Skulls in the Sky
Welcome to Skulls in the Sky, a fast, cute, chaos-filled shooter from Sickle & Scythe.
This is Version 1 — a fun web release while we build toward our full mobile game launching in 2026. Think of this as a little playable “practice game”: you’ll see the vibe, the lore, the energy… and you’ll help shape what comes next.
The Mission
Blast through jelly orbs, survive waves of weird sky-invaders, and push forward until you find the Lost Whale — our mysterious “alien ally.”
Touch the Lost Whale to complete the mission and claim your Victory.
What’s in Version 1
- Arcade-style scrolling shooter gameplay
- Boost movement + satisfying shooting
- Mission complete objective (the Lost Whale)
- Original Sickle & Scythe style + visuals (kawaii-but-deadly)
