Fly an owlet through the night by blinking, or tap. 8 lands, 40 levels, no ads.
Blinkwing is a one-button flying game you play with your eyes. Every full blink flaps the owlet's wings. Keep your eyes open to glide, blink to rise, and slip through the gaps on a night journey across 8 lands.
HOW IT WORKS
The front camera watches your eyes on your own phone. Close both eyes properly and the owlet flaps. Half-blinks and winks do nothing, so you play with slow, full blinks. The owlet closes its eyes when you close yours, so you can see it working. A short calibration at the start learns what your open and closed eyes look like.
No camera, or don't want to use it? Tap mode plays the same game with a tap anywhere on the screen.
A JOURNEY THROUGH THE NIGHT
Fly from Whispering Wood past Pine Ridge, Lantern Village, Windmill Hills and the Old Stone Bridge, and on into new lands. The sky turns from dusk to deep night, then moonrise, a storm and dawn. Each land has its own trees, cottages, windmills and arches to fly through, each with its own rhythm.
A levels map with 40 levels gives you set flights to beat, and the endless journey is always there when you just want to fly.
THINGS TO DO
- Catch moths sitting dead centre in the gaps. Three dead-centre passes in a row earn a firefly.
- Missions to finish, three at a time, paid in fireflies.
- Owlet colours and hats to unlock: an acorn cap, a bobble hat, a nightcap, a crown and more.
- The daily flight: the same course for everyone each day, with a day streak.
- Challenges: share a score card with a link that opens the same flight with your score to beat.
- High scores: your ten best flights, with the land you reached and how you flew.
- Medals, a best score for each land, and separate bests for blink and tap play.
- Calm generated music and soft sounds, each with its own on/off.
CALM FLYING WINS
Blinkwing rewards slow, steady blinks, never fast ones: the moths sit dead centre, so a calm owlet catches the most.
- A gentle first flight while you get the hang of it: three flaps to take off, then the trees.
- Your blink count and blink rate after each flight, just for fun.
- Pauses when you want them: an optional 1-minute eye break (slow blinks with the owlet, a look at something far away, then a moment with your eyes closed; a chime marks each step) and a skippable 20-20-20 reminder after 20 minutes of play. They are breaks from the screen, not a treatment.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
- The camera picture is read by a face tracker that runs on your phone. Nothing is recorded, saved or sent anywhere.
- No account, no ads, no analytics. Your scores and progress stay on your phone.
- The whole game is inside the app, so it plays offline.
Blinkwing is a game, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat or prevent anything. If your eyes hurt or stay dry, see an optometrist.
Mitä uutta
A quicker start: pick eyes or taps and you're flying, with a guided take-off. Crashes now say what you hit and how to dodge it next time, your first gap gets a proper cheer, and level results lead with your stars and Next level (missions and rewards fold into one panel). Clearer edges on the obstacles in the darker lands.
