About the Game

In the past, men piloted planes driven by propellers. The planes flew slowly but had big guns. The big guns were used against the enemy's numerous forces, turning them to scrap iron and flaming debris.

Take to the hostile skies in this gloriously retro shoot 'em up game inspired by the arcade classics of a better, bygone era.
