Drakojan Skies 3 Overview
Drakojan Skies 3 was a side-scrolling shooter from the Flash Classic era. It arrived in 2009, developed by a creator known as Drakojan. The game stood out for its detailed pixel art and a sense of scale that felt ambitious for a browser game.
You pilot a single, nimble fighter ship. The core loop is straightforward: you move with the mouse, automatically firing at the waves of enemy craft and larger capital ships that fill the screen. Your main objective is to survive the onslaught, destroying everything in your path to reach the end of each stage. Key mechanics include collecting power-ups to enhance your ship's weapons, from spread shots to focused lasers, and a special bomb attack you can save for overwhelming situations. The pacing is relentless, with a difficulty that escalates quickly, demanding sharp reflexes to navigate dense bullet patterns. It feels like a focused, intense scramble where every small victory is earned.
