Yeah, I'm actually going to try to make another game that's similar to this one, but with blimps and hot-air balloons from the comic, 'cause I realized that flying games can be easier to make, and often more fun to play. But that will come later.

Wow, thanks guys, this is my first game, uploaded it for the new developers contest.
