Description

ideas under consideration:

  • powerups
    • refill sun meter
    • "air bomb" that clears all clouds/birds
    • bubble to protect the plane (and help clearing clouds)
    • water canon that squirts the clouds for you to clear them away
    • giant vacuum that sucks up clouds, birds, obstacles
  • more obstacles
    • multi-bird formations to fly around
    • kites
    • helicopters
    • falling debris
    • tall skyscraper to fly over
    • storm clouds to avoid (lightning, etc)
  • missions
    • flying through hoops
    • collecting coins in a time limit
  • leaderboard (tracking both cloud score and sun meter %)
  • zen/sublime mode
    • relaxation/practice mode
    • only plane and clouds, no score/meter, no birds, no crashing
