Sky Duel
Biplane dogfight in your pocket
Two biplanes, one strip of sky.
Loop, dive and squeeze off a burst. Two propellers, one strip of sky.
About Sky Duel
Looping and diving is how you create the shot; the burst itself is over quickly. Height is currency here — climb before you commit and you will win far more passes than you lose.
How to play Sky Duel
Shoot down enemy planes crossing your patrol before they dive on you.
