Melbourne, Australia, May, 21st, 2026 - Indie developer S-Bend Games is excited to announce their debut game,Freefall '95, is launching on June 1st. Play as a sole survivor of a mid-air disaster, plummeting towards Earth through a variety of levels, from clear, blue skies to stormy mountains, erupting volcanoes, and more.
A Doomed Flight
Combine sick tricks, attempt deadly stunts, and collect items to build up huge brain-tickling scores. Dodge various airborne hazards such as broken aircraft parts and flaming debris, as each hit you take will deal damage and risk ending your run prematurely. Eventually, you'll inevitably meet your doomed fate, only for you to wake back up on the plane, stuck in a twisted time loop, and do it all again. Inspired by classic arcade extreme sports games of the '90s, Freefall '95 takes the player back to simpler times with its nostalgic art style and soundtrack.
Perform Radical Tricks for Massive Combos
Well, don't just sit there, do something! Throughout your free fall, make use of the items nearest to you by grabbing broken parts, passenger belongings, or even...snakes? Then, fall with style while performing tricks like backflips, somersaults, and even the Worm. Picking up items while performing tricks seriously amplifies your score, so try your best to chain as many combos as you can before eating the ground face-first! Bullet hell fans will find a special treat waiting for them, as with each new level, new environmental-based objects, obstacles and quests are introduced. Ice blasts, lightning, and even flaming projectiles; each zone presents a checklist of challenges you must complete to advance. Aim for clean, smooth runs as you compete for high scores on the leaderboard against your friends on every level!
Meet Your Fellow Passengers
While in the peaceful confines of the pre-devastated plane, interact with your fellow passengers and take on quests to discover what might be causing this aviation nightmare. Spend your hard-earned coins from previous runs on useful items and upgrades that'll make future falls more enjoyable. Try out each ability item, experiencing levels in wild new ways, and find items during your falls to share with other passengers for their insights. As you unlock new levels, uncover more of the narrative, slowly piecing together what's really going on. If you're lucky enough, you might just unravel the mystery and save yourself from a doomed flight... but do you really want to?
Mind-Bending Gadgets and Abilities
As you progress through the levels, you'll collect unique items and gadgets that change how you play. Draw items to you with the Electromagnet, or use the Repulsor to clear your course of obstacles; all in the name of preserving your epic combos. Don't stop there, though; combine the two to create an orbit of collectibles and hazards all around you. Teleports, Turbo Gloves, and more mind-bending gadgets await you in Freefall '95!
