*01.04 - For some weird reason the leaderboard has been reset. Sorry for that.*


The islanders need your help! In the midst of a virus outbreak, resources are running scarce, and you are the people's last hope. Using your trusty airplane Condor-19 you will airdrop the supplies required by each island. The skies aren't clear though - steer away from other planes used by greedy hoarders from abroad! If you manage to shoot them down, you can reclaim their cargo and return the precious resources to the people who need them.


>> Controls <<

[WASD] - control the aircraft

[mouse] - aim

[LMB] - shoot

[RMB] - change packages

[Space] - drop a package

[ESC] - end flight


>> How to play? <<

You've got three types of packages to distribute: Toilet Paper, Pasta Packets and Face Masks.

Aiming with the reticle, drop packages on the target pads to score.

Gain fuel and double score for dropping the indicated, most needed package.

Avoid bumping into other planes, shoot them down to claim their cargo.

Cargo is indicated by ribbons hanging off the planes.

Your flight ends when you're out of fuel!


Enjoy the game, and don't forget to put your highscore on the leaderboard!

Lifeline was originally created for Mini Jam 50: Islands, and this is the "extended" version of the game.

Hey, thanks for using my music. I have no idea how to play this game -- kinda hard with a track pad haha, but really interesting concept!

Pretty neat. There seems to be some level of RNG mitigation cuz it's pretty rare that I need a package I don't have. I do wish the difficulty would scale up faster, though; the early-game is quite slow.

Jonu responds:

Thanks. You're right about the mitigation, there's probably a bit too much of it. I'll also consider speeding the game up a little.
