Built by a veteran game developer around his young son’s artwork, Loose Nozzles is a slapstick arcade game of flight and rescue. Use simple, two-button controls to pilot your rickety rocket and save endangered colonists over 25 levels of increasing intricacy and menace. The child-like look masks a grown-up challenge; each collision risks losing a piece of your rocket, turning a mission of precision flight into a chaotic struggle to survive. Master the controls and learn to fly “smooth” – fast, close, and free of injury – to make your way up the leaderboards. Loose Nozzles is free to play with rocket upgrades, skins that look and fly differently, and alternate play modes for even greater challenge. Loose Nozzles is a labor of love from Foster and Family Games. We hope you like it!
