Top-down air shooter, Korean-style: Elemental Wings by Joycity brings back a familiar format

I got into video games relatively late and I managed to miss the whole top-down, scrolling, air shooter craze. Thankfully, the genre is popping up its head here and there these days and Elemental Wings by Joycity is the latest entry in this frantic, colourful genre. No doubt influenced by its Korean roots, Elemental Wings utilizes an anime-esque art style (yes, I’m aware anime is Japanese, but the style is similar) and features this theme throughout the game, not only in its gameplay but in the card system that has been implemented to help you track your upgrades. Check out the launch trailer below:

I love the art style of the game, and if that’s you’re cup of tea, then we’ve provided a Play Store link below for your convenience. Note that the game is available for free to download, but there are in-app purchases lurking around, presumably to make your gaming experience a little easier, should you so choose.
