But I couldnt understand the control buttons before reading description, its pretty original)
Well done on this entry it was really cute and all of the little sprites were cute too. Well done!
PS : love the song !
First time I was confused with controls, but when I figured out with controls I enjoyed!
This game is so funny and could you show a score when I arrive the end.
It looks like a full completed game. You can place it somewhere in AppStore and Google Play and I'll ready to buy it because game is very fun and addictive.
It definetly needs a score when you ends, but its ok.
Great job!
That moment when you're about to finish the game, lol. This game is hilarious and awesome. It's really fun playing around with the passengers and intentionally put them through the propeller (although it sounded brutal). Physics are also well implemented, really great use of the theme in the end.
Congratulations to the team!
I saved 4 people after 3 attempts. Sorry for the others, I did what I could...
Yay! I really liked the song! I wish it was a little longer though. The bouncy synth really lines up with the art and gameplay. I am super happy to find some LD games with fun music!
