## Description

No hands needed. Control a firefly with your face — tilt your head to dodge obstacles and open your mouth to blast them away. Record your reactions and share the chaos.

Tilt your head to guide a glowing firefly through an enchanted forest at night. Dodge spiders, frogs, bats, and raindrops. Activate powerful abilities with facial expressions — open your mouth to blast obstacles away, puff your cheeks to magnetically pull power-ups toward you. How long can you survive?

UNIQUE FACE-TRACKING GAMEPLAY
Your iPhone's TrueDepth camera tracks your head movements in real time. Tilt left to fly left. Look up to fly up. No touching the screen — just you and your instincts.

RECORD & SHARE
- Record your gameplay with your face overlaid in the corner (picture-in-picture style)
- Watch replays and share your best runs with friends and family

FACIAL EXPRESSION ABILITIES
- Open your mouth wide to unleash Sonic Pulse — a shockwave that blasts obstacles away
- Puff your cheeks to activate Glow Gulp — magnetically pull power-ups toward you

ENDLESSLY ESCALATING DIFFICULTY
Mindfly starts gently — giving you time to calibrate your sensitivity and find your range of motion. The longer you survive, the more relentless the forest becomes — spawning faster, hitting harder, never letting up. Survive long enough and it's raining hazards from every direction at full speed — no ceiling, no finish line, no mercy. There is no "beating" Mindfly. There is only one question: how long can you last?
