Deliver heart-filled love letters via paper plane in this Japanese indie game 

KOIBUMI is an unusual flight sim/action game released on December 18 by Japanese indie developer MaviMavi. Available on PC (Steam), players take charge of a confession of love in the form of a fragile paper plane. 

In Japanese,“Koibumi” refers to a letter containing a confession of love. The aim of the game is to pilot your love letter, now folded into a paper plane, through the city all the way to the girl you have a crush on. This sounds pretty straightforward at first, but if you want your love letter to be a romantic masterpiece, you must also collect the hearts scattered around the city. To accomplish this, you will need to pull off trickier maneuvers. 

A range of hazards threaten your fragile paper aircraft as you guide it through the 3D cityscape, including floating balloons and soaring crows. Can you carefully pilot your speeding projectile through the gaps between narrow city buildings while avoiding danger and collecting hearts? 

KOIBUMI is available on PC (Steam). There is a 10% introductory sale discount until December 26.
