Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description.
Seriously though, very nice and "relaxing" gameplay (whew, it's weird to say that for a game where you're basically shooting things). I think I didn't even use the left cannon ever, but that was me. The visuals and audio is spot on!
In short, the gameplay's a bit boring but everything else is perfect!

Very enjoyable and relaxing experience though. Nice entry.
Kite style and over all game art is beautiful, how come you created with in this limited time, awesome.
I would suggest improvement on game play like convert it to waves of kite with increasing difficulty instead of continuous, then more kites to different location means i could able to play with one on left and bottom one is least used.
The art style is wonderful, as is the music and sound effects.
My only suggestions are with the game play. Instead of launching rockets using the left mouse button, have the rockets launch by the AWD keys themselves. Instead of selecting which rocket base to fire from, let them just fire. Also, allow the player to have multiple rockets in the air (one from each base) in the air at a time. And have the rocket explosion destroy everything nearby, not just the kite that was hit. Have a finite number of rockets, and break up the action into levels.
One thing I really liked about this was that the speed of the rocket varied proportionately with the distance from the firing base to the mouse cursor. This was a nice, but subtle touch.
In all, I would have given this 4/5 stars. Well done!
