The visuals are very impressive (particularly the explosions), but a special shout out also has to go to the audio design in Project Wingman. You’re not alone though – you do have some wingmen by your side to help take them down. Once you get a missile lock, it doesn’t necessarily mean your missile will hit, they can do evasive maneuvers as well as you can.
It’s exhilarating stuff, with your climactic battle with the bombers effectively feeling like a boss fight.Īll of the missions feature a nice variety of enemies (and bombers) to deal with and the air-based enemies in particular can offer a real challenge to take down. They’re all great fun, but Chainlink (the multi-role mission) offers the most fun and variety, with you starting high in the sky for some air-to-air combat, switching to a ground assault mid-mission then attempting to take down heavily armed bombers for the finale. There are three missions available in Project Wingman’s Kickstarter build – an anti-air mission, a facility assault mission and a multi-role mission. It also features multiple difficulty levels for those who prefer a little more realism and challenge (though it’s still very much an arcade experience rather than a full on sim).
The current build of Project Wingman features three pilotable fighter jets (the SV-37, Sk.27 and the F/E-18), each with customizable loadouts of rockets and bombs.
The only thing lacking in the previous build was mission variety, but thankfully the dev has addressed that issue and then some… We first featured Project Wingman on Alpha Beta Gamer last month and found it to be a gorgeous looking air combat game with epic dogfights and easily accessible gameplay. Project Wingman is an easily accessible and spectacle filled indie air combat game that puts most mainstream air combat games to shame.
