Loads of arcade style fun!!!

This is simply the best third person flight sim I've ever played. And I've played everything from Star Blazer to Thexder on the Apple proDOS platforms.
Hours and hours of fun, and you can save your game at any point so you don't have to worry about running out of quarters! ;-)
Seriously, if you like a fast paced video game, this is the one for you.
Cheers! And happy flying!

Candy-coated Classic Arcade Yumminess

Wingnuts 2 is a classic top-down shooter in the spirit of Time Pilot (Does anyone else remember that one?). Included are the nonsensical mid-flight upgrades we've come to expect and the insanely armored "boss" units. The graphics are, of course, updated, because that's what developers do with graphics, and they look rather nice. The voice acting is amusing (sometimes groan-worthy), though the one-liners get repetitive.

Which brings me to the primary complaint about this game -- along with all the classic arcade goodness comes the classic arcade repetition. There's only so much you can do in a top-down shooter. You fly around and shoot things and bomb them. No, this isn't Asteroids, and it can be quite challenging on the harder settings, but there's only so much creativity that can be brought to flying around and shooting down aircraft. It's simply the nature of the genre (What, no Kafkaesque plotline!?).

Ultimately, this is game that doesn't take itself too seriously and is simply a fun way to pass some time. Wingnuts 2 is definitely not perfect, but if you like mind-numbing hand/eye coordination exercises like the ones we enjoyed in the '80s ... it doesn't get much better than this.
