The demo is promising, but for me, the game keeps crashing whenever I try to run a demo level, even when I set the graphics settings as low as they can go.
I'm Looking forward to the full game. I'm excited for what story you came up with and wonder if you're going to have an enemy ace though out the campaign. I see heavy inspiration from Ace Combat while making it your own game. All in all I'm sure to get it and look forward to flying either the F-14 or F-15.
Brilliant fun, just what i was looking for, and i look forward to the full development, good luck raising the rest of the funds that you still need guys, full respect to you all who are working on this.
so far that i have played, which obviously is the demo lol, it works just fine, after i worked out how to set up the controls to work just with the keyboard, the graphics are wonderful and the action on the aircrafts are great, im finding the 3 quite easy to fly too.
again im rubbing my hand whilst waiting for it to be published, and will be tracking it...
With the addition of Humble Games coming on board and picking up the slack, I'm actually (somewhat) hopeful that Project Wingman will finally be released "this summer". That's about the best news I've heard yet. So now we wait...again.
Wow ...... Guys Salute you. Game is awesome, and it’s just an Alpha demo. Can’t wait to see the game in final build. Controls setting are really good and hope to see more options in final build.
Hi ! Thanks for the reply ! I found your game from a video review for VR titles and was suprised as the reviewer made it sound like he had played the game in VR already ! Looking forward to it :)
@tuomaspap I am the reviewer you may be mentioning. I played the game in VR using pc tools that simulated VR. Its not as good as the real thing but it was very close.
This demo is amazing for a demo. But, there are some things that I don't like. All of this is my personal opinion so just take it lightly. It doesn't mean that the game is bad or anything. The first thing that I don't like is there is no high g maneuver and post-stall maneuver. This makes the planes feel more sluggish, made the gameplay slower, and less fun. The second thing is that the clouds are not as good as Ace Combat 7. I feel that the clouds are there just for aesthetics and don't have a gameplay purpose like in Ace Combat 7. The clouds also feel bland because of the small size and not as fluffy as the one on Ace Combat 7. The last thing is the graphics. The graphics are not bad but the colors are just too warm for my taste. Also, the plane texture of this game is very flat with no details. There are no decals or markings or even emblems.
Now the good things about this game that I like over Ace Combat 7. The first thing is I like the way you choose your payload and weapons. You can bring more than one SP weapons depending on the weapons and the aircraft. The other thing is the FOV and how much better is it over Ace Combat 7. The last thing is that the EXPLOSIONS in this game are AMAZING, way better than Ace Combat 7 making this game feels more alive.
Please note that I am kinda new on this jet combat arcade kind of games. My first game of this genre is Ace Combat 7. But, I play war thunder, FSX, X-Plane, and all kind of flight simulator except DCS because I am too lazy to learn how each planes works and I don't have a HOTAS, I play with my PS4 controller.
In conclution, I still going to prefer Ace Combat 7 over this game. But hey, it is just a demo and a very old one so.... I don't know how will the released game will be. I hope that the story mode is going to be as good as Ace Combat 7. The biggest dealbreaker for me is that there is no high G maneuver and post stall maneuver. So I hope they will add it to the final game.
High-G/Post-Stall Maneuvers are confirmed to be in the final build half a year ago. Much of its updates are announced on the Project Wingman Discord.
Also, if you love Ace Combat 7 so much, I suggest you play all of the previous games (except Assault Horizon, Advance, Northern Wings, & Cross Rumble/Assault Horizon Legacy). Despite being the pinnacle of AC gameplay, AC7 leaves out a lot of older features that were good (massive battles in AC6, Wingman command in AC5 & Z, Wide selection of planes in AC5, etc.).
Also, AC7 has probably one of the weakest story in the series--due to its multiple change of project leads & an eventual rush in development (very evident in the Strider part of the story). Only AC6 has similar issues narratively. No doubt if Wingman sticks to its Mercenaries-type story, it'll do far better.
High-G exists only on 6 onwards, while Post-Stall exist on Assault Horizon (scripted) and 7 only.
That said, at least you can experience how AC originally plays out. Despite it feeling mechanically outdated, there are some minor details in its mechanism that AC7 purposely downgraded to entice AC7 players into fully using High-G, guided weaponry, & plane modifications.
Once you finish the PS2 trilogy, don't forget to check out the original PS1 trilogy too. Despite not having SP Weapons there, I guarantee you'll feel more sense of speed & a less Hollywood approach of storytelling in there--something we may see a return with RB-D2's Wingman.

I would like to know aswell.
Do we?
Send an email with the email you used to donate to wingmangamedev@gmail.com
We'll hook you up with a Steam key.
So, will we get steam key after game release?
Does it have a multiplayer component and, if not, is one planned?
Finally...after years of disappointment, Project Wingman will be released on December 1st! Hopefully it will be worth the wait.
4GB는 만만하게 볼 것이 아니다
60 FPS on medium to high settings on my setup, guys. Due to this, I think I'm getting it once it comes out for real.
Intel i5 4590 3.30Ghz
RAM: 8 GB
GeForce GTX 760 2GB

it runs just fine here but if you have old system and poor videocard it might get you in trouble yup
I love this game <3

OH MY GOD! I kinda like this one.

i though this was supposed to be VR supported?
The 0.4.5 Demo is very old, and was built right before the VR update. VR is going to be in the final build.
Hi ! Thanks for the reply ! I found your game from a video review for VR titles and was suprised as the reviewer made it sound like he had played the game in VR already ! Looking forward to it :)
Uh, it's not my game. It's RB-D2's. I'm just following into his development pretty deep.
I suggest you join his Discord server for more weekly/monthly updates.
hey MX, can you send me a Discord invite... CapStar362 #2210
It's right up there in RB-D2's Project Wingman main page.

Nice!
I am currently playing ace combat 4. I also have ace combat 5 ready. But... there are also no post stall maneuvers and high g turn on 4 :(
High-G exists only on 6 onwards, while Post-Stall exist on Assault Horizon (scripted) and 7 only.

will it be free ?
I don't think so, but won't have a expensive price, that I can be sure.
I love the game. Beautiful graphics, fun gamepla. I honestly like it more than Ace Combat. All I want from it now is to be able to play with the F16.
The lovely Viper is so under-appreciated in 2010s Ace Combat installments, that it now serves the same role as the old Tigers & Phantoms.
Hopefully Wingman changes this, especially with the highly customizable weapon racks.
I cant seem to open the game to play it I extracted the files and yeah
