Hi everyone,

I’m working on Crazy Sky, a FREE 4-player multiplayer arcade flight game.

Crazy Sky has native clients for Windows, Linux and Android. The game has its own dedicated servers, but it can also be played over LAN.

I’m currently looking for Linux players who would like to try the game and give some feedback.

If you find any bugs or have suggestions, please post them in the comments of this thread. Feedback is welcome and will help with development.

Thanks for checking it out!

    I’m starting out my solo game dev journey myself so I thought I’d give this a go because feedback is important.

    It gives me Pilotwings vibes and I played the shit out of that when I was younger.

    Here’s my thoughts:

    Great start. I think the turning circle should be reduced, it feels very wide and impossible to recover from when approaching terrain you didn’t see coming from the side.

    I think movement should be sped up a bit, roll and yaw. Not Ace Combat levels but increase it as it feels quite sluggish.

    Option to speed up like a boost would be good. (Unless that’s there and I missed it).

    I think it would be good to add SOME physics like if you dive you speed up, climb slow down.

    Feel free to send me a DM if you like but great start and keep it up!

    Oh and in playing on Nobara, downloaded the gz and all good.

      Thank you very much for the feedback. The plane movement and physics are far from finished, so I’ll definitely be making some changes in that area.

      I’ve also considered adding some kind of boost, but the problem is that the controls are already fairly complicated on mobile, so for now I decided against adding another control.
