Our take on Crisis Wing
Crisis Wing follows the familiar vertical shooter format of staged combat, but adds distinct challenge modes alongside the main run. Practice Mode also offers infinite lives, shifting practice away from the usual pressure of limited attempts.
What is Crisis Wing?
Crisis Wing is a vertically scrolling arcade shooter with seven stages, each featuring distinct enemies and a boss.
Players pilot a ship, upgrade it with three weapons and special sub-weapons, and can play alone or with a friend in local co-op. Additional modes include Boss Rush, Score Attack, and Practice Mode, where infinite lives are available. CRT filters can be enabled for a retro display effect. The game uses 16-bit-style visuals and a soundtrack described as FM music.
