Battleship Crossing

8 votes

Battleship Crossing might get you in a certain kind of mindset, but you need to be prepared for how it turns out. All kinds of battleships, even those flying through futuristic cities, can be considered battleships. Also, just because they're battleships, doesn't mean they're inclined to do battle. Maybe they just want to fly around and see what kind of maneuverability they have, but that's easier said than done. Some regulations and robots are programmed to uphold them, so be ready to weave through their security systems. Your battleship is expensive and has precious pilots inside… at least in theory.

About Battleship Crossing

Battleship was probably one of the first board games you played or have at least heard about while going through life. This game is nothing like it since you're just controlling one battleship and doing your best to keep it in one piece. Despite its fancy appearance, it's heavy and vulnerable to attacks from all sides. You must fly the ship in a way that lets it avoid any dangers while looking off in the distance and planning your route. Unfortunately, you can't really defend yourself so this is a test of your piloting skills. Take heart and take flight.

How to Play

Battleship Crossing is a 3D flying game about piloting a battleship through a futuristic city using the mouse or keyboard. You can steer the ship by holding the Left Mouse Button and dragging the cursor around.

Controls

W/Up Arrow - Ascend
S/Down Arrow - Descend
A/Left Arrow - Steer Left
D/Right Arrow - Steer Right

The goal is to fly your ship safely through the city. The ship's hull integrity is shown at the center of the screen with your current distance above it. The battleship will be destroyed if the hull's integrity drops to zero.

The main menu lets you play the game immediately by clicking on the computer screen. Once you do, the battleship will be deployed and you will be given control. You must steer the battleship to avoid obstacles like other ships and city structures that will appear along the path. Occasionally, a warning alert will pop up, and drones will fly ahead of the ship to fire lasers in its position. The vessel has no choice but to avoid any attacks, but any damage it takes can be repaired if it collects batteries that will also appear along the path. Keep flying until you can't fly anymore.

Tips and Tricks

You must get familiar with the battleship's movements since it gradually shifts in whatever direction you steer it. It's also a big ship, so you should start flying to safety when you see an obstacle appear in the distance. For drones, it's best to move in a pattern continuously, they can't follow.
