nice concept, needs difficulty tweaking. Maybe I shouldn't be trying to play it with a trackpad, but I couldn't survive long enough to try out the teleporter.

Decent game, the bullet speed makes it look like the bullets aren't actually moving and you're swinging around a yellow chain! Definite potential though. Good job!

Nice idea, generally fun but it definitely needs more feedback and balancing. Great job so far and for the jam, you should carry on working on it :-)

Looks and sounds very good, but for unknown reason lags horribly at the start, and I couldn't beat it.

Nice.
Sometimes, planes were not destroyed my the zeppelin bullets.

Very nice game with small details that matter.
Cool that you could drive the ship and that the cannons were destroyed when hit.
A bit difficult and not so polished, but 48 hours is not a long time :)
Well done!
