About Sky Diver

A shrinking patch of 'good' land serves as the landing target for high-scoring descents. Players must time the deployment of their parachute to avoid gravity's pull, as delaying the ripcord reduces the landing area but increases point potential. Successfully landing on the target causes the plane to descend to a lower altitude for the next attempt.

Player layout in our catalog: 2P sim.

If you are exploring by feel rather than by title, jump from the tags above into the matching genre rooms, or return to the Arcade hall for the full wall.

Open Play on this page to start Sky Diver. Keyboard, USB/Bluetooth pads, and the on-screen touch gamepad all work inside the emulator bar. Save states and fullscreen live on that same bar so you can pause mid-session and resume later.
