Wings Takes Flight

October 20th, 2008

With any business, you try to plan your strategy well, but ultimately realize some things just don’t come according to plan.  The same holds true for Bottle Rocket.  We were initially going to come out with some other apps before Wings, but now it’s one of our first to be in the iTunes store.  We’re not saying it’s a bad thing, just a bit of a surprise – like your little brother.  Ends up, we found some amazing talent to help us out with Wings, which sped up the process quite a bit.

It may be a simple approach, but it’s a fun one.  Drifting through a virtual world in different seasons while listening to music just seems to be a relaxing feeling in this all too stressed out world.  We’ve taken full advantage of the accelerometer to maneuver your way around.

Wings comes with four distinct virtual worlds categorized by season:

My personal favorite thing about this app is the fact that even when I bump into a mountain, I don’t crash. Wouldn’t the world be a better place if things only vibrated when bumped into rather than blowing up? Guess that’s what the virtual world is for. We hope you’ll like Wings as much as we’ve come to like it, as well as any friends that have played around with it!

Get it now at the App Store
