The Art of Flight

The Art of Flight injects the arcade shooter with some fresh, chaotic fun. Controlling multiple ships at once is a clever gimmick that offers both challenge and satisfaction, especially when you manage to fill your screen with a small fleet of death machines. The strategic elements slow things down a bit, which won’t be for everyone, but they do give the game a layer of depth. It’s not the most visually stunning or aurally thrilling space shooter out there, but it delivers where it counts: fun, frantic gameplay, and great couch co-op. If you’re looking for a short-burst shooter to dip into solo or with friends, this is definitely worth a flight.
