Introduction

You are ship's captain, and it is your job to guide the ship to safety... through the sky! This game takes place on a flying ship that is on it's way from Faerieland to Terror Mountain, and there are hazards to navigate around, such as obstacles and enemies that actually attack you!

Controls & Instructions

This game is controlled by the mouse, which you use to draw lines of air currents for the ship to follow. Click and hold down your left mouse button to start a line, and let go to finish your line. You can make lines below your ship and direct them upwards to steer your ship up, and you can make lines above your ship and direct them downwards to steer it down. You can make these lines as steep as you want, but if it is too steep, it will just stop the ship. Also, really steep lines move the ship very quickly. You can draw lines anywhere you want to (even behind the ship) but there is no point in that because the only place that affects the ship's movements is in front of the direction it is moving.

Power Ups

There are power ups to watch for while playing the game; they can help you, hurt your enemies, and even give you more points! Be cautious though, and grab them only if you won't crash trying to do so!

Power up	Effect
	COIN : More points.
	HEALTH : Gives health boost.
	SLOWDOWN : Slows your enemies.
	SHIELD : Temporarily protects your ship.
	SWIRLY : Turns any enemies on the screen into items.
	BOMB : Destroys all the enemies on the screen.
	DOUBLE COINS : Doubles your points!

Enemies

The most important part of this game is how you navigate around obstacles. The game gets harder gradually, and you may want to familiarize yourself with the enemies you will face before starting your game:

Enemy	What they do
	Birds & Soft Clouds : Basic enemies.
	Hippo-bird & Tiny Ship : Enemies that follow your ship.
	Cannonball & Rocket : Deals a large amount of damage.
	Pirate Ships : Shoot missiles.
	1st Pirate Ship, Trees, Towers, & Solid Clouds : Unbreakable, they will stop you!

Tips & Strategies

This game requires a lot of trial-and-error, the more you practice, the better you will do.

• Just as the game starts, it is helpful to push the blue button that turns off the unnesessary scenery at the bottom of the screen; this will not affect gameplay.
• Keep your mouse in front of your ship, the closer to the nose of your ship, the more control you will have.
• Focus more on collecting health bubbles and staying alive; points are less important.
• The SHIELD Powerup does not protect you from trees and towers.
• Stay near the middle of the screen rather than very low or high; moving out of the way of enemies is quicker this way.
• Try to get as many points as you can on the first level. This is crucial for getting a high score.
• Click on bullets to make them go away!

Conclusion

This is a very fun game, and fairly easy to learn. The fact that it is played entirely with the mouse is a plus. Directing your ship through many levels of obstacles is a rewarding challenge!
