What a charming and beautiful game. The stage-prop style art is colourful and cozy, the music is great - a well-made, hopeful combination of electronic & orchestral sounds - and by the end I felt like my little paper plane had personality, even though it’s just paper… I was cheering for it when it made it out the window!
The mechanics are fun too. Drawing in order to move is creative & a great fit for the calming, scrapbook-y style. The paper plane also moves very realistically, so my knowledge of those from the real world helped me play. I have a feeling some people might be frustrated by the way obstacles pop up at you, but I didn’t mind it… the game is pretty short, and having to learn the level and plot a course through it was fun. The stage props popping in and out fit the theming very well too. I wasn’t 100% sure why I was drawing loops in particular - did the plane aim towards the center of the loop, perhaps? - but it seems to work fine, because the controls never frustrated me.
Great work, guys! This is a simple entry for sure, but the gameplay and aesthetics work together to create a charming and, somehow, moving little game. I had a really fun time.
(Note: As I said, I liked the music a lot, but since the game is pretty tricky, I took too long and the song finished playing. It felt kind of sad being without it, so I ended up reloading the page to hear it again. I would set the music to loop, so the player gets to enjoy it the whole time, even if they’re bad at the game…)
Definitely a very unique idea! Nice art and cool mechanic
Took me a while to work out how to properly propel the plane, but that was half the fun! Nice little arty game :D

Stupid house popped out of nowhere >:( Cool game.
Really fun needs a litte longer tutorial to understand hazards better
Honestly, yeah... We actually originally planned to add a second part to the tutorial late into development- sadly, we didn't really have the time to work too much on it before submitting 😅 Thanks for playing though!!
Very neat idea and wonderful art! Love the aesthetic you've got here. I would say it feels unfair at times when objects suddenly move into frame with no warning, but with some adjustments this would be a pretty cool mobile game. Well done :)
Very nice original concept! Didn't quite understand the plane's behaviour and the difficulty was a bit high
The artworks are very cute, I love it
Fun little game! The objects like the sun, rain and fire popping up without much if any time to respond were a bit annoying though. The fires spawned around me!
Yeah, we only started noticing how unfair it seemed late into development T^T... but we're really happy you enjoyed the game regardless! thank you! :D
A nice little game, just got to get to freedom!
Lovely game, simple but effective concept!
Very impressive for A) your first game and B) the time frame in which it was made. The art style is beautiful and I love the idea behind the gameplay. So really good job guys! My only suggestion would be to consider including checkpoints of some sort, or making the game a bit more forgiving.
Thank you! It was our first time trying to work together as a team and we had a lot of fun during the process ^ ^, I do agree with the checkpoint idea, we've noticed how unforgiving it can be sometimes, especially for new players. But thank you so much for playing :D we hope you enjoyed!!
I loved this game so much I went and got the tatoo!
NOOO WAY! I got told this while doing my exam for class LOL this is so cool!!! Thank you so much for loving the game!
Very fun and pretty! A bit difficult - the art is amazing but it's not always easy to tell what's an obstacle and what isn't. Obstacles should also give you a bit more time to react when they appear I think! But it's really lovely and a beautiful concept <3 Great job!!
Great game! I love the concept, the art and music are so charming
Great job devs~
Great art,music and sfx overall, i enjoyed playing the game very much.
I think the game-mechanic of drawing loops from the ariplane was quite well executed. well done!
The tutorial part is great, short and to the point.
Once i figured how to avoid all obstacles it kinda got abit too easy though.
Interesting game! I would love to see a different option to have an EASY mode. I am Skill issue so a easy mode would be appreciated!
How about a separate option to allow checkpoints? and also put more obstacles in the sky box cuz its easily cheese able.
Appreciate the ideas! Options for checkpoints and difficulty do sound really fun. As for the obstacles in the sky, we realized it far too late before joking around that "it is where planes are supposed to be." Good times!
A cute concept with beautiful artwork.
thank you! trying to do simple lineless art for the assets was fun
I love the game! It's challenging but very engaging!
the game is really fun and creative! I really enjoyed it!
