It's a little too bare-bones and arcadey for my tastes, but not a bad game by any means. The fighter jet models look nice for what you had to work with, and the game mechanics are smooth. Overall I'd say you did a decent job with this.

You are on control of a high performance F18 Hornet fighter jet. From a carrier launch you face off against a non stop barrage of enemy fighters, watch your back and dogfight your way to the top. Pick up powerups as they appear and keep a close watch on your fuel gauge.
Very well done
I loved it, smooth game play, fun aspect of dog fights, (the air kind not the Michael Vick kind) and there was still a challenge with making sure you can find power ups, complete the mission, and not die or run out of gas. You got a 5/5 and a 9/10 from me and I want to be clear exactly why I took one point away, the stealth mission was a half point ding, flying blind with nothing to even point you in the right direction was not something I was happy with and also a half point off for the fact that every time I failed one mission I had to start at mission 1 all over again, there was no save feature. I do think the dog fights would be amazing in a multiplayer mode so thats something I would say look into for your next game or an update to this. overall great game, just a few things that made me grow a few gray hairs lol Keep up the good work!
Pretty damn good
I like how in this game, I actually had to use some elements of dogfighting. Now, I'm not going to go into the details of all of them. The graphics were really good, the controls were fine. I just wish the enemies were a bit more maneuverable and smarter, and/or an option to change the difficulty. I found that the only trouble I had was not getting killed by the enemies, but trying to keep an eye on the dogfight, AND on the map so that I know when to start rushing to some fuel. Half the time when I rush to the fuel, it disappears before I can reach it. I think they should have a bit more time before they disappear.
The missiles were a little bit TOO accurate. I think that they shouldn't be fail proof, because you can even hit someone BEHIND you with a missile. Maybe, you can make the missiles only rotate at a certain rate to turn to a hostile, so that you actually stand a chance at dodging them. Finally, one word
ONLINE MODE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wait....I think that was 2.........huh.....oh well.
All in all, this is a KICKASS GAME. I have been looking all over for a game like this, and I have finally found one. I give this a 5/5.
Dude!
This is awesome!
Sweet!
Really easy to get into with smooth controls.
I hope to see more! (I believe it was stated before somewhere, online would be awesome)
