Mechanics

Sky Punks is a new entry in the franchise started by the browser-based racing game Sky Pirates of Neo Terra Racing. The action is set in an unusual science-fiction universe, where people live next to numerous other species resembling humanoid animals. The authors didn't bother to create a plot and the whole game comes down to racing through a track full of dangers and pitfalls, on which we rush on hovering vehicles.

Sky Punks draws inspiration from the endless runner genre. As a result, our machine automatically flies forward along a predetermined route, and we only use gestures to choose one out of the three available lanes. The tracks are full of various threats, such as terrain obstacles, chasms or enemies. In practice, it is impossible to win. Maps are generated randomly and never end, so sooner or later, we will make one mistake resulting in a crash. The game is about achieving the highest possible score to beat your records or those achieved by other users.

Numerous collectible items are scattered on the tracks. Some of them are the currency, allowing you to buy even faster machines and improve your existing ones, while others provide temporarily facilitation during the competition. The game allows you to control several different characters, but they only differ in appearance. Initially, we have only a handful of heroes, but further characters and costumes can be gained by achieving success during the game.
