We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Arcade shooter fans who want randomized stages and score chasing
- Local groups of up to four players who want cooperative space combat

Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players who find switching between several ships during active enemy waves too demanding
- Players seeking a fixed, story-led campaign rather than repeated randomized runs and score-focused modes
- Groups without local multiplayer partners, since the listed cooperative and versus modes are local
- Players who prefer keyboard-focused play over controller use
Our take on The Art Of Flight
The bounce point arrives when several ships require attention at once: losing track of one ship can end the run after the squadron is wiped out. Players who prefer a slower, fixed sequence may also tire of randomized stage orders and repeated score-focused attempts.
What is The Art Of Flight?
Pilot several ships at once in a fast-paced space shooter built around enemy waves, power-ups, bosses, and randomized stage orders.
Each run draws from more than 60 stages, with additional episodes and modes becoming available as play progresses. Shift control between ships, use a Solo ability to freeze time around all but one ship, and accept losses as part of the scoring risk. A run ends when every ship is destroyed. Local co-op supports up to four players across all modes, while local versus and Steam leaderboards add competitive play. Players can rescue captured ships, expand their squadron, and face increasingly difficult waves. The game also includes speed adjustment, controller support, and a soundtrack that reacts to player actions.
