Dragon, Fly!
(see Figure
3-7
), by Four Pixels, is an adaption of the immensely successful game
Tiny Wings
, by Andreas Illiger, which is available only on iOS at the time of writing. You control
a little dragon that goes up and down an almost infinite number of slopes, while collecting all
kinds of gems. The little dragon can take off and fly if it accelerates fast enough. This is done
by touching the screen while going down a slope. The mechanics are extremely simple, but the
randomly generated worlds and the hunger for higher scores make people come back for more.
