Introduction to Flying Critters
Flying Critters is one of those delightfully simple games that hooks you from the first minute and doesn’t let go. You start off standing alone under a clear sky, wondering what could possibly be lurking up there. Before you know it, a horde of sheep, pigs, octopuses and bats comes tumbling down, and it’s up to you to fend them off with whatever weapon you’ve unlocked. The sketches are cartoony and colorful, but don’t let that fool you—a steady stream of critters will soon have you ducking and weaving to survive.
What really makes Flying Critters stand out is the upgrade system. Between waves, you get to choose from quirky enhancements—maybe a rapid-fire shotgun, a bouncing boomerang or a bomb you can toss into the fray. Each new toy feels like a mini celebration, especially when you clear a particularly hectic round and watch the little creatures scatter in all directions. Over time you unlock special traits—extra health, tossing out more projectiles, even the odd shield—that keep you grinding just one more wave.
It’s the kind of game that doesn’t overstay its welcome. Sessions run from a few minutes to half an hour, depending on how brave you are, and while the difficulty ramps up fast, that challenge is what keeps you coming back. There’s no story to follow or levels to memorize—just pure, arcade-style fun. If you’re in the mood for a lighthearted challenge with a touch of absurdity, Flying Critters delivers exactly that.
