Griffin Claw

Griffin Claw is a pure one-touch arcade diver set inside a rolling storm front. You fly a young griffin stooping after golden hares that leap between violet thunderheads. Every catch feeds your vigor, every thunderhead you clip steals it back, and the storm never stops getting faster. The controls take one second to learn: hold the left or right half of the screen to bank the dive, release to glide straight. The mastery takes much longer.

HOW IT PLAYS
The griffin dives on its own; your job is steering. Golden hares rise from below and are caught on contact: each catch builds your combo, multiplies the payout in talons, and refills the VIGOR meter that always bleeds away. Violet thunderheads drift into your line and must be avoided: a strike costs vigor and breaks the combo, and an empty meter ends the dive. Three relics can be triggered from the HUD at the right moment: Stormplume forgives one strike, Goldtalon doubles every catch for 10 seconds, and Mistwing slows the whole storm for 8 seconds.

FEATURES
Instant one-touch steering tuned for short, intense runs. A vigor economy that makes every catch matter and every thunderhead a real threat. Combo scoring that rewards aggressive lines through dense prey. Three tactical relics: one protective, one economic, one that bends time. A persistent best score, talons earned from every run, and an aerie market stocked with relics and Second Stoops that let a failed dive continue once. Fully playable offline with clean, fast restarts.

PROGRESSION
Every hare caught converts into talons you keep between flights. Spend them in the aerie market on Stormplumes for insurance, Goldtalons for scoring windows, Mistwings for breathing room, and Second Stoops for one more chance at a record. The storm thickens stage by stage: prey comes faster, thunderheads pack tighter, and holding your combo becomes the whole game. Chase the best, protect the streak, and keep the dive alive one catch at a time.
