Alliance Peacefighter

This feels like the classic Wing Commander experience. Challenging dogfights, simple cinematics between missions, really tight satisfying combat sequence. Developer is active and fixing bugs, very responsive to observations or complaints. A little pricey but it really scratches the itch better than buying 3 other $9 games that don't quite deliver.

campagna non lunghissima ma rigiocabile, tutto sommato. mi ha divertito molto ed è tutto molto chiaro. fantastico in vr.

Played on normal. Stick + keyboard. Ran well. I had a few crashes but I also noticed I was playing on an older version so maybe that's fixed already. Crashes never impeded my progress. Design reminds me of Wing Commander. Massive enemy spam reminds me of Wing Commander Prophecy specifically. I enjoyed the game. Story was interesting and had a few twists and turns along the way. Flying was solid and combat enjoyable, in the way that enemy horde combat sims are. I suppose it's worth noting that you only fly one ship in this game and that ship has only one loadout. This didn't bother me though. What's here is good and fun to fly, so I'm happy. This game also doesn't have any way to command your wingmen. Not a problem with the way missions are designed here. Missions themselves were fun. Leaned a bit more into "kill everything" rather than tactical bomber priorisation, at least on normal. I mean I did try to prioritise bombers when such were on the field, but I can't say I noticed much of an effect on the overall flow of the battle. Environments were beautiful and sometimes you were fighting in asteroid fields so you couldn't just blindly drift willynilly. I didn't count my playtime but I'm guessing somewhare around or over 10 hours. Eager to see how much more Urban Logic will make of this setting.

I reallly enjoyed this. The gameplay is simple but fun, dogfighting with some lateral and vertical thrust added in. The ships handle well, it's pretty (enough), it's lightweight and runs well. You get into the action very quickly and the missions aren't excessively long, which makes it a great game to pick up and play whenever you like. The story is fine. Some minor issues: the enemies are not particularly difficult, and the "bumper cars" physics of running into other ships looks and feels kind of ... silly. But my most serious complaint is about the music, which is flat out terrible. The best tracks are repeititive, uninspired and incredibly simple, while the worst are too irritating to even listen to (I had to turn them of, which is something I almost never do).

Thoroughly enjoying this game so far, lovely cartoony graphics that are reminiscent of Star Fox with gameplay like a modern version of the early wing commander games. It runs beautifully on my steam deck on default settings, and scales up nicely to my more powerful desktop rig. Like many people I agree that speech would help to add atmosphere, maybe in a later update, or even paid dlc like Wing Commander? Even without this, a lovely space combat game, a genre that may be out of fashion but is very close to my heart.

Good looking and fun indie space shooter. 22 missions (last one is only dialogue) of good space fights. I did end up bumping the difficulty down to easy as I found it annoying that you only get 5 rockets but it takes 2 to take down a heavy fighter, there are rocket resupplies but they are scare and only when defending your ally frigate. Nice feature to be able to divert power at will between speed - shields - guns, along with the direction of the shield energy on your ship.

Hat was von Elite mit dem Focus auf die Action. Reine Weltraum Ballerei wie damals schon bei Wingcommander ganz wie früher. Mich hat es bisher gut unterhalten
