redAces pre-alpha demo
A downloadable game for Windows
Side-view multiplayer dogfight game in Soviet dieselpunk setting with fun arcady physics, interactive levels and madskillz gameplay.
Simple and easy to pick plane controls (throttle and pitch) allow for a rich emergent flight play with a variety of tricks and maneuvers.
Harpoon allows players to capture and swing interactive game objects as well as other player's planes (akin to Half Life's gravity gun or the rope in Worms games), adding more expressive ways to evade and attack both on the plane and on foot.

works for 32x bits?
Hi. 64x only
Oh.
I really like the game. Very nice is the flying system, which is very comfortable and offers many ways to fight the enemy and game itself is very entertaining. Only problems I see at the moment are: 1) often crashes 2) game performance - it runs smoothly only on my 970gtx graphic card. Standard laptop with integrated graphic card run only at 10 fps. I think that this game should not be such resource consumer. But I believe, this can be fixed and I would definitelly buy the final product.
This game needs an active and numerous userbase to function properly, like Forts.
It is promising, but not ready in its current state, mainly due to the lack of clear objects to pursue.
The art style is beautiful, but without a tutorial to effectively introduce a player to the gameplay, it is unlikely that anyone will enjoy the experience.
What I really founded interesting, is the flying system. It is easy to understand, but it can sustain complex moves and attacks.
The UI is ok, maybe the buttons are a little hard to see, especially with the not strong color difference between the charging bar and its grey background.
I cannot further critique a game that is still in an alpha state. Develop a great tutorial with scripted missions to help the player handle the basics of the gameplay, and keep working hard like you are already doing.
Bye :)
