A Clumsy Flight

So my interest in this game was piqued because of how immediately and forcefully the animated description picture reminded me of [url=https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198110595954/recommended/386010/]Steambirds Alliance[/url]...and I really miss Steambirds Alliance. Not what it was at the end, after the devs conceded to the whining crybabies and implemented forced raid teams and repairable planes, I mean launch Steambirds Alliance with permadeath and lone wolfing and flying like a drunk kamikaze pilot and taking risks and reveling in your successes and shruging off your deaths to start anew. And while this game is not Steambirds Alliance, it does a damned good job giving that same feeling. Where Steambirds was a bullet hell, Clumsy Flight is a zombie hell, with a neverending stream of drone planes mindlessly following you but (mostly) not shooting anything, trying to suicide into you to slow you down, and your only hope is to build up your DPS faster than the mob can surround you. The other game it reminds me heavily of is (and gonna date myself here) Smash TV, except instead of being twin stick you can mostly only shoot enemies in front of you...and you're in a plane, so you have to move toward them to shoot them. Yes, that's right, move towards the mob trying to swarm you. The enemies lack variety and the waves advances along the same progression each flight, but the mods you're offered mean each run you need to tweak your strategy and try for a new godlike OP combo based on your options. And hope your juke shoes are shined up enough. But it won't matter, you're only delaying the inevitable. I have yet to reach any sort of endgame and have only gotten as far as defeating the second boss (and assume there are more but haven't reached them). And yet my current record for a single run is over 6,000 enemy planes destroyed. Yes, that's the correct number of zeroes, SIX THOUSAND. One run, I shot down 6,091 planes with a crazy piercing + fire DOT spray and pray build augmented by a double sized bullet, +30% fire rate boss augmentation and THEY JUST DON'T STOP COMING So yeah, you have to be a bit of a masochist. But the challenge makes the little victories oh so worth it, whether sneaking away with a single hit point or threading the needle of an opening barely big enough to slip through or just holding down the fire button to mow your way through the wall of enemies in front of you. You WILL die. Over, and over, and over again. But it's still fun.

Good, short, fun and simple game. The pixel art is endearingly awesome, and the music is great. Upgrades make me feel super powerful when the screen is filled with bullets. Is fun.

Horrible controls no mater if your playing m/k or controller.

It's a bit grindy, but nothing crazy. For the price it is a very big game, with lots of unlockables and replayability. It's difficult, but not enough to put you off playing. My only real issue is the pixel nature of the game, I get that it is a feature, but it is very difficult to read some of the text in game!

Angorytom did a video on this game so i gave it a crack, I finished it in 2 hours.

This is a wonderful game! It looks very cute and has great gameplay! And so far, it seems really well designed, despite only being in early access as of me writing this review. I'm very exited for what the future will hold for this game.
