Description by Selva Interactive (from Google Play)
In Highwind you control a paper plane using only two buttons. You will destroy enemy planes and protect your own. Tapping the right side of the screen will shoot bullets and holding the left side will activate the shield. The shield blocks and reflects bullets back to your enemies.

Fight different enemy planes and obstacles, each with different behavior. Travel to different dimensions and avoid obstacles on the way.

As you progress through the game you will be able to purchase upgrades to your health, shield and ammo. Also, each time you beat a level you will get a power up that will help you defeat your enemies.
Each time you play you will accumulate points that will unlock new planes and new game styles. Try to beat the game in each one of the different styles!

Features

- Simple controls: Play with only two buttons
- Different game styles: Five variations of the game including an infinite mode
- Minigames: Three additional sections with different mechanics
- A different experience each play: Enemy waves are randomly selected from a predefined set
- Upgrades and power ups: Purchase upgrades to your shield, ammo and health. Get a power up every level
- Different airplanes: Unlock new airplanes with different stats

Comments on Highwind for Android

★★★★☆ Ivor Davies · Jun 2, 2019
A new take on the old arcade shooter, it's graphics are really good and the music is great. Gameplay is excellent, you just want to keep going.
★★★★☆ Ian Worthington · Sep 28, 2020
I knock a star off because like someone else pointed out, the mini-games in between rounds are pointless as you can earn 5 coins or lose 5 per mistake. At least give better rewards or lose less. Apart from that great game, has Achievements and leaderboards. 1 more Achievement to earn and 12th rank is my best. Takes around 25 minutes to complete a game mode apart from endless which can go on forever which I started late at night so had to give up but could have gotten 1st I reckon
★★★★★ Ayush Jaju · Jun 6, 2019
Really Nice Game. Smooth Graphics, Great Concept & Gameplay. A HUGE Shout-out For The Developers. You Did A Great Job! Really An Amazing Game!
