Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0/day in the week to Aug 8 → 0.14/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Petty cool and fun, wish there was a better way to respond to getting stitched up though, even with maneuverability upgrades the movement feels real limited
Hella fun but does have some minor issues. It's fast, it's fun, and it reminds me a lot of Ace Combat. The game is basically just one long fight to see how long you can last like the old retro-arcade games. And the game gives you plenty of targets that go up in lethality as you play from weak Viper jets that can go down in one missile to aggressive space ships with missiles to spare. This isn't a game you play to see the end of a story (btw there's no story, it's just ALL gameplay) this is a game you play to get the top score on. And I love it. That said, there are a few minor issues with the game. For one, you have a lives system, if you take too much damage, you will lose a life. You can mitigate this by, well, either upgrading your jet or getting gud but I did notice that no where on the HUD did it remind you how many lives you still had. Now, you COULD argue that this encourages the player not to play recklessly, but you could also argue the opposite for it too considering if we can't see how many times we're allowed to mess up, we'll forget how we've messed up already and die before we realize we're out of lives. There's also kind of an issue where enemy missiles have a tendency to be inconsistently accurate. Some enemy missiles you can strafe around without worry, others will be on you like bloodhounds. It wouldn't be so bad if maybe we had unique target indicators to tell which were threats and which weren't, but since all missiles have the same indicator, you don't have much choice but to treat them all like a threat. And another gripe I have, the game does not tell you when you're low on health. I mean sure, it's there on your HUD but most other fighter jet games have an alarm or something that goes off to warn you that you're in serious danger and need to start playing more cautiously. Top Dog, for whatever reason, doesn't have that. And in a super-fast paced game, you need to keep your eyes on the ball so having to check every time you cut it close how much health you have is uhh... not what I would call good game design. Graphically, the game is nothing to write home about, but that's no big deal. This game was designed first and foremost to be fun and they accomplished that with flying colours. I do however don't care much for the music (of which as far as I've played only really plays on the main menu). There's also no customisation, I guess due to the fact that some of the upgrades to change the look of your jet. Which is fair enough. Overall, 9/10. Super solid game with some minor but otherwise easy-to-get-around issues.

Fantastic game worth every penny, I just hope for eventual meta progression and/or skins to unlock through challenges, like beating higher difficulties. But either way, this game is worth it.
Just tried this before bed. 1st impressions are good: [b]we've all wanted a fast arcade flight sim that jumps you into the action. this does that.[/b] Would I like more player options, like a difficulty setting? Yes Would I like a rogue-lite upgrade system instead of pure roguelike? Yes Would I like a separate missile button, since I'm using a flightstick? Yes But the 15min I've played has already beat out 90% of the flight sims in my steam library for pure fun factor. Why do so many flight sims fail? (old games used to be so good) There are the: absolute realism controls- need a textbook, use 100% of the keys on your keyboard games. I don't need a 2nd job Absolute 'realism' ammo - except irl, a squadron hits a base, not 1 person trying to stretch ammo between 20 or 30 targets. I don't want to repeated missions over and over again because I missed 2 shots. or the flight controls so bad, it doesn't even feel like flying drunk or the spend an hour planning and mapping the mission or the Fly around empty maps for 45min before a 30s encounter. or even worse - babysit your speed and fly through hoops and fails zones for 45min before a 30s encounter So this just skips all that and starts you in the air blasting things away, with more things coming at you fast, infinite machine guns and missiles that regenerate. The very thing most people want, but most games fail to deliver. So want more or not, this game is a win right out of the gate. The controls are simple. If you care about leaderboards, then mouse is obvious, but I play for fun, so flightstick it is. But it's through steam, so I need to finagle steams controls to allow me to use the closest buttons for high speed combat. Had this issue with steam hotas input before. It treats it like a controller with far fewer buttons, so you have to make it so the buttons you want show up to steam as the lowest button numbers. But don't hate on steam too much for that. because the alternative is no hotas, and having to map it like a gamepad.
This is a fantastically simple game that looks great and gives you that twitchy arcade vibe. Plays great with a controller or even a HOTAS for added fun. Controls couldn't be simpler which makes you feel like a GOD when using a hotas.
会出座舱和HUD视角吗? Will there be a cockpit view and HUD view?
Love the control scheme, easy to pick up and learn how to play.
Very simple and to the point, quickly scales in difficulty the more you play it, lots of fun, reminded me of House of the Dying Sun.
its really fun and I can play a few rounds here and there without having to commit too much time. On the other foot it is very easy to lock in for a couple hours trying to beat my last score. A must have game if you were a fan of the ace combat series or other such games.
This game is so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fun... You know what would make it even more fun? A cheats menu. Also I kinda wish I could see my health and life count.
