Some games are better off with no elaborate plots or back stories. Shooter games are better when they are pretty straight forward with no distracting instructions or stories that pop up as you go along the way. Wingstar is a shooters game that is straight forward. It can provide a gamer with many, many hours of gaming fun without any of the fancy distractions that other games employ. You enjoy Wingstar for its game play, not because of some fancy tricks. Wingstar was created by a small company from Denmark- Interactive Vision.
Wingstar is a sci-fi action game that is fast-paced and entertaining. It is a straight up shooters game that has a futuristic look and feel to it. It was released in the mid-90s so understandably the graphics are not as refined and as beautiful as the graphics of games that were released later on. Still because of the good game play, you’ll easily forgive the shortcoming when it comes to graphics and sounds. The game is pretty colorful and you’ll easily recognize and see enemy aircrafts so the graphics works fine for the game.
Charged with a crime against the space empire that you did not commit, you are given only two choices- spend the rest of your life in the colony
or become a part of the empire’s quest to conquer other planets. Of course, you choose to become a warrior for the empire. At the start of the game you will be given a choice what ship to fly but the ships function pretty much the same way. Choosing one over the other really won’t have any effect on how you play the game.
This is a top-down scrolling game that will have you flying a space craft through different levels and shooting at enemies. Just like most other shooting games, the enemies will come at you from different directions and flying at different patters. You should successfully eliminate them by shooting at them or you can also avoid them by moving your space craft to different directions.
As you go along the game, you will be earning points for the enemies you hit and you will also earn power-ups that will help you improve your ship’s firepower therefore helping you earn more points and do better at the game.
I suggest you download this game now if you’re into shooter games like Galaga and such, you will truly enjoy this game.
