Flight
http://www.kongregate.com/games/ArmorGames/flight
It's Christmas Eve and a young girl named Sandy wishes to see her Mommy this Christmas. She writes her note on a paper airplane and addresses it to Santa before tossing it out the window in hopes that it will reach him. That's where you come in.
Flight is a really fun launch/flight game where you fly a paper plane across the world in hopes of delivering yourself to Santa to relay the message that young Sandy wants to see her mother for Christmas. As per any launch game, there is a fruitful upgrade system in place. You can choose between many different upgrades, including all the standards such as air resistance and throw power, and then a couple unique upgrades like: Rainbow Stars, to transform all stars into rainbows which will then grant a boost on pickup; Lucky star, which provides a chance to turn regular stars into gold stars which also boost on pickup; and Crane Booster, again providing boost on pickup. These are all very useful upgrades.
Each level is separated by distanced traveled, which tallies up after each round into a total distance. After a target distance is reached, you will advance to a new level, essentially just giving you a different background to look at while you grind for more cash.
There are a number of objects that you can interact with mid-flight, such as the stars which act as your currency, the cranes which offer a stacking money boost, and even pinwheels laying on the ground which boost you higher into the sky for a last minute extension on your flight time if you can manage to hit them.
All in all, I really enjoyed this flight game and would recommend it as one of my top 5 favourites for this genre to anybody looking to dabble in some good ol' launch action.
Protip: Don't EVER throw your plane backwards. The top comments weren't joking when they said it crashes the game. I just tested it out - it really does crash your game. Whoops.
