Air War

Air War is a thrilling vertical-scrolling arcade flight shooter where you pilot a jet fighter through heavy anti-aircraft fire and enemy plane formations. You weave through bullet-hell barrage patterns, rescue downed pilots, and collect weapon power-ups that upgrade your fighter from single cannons to devastating spread lasers and homing missiles. Defeating massive flagship bosses at the end of each zone tests your flight agility.

How to play

On desktop, steer your aircraft using the mouse or WASD keys, holding Left Click to fire weapons continuously. On mobile screens, drag your finger across the display to guide your plane; weapons fire automatically. Beginners often get cornered against screen borders while dodging enemy bullets, leaving no room to dodge incoming homing missiles.

Tips

• Stay centered in the lower third of the screen to give yourself maximum reaction time against incoming bullet spreads.
• Save your screen-clearing bomb attack for moments when boss bullet patterns completely cover flight paths.
• Collect weapon upgrade badges immediately when they drop to maintain maximum firepower output.
