Here's how you make this cooler:
Leave a Grayscale trail for a few pixels behind each end of the main wing.  It'd look awesome.

Yes.

Edit:
Hm, maybe there could be a "lopsided" achievement or something, for rolling in both directions.
"Belly Flop": going off the bottom of the screen with the wings facing downward? ;D

I missed three pages ... again.

It looks incredibly fun. I'll have to try this sometime. And that crash animation is epic ^^

Looks like appvar protection is another thing on the list of things to add :P And those are some really good achievement ideas Darl ^^

Is it possible to clip the lines?  Is there an app routine for that somewhere?
One of the few things that bug me about this game, you have a nice healthy 60+ combo going, then you drift to the bottom of the screen where you can't see what you're doing x.x

EDIT:
Just safely ended a 100-something-roll combo *.* now I have all but two achievements:
The last one you get automatically if you get the other 17.  The 5th to last you have to cheat a little ;)
So I've pretty much maxed out :D

Exactly. I wish there were an axiom for this.

I need to update the combo bonus routine, because any combo's over 50 or so will overflow and give too small of bonus points D: And yeah, I really wish Axe had clipped lines like it used to, hopefully someone makes an axiom out of it soon.

Muh, bug ?
I had several times "COMBO : 1" then "COMBO : 655" O.O
I think it means 65535, so -1, but don't know why ^^

Sorry, no screenshots, because it was on-calc..

If lines can only go off the bottom of the screen, you could probably write a fairly simple Axe routine to draw such clipped lines.

I love this game ! Congrats, BuilderBoy...
BTW, how can you do more than 100 000 ? For me, it was really hard to get 10 000...

I feel like you should get points for rotational velocity. I did a combo of 21, but I only got 706 points total! I think that's because I didn't use the thrusters very much.
