Space Flying/Dodging Game: Turbulence

Hey!  I just uploaded my first game, "Turbulence".  You play as a jet in space, dodging ships and energy orbs, and flying through rings to get speed boosts.

I know, it's pretty generic for a flyer :P

Anyways, I did my best to make the game as bug-free as possible, so if you find anything weird, please tell me!

Also, I know I messed up the spelling on the title screen, I'll fix that later <.<

Controls
    · Use the arrows to move around
    · Press P to pause the game
    · Press Space to get past the title screen

If you have any suggestions for new enemy types, I need them :D

Game can be found here: Turbulence

There's a few minor differences between playing it online and downloading it, so if you have any problems try downloading it and playing it in presentation mode.  Otherwise, it seems to run faster online :/

Enjoy :D

Wow. I highly recommend viewing this. They obviously did their homework ( sad  soon I will too) on 3D space games and everything. Here is some cool stuff about it:

Almost First Person (like BigB's stunt flyer)
enemies flying in
A health "bar" (more like what you would find on a space game)
A damage… thing (just a plane thing that shows your damage)
bugless

Thanks for the glowing review!  Also, glad to hear you didn't run into any bugs :)

This is actually my first time attempting that perspective, and I was amazed how simple it was!

Also, the bar in the top-left corner is actually the speed bar.  You'll see it move around if you fly through a ring or two :)

Re: Space Flying/Dodging Game: Turbulence

It is very fun. I downloaded it(my old labtop isn't exactly great for playing online stuff) and found this game very enjoyable. Great game!
