Really beautiful game. Some improvements I would suggest:
I would appreciate a compass to know which way is north, I lost my bearings a few times.
Ability to change the speed, often found myself going too fast trying to work out where I am.
Transition away to a top-down view when dropping a parcel, so you can see how close your guess was easily.
Reduce the exaggeration of the terrain height. I looked over done especially on some of the small islands Maybe use some kind of log function so the mountain ranges still stand out
The framerate is extremely poor on my 2015 Macbook Pro, making it unplayable, but other than that the game looks amazing. When the plane is moving, it goes super fast, making it hard to line up to drop a package. A way to slow down would be helpful. The graphics are great, though. When engaging the menu, the screen turns into colored bars and freezes, that's the only real bug I've seen.
This is amazing! I'm not sure if this is the same for everyone, but once I unsuccessfully deliver a package, it no longer gives me options for other countries.
Hello Sebastian, Been trying to reach you. I work for Catheon Gaming and we are looking to partner with game developers. I am very fond of your work and think there is a huge opportunity. Please get back to me at dominick@catheongaming.com .
Really clean and aesthetically pleasing! I know it's still very early and a WIP, but currently using an AZERTY keyboard WASD controls are wonky and can't even select 1, 2, 3. I'd very much like to try the "full gameplay" but I'll have to wait for better keyboard support and/or remapping capability.
Are you running Windows? AZERTY can easily be replaced with QWERTY mapping with Alt+Shift. Just check that QWERTY is an available layout.
For the 1, 2, 3, I assume you have no numpad. You can CAPSLOCK, it works fine. Alternatively, many laptops feature a numlock option, which should work too (generally "fn+num lock", with numbers written in blue on the keys).
Running on macOS here. This is a definitely a workaround, I'll give the game a go this way! However I do believe that having the ability to remap would be actually quite simple to implement.
Also while navigating works without changing the keyboard layout, I could not select the delivery because on an AZERTY keyboard you have to use Shift to use the numbers, and on macOS the default layout for AZERTY keyboards does not allow to use numbers when using Caps Lock but gives capitalised accented letters instead. Of course I can also change my keyboard layout, but that's not really convenient.
granted that may add the requirement for a story, but IF needed, some dystopian future where some package company has taken over, you are a resistant pilot or maybe just some small startup.
maybe if you continue your build yo can have different iterations.
deliver power machine piece to country/town makes it so it will now light up. different weather things can add the need for certain paths.
though if you're just going for an open world sort of flying fun game then none of that backstory is required. either way its an awesome game
The game could do with a little compass or atleast north indicator. Doesnt break the no hints atmosphere as you still can orientate yiurself at sime places
I hope you'll do your source release on Github or Gitlab; I have a feeling this could become quite a fun and educational open source project if you wanted it to.
Some good additions could be a compass, so that you don't get lost as easily, and a spotlight at the bottom of the plane so that it is a little easier to see where you are at night for the dimly lit places.

I like the game so far. Could I recommend barrel rolls?

same everything... Macbook 2015 and bad framerate but I bet its a fantastic game
There is no .deb or .sh on Linux. How to launch ?
Then just double click it or launch it from terminal
You can create a .desktop for the app too
Such a good experience, this should be turned into an actual full fleged game!
this is super awesome! Would love it if it became even more fleshed out and polished as a full game.

“Huh, that’s interesting… I wonde—”
goes to the website
“Blockchain Gaming……”
Hahhaha the "blockchain" developers are everywhere now
everything looks kinda shitty ngl, nfts suck :D
Surprisingly fun to play with a friend, desperately trying to explain to me where New Zeeland is:)
I would honestly love to play this, but i have a frickin chromebook :(

Yeah totally agree, having the ability to remap would be best! That's all we can hope ^^
It says
Windows Protected Your PC
This app may put your PC at risk blah blah blah
Should I still run it?
yes it's fine, it just doesn't have any registered publishers, it's a waste of time, he didn't do it.
Maybe I am stupid, but I am pressing space bar and 1,2,3 and could never drop anything, even I was flying through the fkin France 2 min :D
Great concept, I love geography. Would by nice to get some points and list where you dropped your stuff or some time limit kinda mode.
it's the f key lmao
learned it the hard way
perhaps drones could be an enemy/obstacle.

Very enjoyable game, I would suggest allowing 3 packages per attempt before revealing the final location.
Looks very nice :)
cool
Very nice. Fly around the world and deliver Xmas gifts.

This one is really good! Better than I expected.
How to drop the load?
Hi
Watched several of the videos on you showing your Game Off
my only problem is I am lousy at geographical location
I do not know
A pointer to ware a package needs to go would be nice to have
Thank you
That's literally the point of the game though xD
It's like a Geo-guesser
The project is now on github! You can edit it any way you want.
great game
Much harder for the kid (and for me) than I thought.
I would appreciate difficulty setting so that he doesn't get deterred by initial difficulty.
Countries only, daytime only would be great for kids.
Look in the "About" section in the main menu.
WSAD, Shift (speed up) and Space (drop goods).
1,2,3 to pick a country to deliver goods.
This was a great idea, and a fun little game!
I hope you'll do your source release on Github or Gitlab; I have a feeling this could become quite a fun and educational open source project if you wanted it to.
Yes, I know; I'm asking specifically about releasing on Github or Gitlab versus just a zipfile.
he'll release, it says in the video
in the second video's description

yooooo it finally released!! i have been waiting for this to release! I've been watching all the devlogs and could tell this was gonna be a good game!
I have some feedback for You Sebastian.
First, most important, thing - the game is just AMAZING!!!
On things that need fixing:
-my 21:9 monitor had some issues in main menu - full screen/windowed toggle was entirely hidden behind "back" button
-during flight, the pause menu was hard to read, letters were gray and behind them were thin white stripes.
-add some minecraft-alike music to it!
-a compass is in order
-maybe add a noctovision in the night? In some places during the night it is completely dark
Good luck and have a good day sir!
Add other planes that fly freedom
I think it would be great if the citys you already missed would appear the whole time so you could actually learn where they are or somethin'
Downloading is not very easy
its bc of all the pron on your pc
i am just asking,
HOW
isn't it easy
come on man you just need to click 2 buttons
3, but ye, lmfao
nice
Good stuff. Awaiting to see more developed version.
Also, slowing down the airplane when doing flyover would be useful as well as some kind of map (I am sure that is already on your list).
