"Though there's one motor gone We can still carry on, Comin' in on a wing and a prayer." The lyrics of this song inspired us to create a remake of the game called FLY - Sopwith Camel from the '80 of the last century about a cool small airplane. Simple and clear mechanics of the game are able to fascinate you for hours of fun. Fasten your seat belts, put on your helmet, goggles and get ready for a flight. Your trouble-free heavy machine gun and your favorite bombs will surely lead you to success. Your seemingly simple warplane is capable to force to reckon with yourself and become a real bomber, bringing destruction to your enemies from behind the clouds or hitting targets in the midst of the clear sky. You are not holding a simulator - you are holding in your hands some stunning explosions, air chases, incessant shots and fantastic air pirouettes. Game features: * Dynamics of a classic old school plane game Sopwith Camel. This is really cool plane game. * Convenient and elegant controls of your aircraft. * Detailed training will remove all ambiguities. * Shoot a machine gun at the enemy and drop bombs at him, and at the same time dodge both enemy bullets and bombs and sometimes your own. * Various enemies with various levels of aggressiveness and artificial intelligence.
