Loopwing is a living murmuration you steer with one finger. A cloud of starlings flocks by the same simple rules real birds follow, so the shapes that ripple out of your touch are never quite the same twice. Sweep the flock through rings of light and it grows. Coil it tight when a hawk dives, because every bird it takes is health you lose. Survive into deep night and dawn brings the next day, endlessly, for as long as the flock holds together. No ads. Between flights the game pauses for one short, true fact about birds instead. A single $1.99 unlock turns them off forever if you would rather fly uninterrupted. Game Center keeps two boards: Top Score and Longest Flight. Your progress rides iCloud, so a new phone picks up right where the flock left off. Built native with SpriteKit and Metal, running at up to 120 Hz on ProMotion displays. Play in portrait or landscape on any iPhone or iPad. On iPhone Duo the sky fills both displays, folded or open.

Snake Game ++'s advantage is ratings volume (985 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
