About Retro Paper Ace
The morning the sky folded open, every radio on Earth played the same sound. Like a pencil snapping. Forever. The aliens came for our ink. You came for them. Retro Paper Ace is an arcade dogfighter drawn entirely in hand-doodled paper: your jet is a cutout, the mountains are pencil scribbles, and the invaders are angry origami with attitude. Fly for Margin Squadron across 2,500 procedurally drawn sorties, from farm towns to glacier fields, and shoot down everything that buzzes. FLY LIKE IT'S RECESS One finger steers. Guns fire on their own. Your job is the fun part: pick the target, hold the line, dodge the fat slow bullets, and shake tails with barrel rolls and a proper airbrake. The world wraps around, the ceiling has real physics, and the ground does not forgive. DOPAMINE BY DESIGN No-hit streaks multiply your score. Knife-range kills pay double. Clear a wave untouched and the perk deck gets deeper. Fill the fever bar for ACE MODE, push it into OVERDRIVE, and clutch it back from one hull in LAST STAND. Every wave ends with a pick-one-of-three perk. Every sortie ends with a boss. A WAR THAT REMEMBERS CROSSHATCH, your rival ace, runs when he is losing and comes back stronger. Whoever shot you down last returns wearing a wanted poster. Five named aces hide in the sectors every week. Storms throw lightning, night ops shrink your radar, and when a theater boils over, your own base is on the line. BUILD YOUR SQUADRON Twelve doodled airframes with unique special weapons. Nine wingmen with their own perks and their own parachutes to catch. A research lab, alien salvage, and ten flyable alien vessels rebuilt from captured parts. Paint your stripe, pick your callsign, and let the radio call you by name. FAIR MEANS FAIR Everything that matters is earned by flying. Purchases save time, never buy wins. One more sortie. You know you want to. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
