It felt great taking control of the airship. I found it really difficult to line it up to shoot the dragon though. :P Love the dragon btw

Hey, that was fun. Felt appropriately heavy to turn the ship, but maybe too appropriate? ;) Cool theme and game, though.

Nice, but will be better if more polished

I think this would be better as a multiplayer game. Changing between stations is rather frustrating. It's difficult to aim, an FPS-like shooting mechanic would be more useful in my opinion. Liked the visual style, nice use of post-processing.

I was promised dragons, there were no...
Oh wait. There was a dragon.
So this is really cool - well done. But wait, I'm the pirate. Shouldn't I be the monster? My strategy was to flick between one cannon and the wheel rapidly. I couldn't see a way to use multiple cannons and still win. Anyhoo, loved it!

Rather difficult to aim, but a lot of fun being the air pirate. Good stuff.

I liked the sound of the cannon, visual style was cool. Felt like a monster killing that dragon. Fun that a lot of people are doing dragon games we did too.

The game is fun and maybe a bit slow, but it has his depth. I like the dragon model and the ship. I think that this game is an original concept well done. The theme.. is another story :-D

It was really run to take control of the airship. Good job.

This would definitely be more fun as a multiplayer game (coop), but not bad.

I liked the contrast in sfx for the ship cannon explosion vs the dragon fireball. The lighting in the airship and fire fx were great. That also helped the mood.

I popped out of the ship twice while trying to win legitimately, but ended up editing a script to do win in two hits :D
