Flashy Bird – Space Tunnel

THE SWOOP GOES TWICE Tier 2 of the swoop is a second drop, aimed mid-fall — swipe again while the first one is still running and the bird re-aims rather than restarting. The ledger is strict about it: the reversal is what the second tier buys, never a free flick. A RAIL ACROSS THE MAP Swipe the map twice the same way and a rail appears with the zones you have been through on it, so getting back to zone 3 from zone 40 is one gesture instead of forty. It only shows up once you mean it, and it leaves the way it arrived. THE MAP REMEMBERS WHERE YOU WERE Leaving a level puts you back where you were standing, not at the frontier — so going back for a missing star no longer costs you your place. A clear with nothing new ahead of it says so instead of sending you somewhere arbitrary. FIVE SONGS, REWRITTEN Five of the twelve worlds got their music reworked, and PULSE now breathes slowly enough to enjoy rather than notice. And a pile of small things: the finish banner and the multiplier live in the tunnel with everything else now, glowbugs hop over the top rail on their way home instead of sliding along it, and the mute pills step aside for a wide balance rather than sitting under it.
