A gem in the rough.

There are three types of people, those who have completed one or more Ace Combat style games, those who haven't and those who play sims. One group will understand what Project Wingman (PW) is all about and will fall in love with it, warts and all. This game has made me do what no other has in the past thirty years or so... re-play it on the higher difficulties. And in quick order too. This game has its flaws, but if you are anything like me then you may find that the enjoyment on offer will more than mask most of the flaws to the point of not even noticing them. The next group's exposure to Ace Combat is at best limited to just knowing that it exists. They may end up being more critical of PW's design choices... like the lack of checkpoints. The lack of checkpoints, to me is not an issue. Some reviews mention overly long missions. I say that they don't feel long enough, especially when you pick a suitable plane and loadout for the mission at hand. Then there's the sim group, who usually end up harping on about the game's physics. PW is all about fighting to get your sights on the target while dodging dozens of missiles simultaneously while constantly riding your plane's stall speed. Contrary to some comments, I HAVE seen my AI allies take down aces... and airships and plenty planes and ground targets. This game is far from perfect... the devs say as much in their post credits messages. PW's dev team is three people, not counting the voice tallent. Let that sink in. One designer/artist/programmer, one writer/producer and one composer. Oh, yes, that reminds me. You buy this game and I guarantee that you will end up buying the soundtrack. PW's configurability is extensive and from first launch it detected my homebrewed HID compliant joystick with no problem. Some people with various expensive HOTAS setups report problems, others with the exact same hardware report no issues.

Perfect Game for PS2 Era Ace Combat Fans

The game has just about everything a PS2 Era Ace Combat fan could want and more. The AI is greatly improved compared to its Ace Combat counterparts (Seeming to be more capable at dogfighting as well as dodging missiles) when it comes to maneuvering you have the same theoretical mobility as the AI (It's just up to skill, you WILL not have the same weaponry as some of the bosses considering it'd be impossible to handle all that simultaneously as a single person). It is more comparable to PS2 era games than it is to AC7 but that isn't a bad thing. Gunfighting is WAY more viable and way more fun than previous AC games, in many situations being better than missiles due to the AI's better missile dodging capabilities Compared to AC7 they are in the same realm but they both have slightly different things to offer so personally I wouldn't get one or the other but if you have to make a choice I'd choose Project Wingman for price (I would advise getting both though) Only issue I found was that it was lacking in the number of aircraft. It has a suitable amount of aircraft (enough to fit pretty much every NECESSARY niche but it does not compare to even AC04 when it comes to aircraft. Although they may add more later who knows) Airships done right, whereas in Ace Combat so often Airships are just a gimmick boss, in this game Airships are a whole new class of enemy (and ally) that shows up relatively frequently changing the pace of the game. One of the most notable levels I found was early on Uphill Every Way where you see bombers in actual use (As opposed to the typical "Kill me" bombers you see in the first mission of every Ace Combat game). Mixed unit tactics and all I haven't tried the conquest yet but it seems like a good way to stretch the game out Other than that, you can replay missions in Free Missions with a multitude of fun multipliers to change up the game. Such a small thing that makes the game that much more interesting

Highly recommended

As a long time fan of Ace Combat going back to the PS1 era, I absolutely love Project Wingman. Nice graphics, fun gameplay and an interesting story. This is a AAA game at a budget price! I am proud to have been a part of the Kickstarter program for this game.

Amazing for AC fans and non fans

I bought the game since I've been wanting to go back to the blue (Orange) sky. While originally I thought this would be a simple substitute for AC this game has blown my expectations out of the water. With a difficulty that is just right for veterans in hard and good for people who want an introduction on normal, even massive challenge if you wanna go for mercenary. Feels in the spirit of AC but at the same time different to the point on how missiles feel when they are behind you. Amazing music that fits the AO of each mission and make either pump or feel the pressure of the events unfolding in front of you. And even then we also have the conquest mode a nice extra piece for those who want more replay value but don't feel like re doing the campaign right away. A rougelike mode that is bound to keep you busy for a long time. One of the best value for money purchases I've done in years.
