Cons
Con Dialog boxes tend to be removed fast
With any mobile game, players are going to be touching the screen for input being a constant action. When dialog boxes are automatically removed from a simple screen press there is a high chance that the box will disappear before the player has read it as they were already touching the screen when the box cropped up.
Con Cannot use ArrayAccess
The fact that it uses static methods means that it's impossible for Flight to make use of ArrayAccess, which in turns means that it cannot inject dependencies easily.
