FDG Entertainment's new game Parachute Panic has you trying to guide parachuting stickmen onto moving ships whilst avoiding all sorts of obstacles.
The control system works well. You tap the stickmen to open their parachute and create gusts of wind with the flick of a finger to help move your men in the right direction. Obstacles will appear that you either have to avoid or destroy by tapping them several times in succession.
This game doesn't have a wide variety of modes and the graphics are quite simple. However, the child-like way in which it is presented adds that little bit of charm to the game. There are no online capabilities yet, but there is supposably an update coming out that will offer an online leader board and a buddy list for the game.
If you are a fan of Flight Control or other similar games then give Parachute Panic a try. It's a great little game to play whenever you find yourself with some spare time.
