Phone Drone Show
Every guest’s phone launches a drone that writes your names in the sky. No hardware and no vendor.
Free 2-hour trial, no sign-up: you host on this device, friends play on their phones, the big screen runs in any browser. Simulated AI in the trial; real AI at your event.
The moment it is built for: Every phone launches one glowing drone off a lake jetty onto the big screen; the room votes a shape, and at form-up every drone flies into it while each phone reads which part it made.

How Phone Drone Show plays
On their phones
Scan the QR and tap once to launch a drone over the lake, vote for the shape, and watch the swarm form it on the big screen. Each phone then reads which part of the shape it made.
On the host console
Sets the shapes the room votes between, such as the couple’s monogram, the company logo, a heart or the date, and runs the moment from the console.
On the big screen
Glowing drones lifting off a lake jetty, then every drone flying into the winning shape in one flight, doubled by the lake.
How it ends: The shape holds in the sky. A cue card can hand off to a real drone show if you are booking one.
The full description from the games team
A stage moment for weddings, award nights and launches. Guests scan a QR and tap once: their phone becomes a glowing drone lifting off a lake jetty on the big screen. The room votes a shape (the couple’s monogram or the company logo, a heart, the date); at form-up every drone flies into it in one flight, the lake doubles it, and each phone reads which part of the shape it made. No hardware and no vendor: a cue card can hand off to a real drone show.

The story in the demo
Raj & Simran, sangeet night at the lake palace. Pops counts teen, do, ek; Simran picked the shapes; Raj hums on the mandolin.
Raj, Simran, Bauji and the rest are an illustrated sample cast, not real people. At your event the same game carries your own names and photos.
