Bad. Very bad. There's no hope of my complaints being change with how old this game is. While the "casual" mode automatically gives you every single upgrade to begin with... At start on hardcore mode you can shoot down one enemy ship before you run out of ammo and/or fuel. The landing strip - if you take off and need to turn around immediately you'll likely be forced to land again. Another gripe with the landing strip is that they clearly haven't cleared the trees right next to it so you have a good chance to crash if you try to land and miss. You don't have a choice which way you take off. The menu is un-user-friendly, for instance you can't access options in game. You're expected to kill ground troops with a gun which is very hard since you are considered to have "crashed" if you come within the lower 1/6 of the screen, not to mention you have to point down at such an angle it's almost impossible to pull up before the game arbitrarily says you've crashed.9 found this helpful
good game, similar to wings of fury on amiga2 found this helpful
this game is fun
Even 12 years after its release, it is still a good game. Sure, it have its flaws ("While the "casual" mode automatically gives you every single upgrade to begin with... At start on hardcore mode you can shoot down one enemy ship before you run out of ammo and/or fuel."). But it definitely worth to buy (on sale).
This game is very, very entertaining, despite what the negative reviews say. It's unique, simple, and just has a certain feel about it that brings back memories of games like TU-46 and Wings of Fury. You can also download a demo version(Not from Steam) if you're unsure.
While very difficult to play, this is a fun game. It's just old. It's nice casual quick fun.
