Skyfire: Death From Above

I spent a few hours with Skyfire and found something genuinely odd in the best way: it's a real-time strategy game that plays like a bullet-heaven roguelike. You're piloting an airborne fortress through a post-apocalyptic sky, managing defensive upgrades while dodging incoming fire and coordinating attacks against waves of mechanical enemies. The building/upgrade loop is the core draw here, and it rewards players who think two moves ahead about which turrets and defenses to prioritize. The execution is rough around the edges. The UI feels cramped, tutorial handholding is minimal, and the free-to-play model isn't intrusive but it's present. What matters is whether you vibe with the hybrid genre: if tower-defense resource planning mixed with moment-to-moment action sounds fun rather than schizophrenic, there's a solid foundation here worth exploring. For a free indie title from a small studio, it's worth the download to see if it clicks.
