How to Play

Navigate your steampunk biplane through intense horizontal-scrolling stages filled with enemy aircraft and dense bullet patterns. Use the directional controls to move and the primary attack button to fire. Tapping the attack button fires rapid-fire shots and allows fast movement, while holding the button down switches to active Gunner mode, which slows your ship down for precise dodging and focuses your firepower. Press the bomb button to unleash a screen-clearing explosion that grants temporary invincibility when overwhelmed.

Maximize your score by utilizing the jewel-counter mechanic. Defeating enemies with your standard fighter shot turns enemy bullets into rings, while defeating them with your Gunner shot turns bullets into gems. Collecting these items builds your multiplier and increases your overall score. Focus on memorizing boss bullet patterns and switching between wide and focused fire modes to survive the increasingly chaotic stages.

Browser controls and troubleshooting

If the keyboard does not respond, click the game screen first and check the actual key mappings in the player controls. Arrow keys scrolling the page can mean the game does not have input focus.

On a phone, check whether the player provides touch buttons. Try landscape or fullscreen if the controls are too small. After connecting a gamepad, press a button with the game focused and check whether the player recognizes it.

For a black screen or a stalled load, wait briefly before using Reload player or Browse games in the embedded player or play page. Reloading restarts the player and may lose unsaved progress. If no save option is available, do not rely on refreshing to preserve progress.
