Maybe just me, but the mouse-based controls are awfully frustrating. Would have much preferred some sort of asteroid-like controls: Left/Right to rotate, Up for thrust, Z or X to shoot.

2nd submission for Game-A-Month
Follow me on Twitter to follow development of next month's game! https://twitter.com/adampi
I loved it! There are but two annoying issues I noticed though:
1.The gameplay area is sometimes too small, meaning that I often rolled the mouse pointer to the edge of the gameplay screen and opened the rightclick context menu instead of moving my character
2.For some unknown reason, clicking (right, left, sometimes middle) would open another tab in my browser (Opera)
Other than that... awesome game! The music's pleasant, the gameplay is simple, and kept me playing for some time (despite those annoying issues). I'll check out the downloadable version too!
PaperCookies responds:
Thank you! I'm really glad you like it! Opera seems to have mouse gestures, that's why that happened. Other people said this as well, so I'm taking note for future games ;)
lol I broke the game on the level where you first find the red box.i was moving the red box when I accidentally shot the green one out of the spot that was opening the door and I was locked out where the jellies were
PaperCookies responds:
Lol yeah, that was kind of intentional. That's why I put the "Press R to restart" dialog box there. ;)
Won't load. Using Chrome. Some setting on my end to change?
PaperCookies responds:
Not that I know of! Here's a link to a downloadable version instead, for now: https://papercookies.itch.io/floavy
Please consider changing your review if you enjoyed it, it would really help me out! Thanks.
Might be fun but using left mouse button in a browser game might not be the best idea. Mouse gestures conflict with the game controls!
PaperCookies responds:
If the browser version doesn't work for you, you can always download the game here https://papercookies.itch.io/floavy
