Fly through the Cinder Belt in Emberwing, a pixel-art vertical shooter.

Blast through waves of enemies and collect the scrap they drop. Spend it in the hangar on upgrades: damage, fire rate, extra guns, homing missiles, wingman drones, armor and more. You keep your scrap even when you're shot down, so every run makes you stronger.

Unlock three planes, each with its own special skill: 

Sparrow: Nova Burst clears every bullet on screen 

Hornet: Overdrive triples your fire rate 

Bulwark: Aegis Field sends enemy bullets back at them 

Every sector ends in a boss fight against the Warden, the Hive Mother or the Lance. Each one gets harder as you wear it down, and they come back tougher in later sectors. 

Controls 

Move: WASD / arrow keys, or drag on touch screens 

Fire: automatic Skill: Space, or tap the skill meter 

Pause: P / Esc ·

Mute: M Only the white dot at the center of your plane can be hit.

This is pleasant, but acqisition af all the goodies is a VERY fast ramp.  It was easy to effectively become a god in just a few levels.

thank for the feedback
