About this game

Chasing Aurora is a 2D aerial action game centered on the dream of flight. Players guide birds through the Alpine scenery, riding the wind from peak to peak while competing for Aurora's Gem.

Gameplay

The game includes four game modes, including three multiplayer disciplines and a single-player challenge mode. Local asymmetric multiplayer supports up to five players, with the Wii U GamePad player taking on a special role in two disciplines. The GamePad is passed between rounds so each participant can play as the special player.

The single-player challenges focus on racing against the clock while avoiding falling rocks, snow, lightning, gusts of wind, waterfalls, and icicles. Online and local high scores track performance.
