I was trying a few things out here:
1. seeing if the mouse could be used to very physically drag a player around, and if this could be fun
2. trying to make some cool clouds
3. playing with trails
4. creating a platform game with great freedom of mobility (you can move in any direction)
the collection part of the game was added on as an afterthought, if I were to do anything with this it would be very different (more like 2D platformer like Aquaria, but flying in the sky), I don't really like collection platformers much
If I were to consider improving this game I'd make properly designed levels and add some powerups (some kind of attack) ... but that would be a few more days work... right now it's just one "level", no sound (though I'm tempted to add some), took me three days, so be kind
anyway... any thoughts
