Presentation

In Loopy Loops you control a small airplane that needs to put on a show for the people down below. Loop around balloons, hot air balloons, zeppelins and fly through hoops and amaze the crowd below. Be careful not to hit the ground or other obstacles. Fortunately for everyone, is is impossible to die since the pilot ALWAYS ejects.

International trailer

Main features
This is a very simple game. Touch anywhere on the screen to make the plane loop. That’s it!
If you want to change directions, just head up to the end of the screen and the plane comes back facing the other way. Easy, right? Sort of. It seems even with a tutorial some players still get it wrong. Do ones that do get it have LOTS of fun with this little game 🙂

Technical details
Simple, but solid. Yeap, that’s it.

Development

Don’t know what to write now. Maybe later.

Curiosities

All the sounds are made by me and Uriel Cordas. It was really funny and cool to record and implement voiced sfx. I would even go so far as to say these are the best sound effects I ever did in any videogame. Also, production started exactly when the programmer was a father to twins. Talk about timing 🙂
