This is going to be such a weird thing to point out that I appreciated, but — in the cutscenes, the shot/reverse shot setup with one character or the other indistinct in the foreground is *such* an excellent detail! Well done overall.
Interesting game. It took me a while to figure out how to play, but other than that, I had a lot of fun.
Pretty dope concept and very fun!
The gameplay is pretty and I liked the explosion effect. All the levels felt simple after I understood the controls. I think this could make a cool rhythm game if the drones moved to the beat and you had to tap them on the beat, and it would fit the title too.
Is the main menu audio is playing on the word “drone” (with the drawn out synth note)? If so, that’s kind of clever but I think something a bit more musical would fit better. Also, I think the last level’s music is a bit too loud/piercing.
Anyways, I can tell this took a lot of work to make and it’s high quality overall. Well done!
I love the idea of adding rhythm to the game. Great idea for adding some challenge, too.
Yes, the play on the word was a little last minute. Unfortunately, I’m a terrible composer.
Thank you for playing!
