FlockAim

About

Hello! This is FlockAim

The Dusk Warden, the first boss: a big cyan bird with gold crest spikes and dark armour.

FlockAim is a shooting-gallery game for iPhone. You hold your phone like a window onto the sky, tilt it to aim, and tap anywhere to fire.

The idea

Shooting galleries are wonderfully simple. Something flies past, you aim, you shoot. FlockAim keeps all of that and adds one twist: a bird you hit doesn't just disappear. It falls, and on the way down it knocks over every bird it bumps into.

That one twist changes how you play. A careful shot at the right bird, at the right moment, is worth far more than five quick ones. You start reading the sky, waiting for the flock to bunch up, and then, just one tap.

What's inside

  • Five stages of five waves, each with its own sky, from a warm dusk to the northern lights to an eclipse.
  • Five bosses that shrug off your shots. You beat them by dropping other birds onto their glowing weak points.
  • Nine places to fly over, from waterfalls and castle roads to palm beaches and a cave full of bats.
  • Six upgrades, each with three levels. After every wave you pick one of three cards.
  • Four tiers: Easy, Normal, Hard and Hell. Then stars, 20 badges, a daily streak and paint for your rifle.

Free to try, once to buy

Stage 1 is free, forever. One purchase opens everything else. There are no ads, no timers and no coins, and the game collects nothing about you. You can read exactly what that means on the privacy page.

Thank you

The birds, bosses and places were drawn for FlockAim. The music and some of the sound effects come from generous artists who share their work for anyone to use, and we're very grateful.
