Eagles of World War 2

I don't wanna leave a negative review for this game. It's a well made game. Decent graphics, shooting down planes feels good, bosses, some dialogue, upgrades (?!?), cool I'm enjoying it! But then I realize by stage 2 the game throws absolutely everything to the wall as far as enemies, bullet patterns, realizing planes that I've shot down can still shoot at me, and more planes and bullet patterns. Its absolutely insane. I'm playing on normal and it feels like I'm playing very hard or mania mode. Holy $hit!!! And that's why I kinda feel bad. The structure and bones are really good!!! It just needs a bit more polish in the difficulty department and I could forgive all the other little things that bother me like how bad and unfilling the sound effects for shooting down the planes are. Or how the game will continue on after a boss but later in it just aggressively cuts to a level end bonus screen. I know this is from a single dev and they do this game when time is available but as a gamer I tell ya it feels like you really got something here and it just needs a few more nips and tucks to become a shiny gem. If that happens I'll rebuy.

Can't believe this game was made by a solo developer. Power ups are so satisfying and I love the way the enemy planes explode into pieces with smoke trails lingering on the play field. Some dialogue that you just can't skip but it doesn't hinder the experience too much as they are only short pieces of interactions here and there. Other than that I have nothing to complain about. Great shooter for the price and a good distraction for a few hours.

I didn't expect this game to be as good or deep as it is. Gameplay is solid and the upgrade system / power ups are quality. A really good / cheap game, don't skip this if you are an arcade shooter fan.

Played the 2 player mode with my son, 1 joypad and keyboard / mouse. Very enjoyable and a very smooth experience on our gaming pc. Turned on the grid scanlines and it made the game feel very modern retro. Loved it

Brilliant shmup in the style of 1943 but with stylised modern graphics, loads of power ups and a good upgrade system. This game doesn't hold your hand and other than a loading screen which displays the controls that is it in terms of tutorials. You have to learn how to play this game as go. Refreshing change to just get straight into the action. There are some unskippable dialogue sections and the end level bonus takes a while to roll through but these are actually minor gripes and a chance to catch your breath. Don't rush your upgrade choices, give them some thought or you'll find yourself running into a game over message ;-) Overall a shockingly good game for the low cost.

I cant believe how good this game is for the price. Awesome old school shooter action with a nice stylised 3D graphics. All the plane models look accurate and the upgrade system offers lots of depth for strategy and replay value. Soundtrack to this game is also banging. A hidden gem on steam!
