Sky Traffic
An air traffic control strategy game: draw flight paths for incoming planes and helicopters, land each at its matching colour pad, avoid collisions, storms and fuel emergencies, and keep the sky safe as shifts get busier.
Sky Traffic puts you in the control tower of a busy little airfield. Planes and helicopters keep arriving from every edge of the screen, and each one wears the colour of the runway or helipad where it must land. Drag a finger or the mouse from an aircraft and draw its flight path to the matching pad, or tap a plane and then its pad to let the tower auto-route it. Two aircraft that get too close trigger an alarm, and one collision ends the shift.
The airfield gets busier the longer you last. Traffic arrives faster and flies quicker, and every ten landings starts a new shift. From the second shift a purple helipad opens and more colours must be juggled. After a dozen landings some planes declare a low fuel emergency with a visible countdown, so you must decide who goes first and who circles on hold. Later, thunderstorm cells drift across the map, and any aircraft that lingers inside one is struck. Quick back-to-back landings build a chain multiplier, and emergency landings earn a bonus. Your best number of landings sets a saved controller rank, from Trainee up to Director.
It suits players who enjoy planning, multitasking and flight control puzzle games that reward calm routes over fast reflexes. Tip: send aircraft on gentle curves, use hold circles to space out traffic, and always route low fuel planes before the storm arrives.
How to play
Drag from an aircraft along a path to the runway or helipad of the same colour, or tap the plane and then its pad to auto-route. Keep aircraft apart, land low-fuel planes before the countdown ends and stay out of storms. Use HOLD to make a plane circle. A collision, a lightning strike or running out of fuel ends the run.
