ROADS WERE THE PROBLEM. A canyon wall on one side. A rival on the other. Bank through the gap, hit the turbo and chase first place. Skydrifty brings arcade racing into the sky. Steer your aircraft, time your weapons and choose when to boost, brake or pull a stunt. Learn the course and find your own racing line. FOUR WORLDS. TWENTY ROUTES. Explore Sunbreak Canyon, Neon Coast, JFK Airport Rush and Canopy Rush. Progress from approachable circuits to technical routes and EXTREME runs. Discover shortcuts, thread the gates and work toward a cleaner finish. BUILD YOUR FLYING CAREER. Race against AI opponents, earn rewards and unlock aircraft, pilots, equipment and routes. Choose your loadout, customize your aircraft and pilot, and make your hangar your own. Check the hull and repair damage in the workshop before another race. BRING A FRIEND. Invite a friend through Game Center for a live head-to-head race. The private four-pilot K.O. Cup uses two racing slots per heat while the other participants spectate, with semifinals and a final. Friend modes require Game Center, an internet connection and the participating players. LEARN IT. FLY IT. RUN IT BACK. Practice in Flight School, calibrate tilt steering, use touch controls or connect a compatible game controller. Review a finished race from different replay camera angles and study the moments where you can improve. Local races and your on-device career can be played without a Skydrifty account. Optional account and Cloud Progress controls are available in Settings. Cloud Progress asks you to choose the device or cloud career before enabling backup; signing in does not automatically merge two careers. Game Center and the Skydrifty account are separate connections. Optional in-app purchases are offered through the in-game shop when available.

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Plane Race at none against Skydrifty's 10. Plane Race also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
