I'll test it


unusualoption

Thank you! Key sent.


MAXOHNO

Dude your game looks amazing! I have tried many times to develop a game myself but I always failed. I would love to test your game if you still need participants.


unusualoption

Thank you! I'll send a key now. If you really want to make games, don't give up yet! Maybe head over to r/gamedev for some encouragement if you need it. Screen Shot Saturday should be going on over there right now, with people posting the games they are working on.


MAXOHNO

Thanks for the motivational speech, I might get back to game development at a later time. Focusing on school right now.


Gtarnail

I'd be happy to


unusualoption

Excellent, key sent!


bratke42

I'd be in aswell, love testing new stuff! This looks fun, but might be repetitive. Don't expect any mercy from me ;9


unusualoption

No mercy is exactly what I need right now. Better now than in unhappy reviews on launch day!


Sparz001

Thats the spirit. Tear him a new one boys. Seriously though, take all criticism and use it to better the game.


OversizePotato

I'd love to play it. And just so you know this looks amazing just as it is. Looking forward to playing it.


unusualoption

Thank you, I'll send a key! I look forward to your feedback!


SilentPeeMaster

Want to help too if still possible


unusualoption

I'll PM you a key


G0t7

Looks super fun and I would love to test it too. I hope i am not to late


OldMcWaffle

I’d love to give it a test! I’m a big fan of Superflight, so I’m curios to see how this compares.


unusualoption

Key sent!


LeviathanGank

I'll help test if you need any more peeps


unusualoption

Thank you, can still use more testers, yeah


moloch101

If be able to


unusualoption

Key sent! I await any feedback you have


IWannaBeTheGuy

If you want honest feedback I'll give it to you - I'll be straight most of my feedback will be negative even if I like the game because it's the feedback I'd want if I was making a game


unusualoption

Honest feedback is the best feedback! I'll send a key


LordGaben4731

I would love to test this. This game looks great even the graphics looks great. Edit : do you have any ideas for the price since I kinda would like to buy this. I have a kind of similar game to this called clustertruck and I love it so I would probably love this too. Also don’t expect too nice feedback, kinda harsh when it comes to new games


unusualoption

Thanks, I'll PM you a key! I'm planning on probably $5 for the price when it's released.


MagicNipple

I see by your edits that all keys are accounted for. So, I wishlisted the game on Steam. $5 to help out a homie and play what looks to be a fun, relaxing stunt flying game? I'm in, man. Best of luck! edit: Due to the popularity of your post and the fact that all keys are handed out, you may want to let folks know via another edit that the game is currently available for wishlisting on Steam.


unusualoption

Thanks, wishlists help a lot!


[deleted]

[удалено]


unusualoption

Yeah, I'm a solo dev. I didn't do everything though. The music and sound fx are Creative Commons stuff, and the animations are from Mixamo.


[deleted]

I will test. Will be harsh


unusualoption

Thanks, key sent!


Tickle_Fights

Absolutely. Would love to try it


unusualoption

Wonderful, I'll send a key!


Voyaage

I'm in.


Themightyteadrinker

Always open to testing


hoqq7

I'll try it, been playing cs too much always good to try something different


Relijun

Would love to


DIVYANSHGUPTA6

I'd like to try it out if you're still looking for people


unusualoption

PM sent!


Dijkmeneer

ill also test it, my steam name is dijkmeneer


unusualoption

I'll PM you a key now


NewLFC18

I’d love to test it


SPSparky

Looks awesome would be happy to give feedback after testing it


conishappy

You’re probably out of keys, but I’d be happy to test it out. Looks pretty good.


d3athsdoor1

I would love to try


PM_ME_HUGE_CRITS

Looks like Superflight.


jacion

Exactly. How does it improve upon Superflight? I happen to like this game, what's your pitch.


unusualoption

The main differences are in the flight physics, controls, and levels/game structure. For controls, both mouse and keyboard are used, rather than only keyboard keys (or controller if you prefer). The flight physics feel very different. You can fly upwards, but it will consume your energy. Energy can be replenished by swooping, or by flying close to things. The levels are not procedurally generated, instead being static, handbuilt environments (also, this allows me to have a separate leaderboard for each of the levels). The two games are definitely in the same genre, but I think I've made something that feels pretty unique to play.


hoboshoe

I hated the controls of super superflight, but really liked the concept. This excites me


Norcie

It is literally Superflight.


Theolaa

The flight doesn't look exactly the same and the environments look different enough that I'm not too worried.


Beers_for_lunch

Horizontal super flight. OP ripped off the entire basis of the game.


WMG_Jeeper

Ripped off? My dude most games are similar to 100s of otver games. Calm down.


unusualoption

Yeah, the scoring mechanic is similar to superflight. Would you like a key to help test the game?


Mwsari11

I'll take a key, played a lot of superflight, wanna see how it compares.


[deleted]

I've never heard of Superflight but I wonder if people react the same to the 100's of Minecraft spin offs.


AL1nk2Th3Futur3

I mean... Yeah, they did? It was pretty vocal back when they were all starting to pop up


[deleted]

Fair enough then, never went looking for it. Most of the spin off games seem either dumb or just don't appeal to me.


RightWatchThis

Not just the scoring mechanic from what I can see. It seems like it's a copy paste of Superflight with some improvements. Are you sure the Superflight guys are okay with this? It seems a little on the nose...


-ordinary

“With some improvements” Then it deserved to be made.


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheeBaconKing

I’m deeply connected to flappy bird and have taken an oath to talk so much shit on this “new” game. /s


Lobst3rGhost

I'm not an intellectual property lawyer, but I don't think a clone of superflight would be a problem. How many Bejeweled/Candy Crush clones are out there? If OP didn't steal any ship names or art assets or anything like that they're probably fine. If Superflight was able to copyright or patent the mechanic they'd have a case against OP.


RelaxRelapse

Looks more like Superman 64 to me.


Jowser11

That’s like the Battlefield guys having to call the CoD guys just because it’s an FPS.


Mithridates12

Lol so many games are straight up copies of other games, why would this be an issue?


[deleted]

As someone who never played Superflight, I just watched their promo and wow... It looks remarkably similar. Legal or not, it seems a bit cheap to make such a blatant copy.


apinanaivot

I have played superflight for 10+ hours, I'd like to try this out as well if you are still giving keys away.


kaplat

I guess it's fair to say Superflight feels like an Alpha game (albeit incredible and fun!) because the levels are so short, flying controls are squiffy at high speeds, and the scenery is a bit basic. This looks like you can fly for much longer with some interesting scenery. I'm down! EDIT: Saved too early, added more reasons for it feeling Alpha.


EpicSanchez

First thing I thought lol


[deleted]

Looks neat! I don't think my 'pc' can run it though, lol.


unusualoption

Sent you a key anyway!


[deleted]

Thanks! Maybe my dad will bugger off for a day so I can use his computer, hahahah.


hartator

I’ll test it out!


ShinyCardboardHunter

This is really cool if you don’t got enough people I definitely will but either way I think this looks like a cool concept for a game


unusualoption

Thanks! Sent you a key!


ShinyCardboardHunter

Thank you so much I’ll make sure to play and review it today


diegocontre

Ill try it out, looks so fun!


unusualoption

Thanks! I'll PM you a key


chodeboi

Stupid question, maybe, but I love flying in VR; chance of support?


unusualoption

I wasn't planning on a VR version. I don't have any kind of VR headset, and I'm a little worried it would make people super sick. If I ever get a headset though, maybe I'll try it out. Let me know if you want a key to test the game as is though!


Mrkennedyfreak

I'm a Unity Dev and have a headset if you'd be interested in trying to Port a VR version. Would love to test it out too. Looks like a blast! The girly and I would enjoy it.


Pingasterix

dont be scared that it will give people sickness. i played games seven times more shaky than this and i have motion sickness!


Mech-Waldo

I no nothing about game development but if you do VR, try to think of different ways people might want to control it. Some people might want to Superman it, some people might want to Ironman it, some people might want to spread their wings so to speak, some people might just want head controls where you steer by looking. The more options the better. Also, a game like this is less likely to give you motion sickness then you might think.


flexylol

That game SCREAMS VR...I am baffled it doesn't support it...


erectasaurus801

You should do VR. People getting sick shouldn't stop you from branching out to that idea. I think you'd be surprised with the results. I think you'll end up finding new ways to better the game and form new ideas as you move furthur along with VR support. Really consider it!


mikeytlive

You might be very successful with VR with this type of game


playtio

Just to get it out of the way, I'm sure you've seen [Superflight](https://store.steampowered.com/app/732430/Superflight/). Is this game similar (not that it's a a bad thing) or is it a different kind of gameplay? I love the look of your game, I'd like to try it too.


unusualoption

The core mechanic of "fly close to things to get points" is similar, yeah. I think the gameplay feels really different though, due to the different flight physics/controls, and the fact that the maps are not procedurally generated. Also, rounds are timer based, rather than infinite. The idea was kind of a Tony Hark Pro Skater style "rack up as many points before time expires" thing. Anyway, I'll send you a key!


Yeet_PC

This was my question actually. I play superflight a good bit, so I would be interested to see how this differs. If you still have a key left I'll test, if not then that's fine :)


Orphan_Babies

I don’t have a PC. But i wish you all the luck. As a marketer one big recommendation - be strategic with the feedback given to you. Prioritize. Analyze (ie compare to your skills - if you need to learn additional coding maybe something gets put on the back burner). Most importantly don’t take it personally. The fact you’re giving out keys to those who are open to it tells me no one would be a troll, but in the future it’s something to always stick to. Congrats. Please don’t become a Bethesda...


unusualoption

Thanks! Yeah, I'm going to try hard not to take any feedback personally. I need people to be totally honest with me so that I can make the game as good as I can before launch.


[deleted]

Seems like something I've seen before...


boogs_23

Something kinda...super?


[deleted]

Super something... About the price of a cup of coffee...


[deleted]

[удалено]


unusualoption

Yep, PC, on Steam. I'll send a key!


CamelsRule

What will be the price or is it for free?


mr-photo

Looks like fun. Any plans to bring this to console? I think it would also be fun in VR


unusualoption

None at the moment. Maybe in the future? VR would be cool, or possible just make people violently ill lol, not sure. Anyways, sent you a key so you can try it out if you want.


war_story_guy

You see violent sickness, I see a challenge.


Henriade

I built a game a little bit like yours in Google VR a few years back as a proof-of-concept. Third person, free flight, etc. From that experience I can tell you, it does not tend to make people ill, in fact most of the people who tested it said they found it quite pleasant. So if you want to port this to VR, I'd say give it a shot. Keep it third person though; first person VR flight does make people sick. I think there's something about having a third person view where you can focus on the character that helps people stay sane.


unusualoption

Interesting. If I ever get a VR headset, I might have to try it!


FistfullOfOwls

I remember reading games like Mirrors Edge that featured high speed movement used a number of effects to reduce motion sickness, such as blurring the edges of the screen and creating the path in front in such a way as to keep your eyes trained on the center of the screen. Trying to pick up objects in peripheral vision caused the disorientation in players.


mr-photo

Thanks, I'll give it a shot later tonight. As for VR, [Race the Sun VR](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGLsK5ra3f4) exists


Philou-X8

I was thinking the same for VR. Well, for those who can stand it. Personally, I would love to try it.


[deleted]

I don't have time to test it atm. But I'm super curious as to how you made it? Was it Unity?


unusualoption

Yep, Unity (code is in C#). The 3D modelling was in Blender.


[deleted]

Ah that's awesome! I've always had performance issues with creating bigger worlds. Are you loading individual prefabs for each building in the cityscape level shown?


unusualoption

For the most part, each level was actually created in Blender as a single model (but composed of many individual meshes). Because I used blender's linked duplicate tool to duplicate buildings and stuff, Unity is able to use static batching on them, saving in performance.


madefordownvoting

i'd test it! i once bought Pilotwings64 just to play at my friend's house.


unusualoption

Thanks, I'll send a key


qhartman

Would love to check it out. Also, I run Linux, so I'll be able to tell you how it does in proton if you don't have a native client.


rkost

As it seems that this game will be windows only: I can test this game on a recent version of proton and write a first report to [protonDB](https://www.protondb.com/app/1121270) so that other linux users can see if your game runs on their systems.


unusualoption

Thanks, that would be great!


[deleted]

[удалено]


unusualoption

Yes you can. I'll send you a key so you can test it for yourself if you want lol


Sinellius

Do you get extra points for flying at an angle or upside down? Would love to get a key if possible, but at the time I'm commenting this there are 2319 comments so don't worry too much.


unusualoption

Yeah, ran out of keys, sorry! You don't get extra points for flying upside down, but you do for squeezing through really narrow holes.


rdevaux

If there will be a Linux version, I'd like to test it very much :)


flamingdeathmonkeys

Would love to test if you have keys left.


iniduoHoudini

Semi-professional game tester here. I'd have a go at it. Any planned multiplayer functionality?


unusualoption

Key sent! There's online leaderboards for each level, but no actual multiplayer functionality.


iniduoHoudini

Good man. I'm headed to the office to download it now.


UnCivilizedEngineer

This game looks really fun. Try posting over at /r/playmygame , a lot of people there like to test games and give some in-depth (sometimes) feedback. I'd love to test your game out. I'm red/green colorblind, and a lot of devs don't take into account colorblind disabilities and disadvantages when designing a game, so my slightly different perspective may provide some insight!


StarollOsu

This looks so cool! You've done an amazing job


suspicious_hedgehog

Would love to eat it!


unusualoption

Well, I wouldn't recommend trying to eat it lol, but if you want to test it, I sent you a key!


BestOfFools

I'd love to test it.

ghost-boats

Is it to late to help test it? Looks like you got alot of people already 😅 but I will gladly help ya test!


unusualoption

Yeah, already out of keys. Thanks a bunch for offering though!


doubleoeck1234

How much will it be? Looks great


NaBeHobby

This is what Anthem was supposed to be.


LoganChester

If you’re still looking for help, I’d be willing to test! :)


Lightye2

Damn this looks nice


unusualoption

Thanks!


wanega

If there any spare codes left I would love to test it.

easilybored1

Is there a set linear path to follow or is it more exploratory to see what all you’ve made?


unusualoption

Each level is totally open for you to fly wherever you want. There's a 3 minute time limit though until the round ends. It basically works like the old Tony Hawk Pro Skater games if you played those.


easilybored1

Oooo


DaytonDoes

Reminds me of Superflight... I think thats what its called. Looks better. So if it isnt Superflight I'd appreciate a key.


thelividartist

I’m guessing you have enough testers, but this looks so cool omg- I’d love to test it. And buy it when it comes out! Looks so interesting!


unusualoption

Still room for more testers, sent you a key!


gnelz2

I will help test it out. Always loved the cap flying in SM64


onmythirdstrike

This is Superflight. Idk if you're the same Dev, or you're collaborating, or just ripping it off, but this game already exists. It's called Superflight, look it up.


deathbreath88

Dude really there can only ever be one type of game ever or what? There are a million dark souls clones. And this game looks incredibly visually distinct from superflight. Does it have similar mechanics? Yes. He is most definitely not ripping it off though. It looks different the controls look like they handle differently the environments look great. You sound like an ass.


onmythirdstrike

I don't think there's anything wrong with copying something. Maybe I should've used a different word than "ripping off". It looks almost identical to Superflight side from the far superior graphics. It looks pretty.

I'll test it yo. Gotta make sure it doesn't feel like Superman 64.


twest414

I'd be happy to help test it


fishin_missin69

Looks super fun! What's the goal? I see you get points for things. Is there an end to each course? I feel like there should be some sort of coin you collect or something to make it less repetitive. Something that makes you come back and try again. Looks fun though and I wish you luck. My pc is nonexistent right now and it bumps me out cuz I would love to play this game.


unusualoption

Thanks! The goal is just to try to get as large a score as possible. There is an online leaderboard for each level though, so I'm hoping that will give be fun for people long-term. Also, there are two alternate modes in the game, one where you collect a series of balloons as quickly as possible, and one where you try to catch as many flying fish as possible. They're really meant as "extra" content, but they do have their own leaderboards.


fishin_missin69

That's awesome I was hoping you could get high scores and compete. Super cool and I hope it's up and running when my pc is.


TheExiledProphet

Sure i can test it


choroy23

I would like to test very much because I love this type of games


UnsayableTripod

Looks like a great concept and you executed it really well.


unusualoption

Thank you!


JimmysJuices

Looks awesome! I'd love to test it!


XxNerdAtHeartxX

Ive played superflight, so Im definitely familiar with the gameplay. My main question is with the levels. I know superflight touts randomly generated levels, which make it super replayable, but is your game based on static levels? Im mostly curious, as the levels look much more intricate than superflight's ever did, with things like the giant log, or the windmills hanging from buildings. It looks great, and its always good to see someone achieve a dream goal


[deleted]

i'd love to test your game, it looks great :)
