I see someone's played ace combat (or at least stole some assets)
Your plane is Cipher's f-15
The music is AC Assault horizon's theme played on a 30 sec loop
The laser plane's the arc bird
The 'flying fortress' is the xb-07
The game it self is basic, just an endless shoot 'em up with randomly spawning enemies. Low score for low effort

Couldn't do more than a 3/5 and here is why ...

While the game play worked alright, it really seemed to lack any depth. There are no levels, no goals, just a never ending flight as far as I can tell and I killed 6 or 7 of those flying fortresses.

The only 'power up' available is an armor restoring boost you get for killing the FF. It's like a bad version of Raiden, a little more updated graphics but worse game play.

My advice is to create levels of increasing difficulty. Add in some way to power up your plane. Maybe a hangar you go back to between levels or even just various weapons upgrades that drop randomly in game. If you want to go all out, create missions to accomplish this goal of saving your country, use the hangar for upgrades, maybe you can purchase new planes down the road, get money for kills, add in achievements.

after careful consideration i could only give you a 2/5.

everything worked well as for the game play; smooth and easy mobility, but...there are a couple things that this game is missing and would need to make it a night and day difference.

1) the smoke trails from the jet stick around for too long after you move.

2) power ups, as far as i could see i didn't see any and i played for a good 10 min.

3) CHECK POINTS...it is really annoying when you play a game and progress far but after you die you have to start all over.

fix these problems and you'll have a killer game!

Mute-button?

explosion is catchy.
