About this game
AEROVEX is a free retro arcade vertical shoot'em up for Android, made by a solo indie dev.
The evil Morwyn has stolen the Crystal. Take the controls of the Falcon and fight your way through 10 hand-made levels: city, lagoon, forest, desert, castle, volcano, ice palace and more.
Play your way
- Touch mode: drag your finger to fly, in portrait.
- Controller mode: plug in a Bluetooth or phone-clip controller and the game switches to landscape, with the playfield in the center and side panels for your pilot, life, shield, bombs and level progress. Remappable buttons and a MENU button, so you never need to touch the screen.
Features
- Giant multi-phase bosses
- Power-ups, bombs, combos and score chasing
- A short story with a cast of pilots
- French and English
Free with ads: an ad between some levels, and an optional ad to continue after a Game Over (or simply retry the level).

Yes. An AI assistant (Claude, by Anthropic) was used to help write and debug the game code (Godot / GDScript) and to produce marketing materials (trailers, posters, store and social media texts). The game idea, level design, gameplay choices, testing and final decisions were made by the developer.
