Jousting Flyer Screensaver
The Jousting Flyer screensaver is a self-playing, attract-mode tribute to the classic flying-joust arcade genre. It is free, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.
How the Jousting Flyer screensaver works
Self-piloted mounted flyers flap across a set of floating platforms, colliding mid-air with rivals.
A higher lance position unseats the rival on collision, exactly like the arcade original's core rule.
Unseated riders respawn on a platform to rejoin the fray.
All art and names here are original, in the spirit of the genre rather than a copy of any one game.
A worked example
Two flyers collide mid-air; the one holding the higher position unseats its rival, who tumbles down to a platform below.
