Rebel Wings is a multiplayer arcade airplane shooter. Conquer the skies with an unusual arsenal of weapons and a gravity-defying airplane!

Will you paint the skies red with the flak cannon? Disintegrate your opponents with the grinder? Or will you choose the devastating destruction of the bomber?

Rebel Wings offers a classic arcade experience with some unconventional mechanics. Designed with the mouse in mind, just aim where you want to go, apply your thrusters and blast away! Don't like your mouse? No worries, use a controller instead (but lose your free drink hand).

Easy controls mixed with skillful game play makes Rebel Wings an arena classic!

Key features:

Fast-paced online PvP action
Simple controls - play with just the mouse or a gamepad
Stylized flat-shaded look
Battle with bots to hone your skills

Patch #3 - Bombastic

Hey!
The new patch for Rebel Wings has just been released. We have managed to squeeze in a lot of smaller stuff as well as a couple of bigger things.

First off, r1sc has been hard at work creating a new airplane model - the Bomber! Sleek and stealthy it slices through the air spreading impending doom on its foes.

Secondly, the windswept desert landscape in "Dunes" has gotten some attention and we've added a couple of landmarks to liven it up.

Here's the patch notes:

Rebel Wings 0.9.5875

New: The Bomber makes its first appearance in Rebel Wings!
New: Polished the Dunes map.
New: Added a setting to control the "Screen Shake" effect.
New: Added a subtle button click sound in the menu.
Fix: The chat window fades out gradually when not focused.
Fix: The chat window is now properly cleared between games.
Fix: Auto spawn doesn't take focus from chat input.
Fix: Auto spawn checkbox focused only if using gamepad.
Fix: Team balance in TDM works a bit better.
Fix: The respawn timer now resets correctly on all players between rounds.

There are some known issues that we have found while testing the game:

Volume sliders in the Settings menu stops working after you have played a game. Restart is required.
The team assignment that you see in the lobby might not match the actual team that you're assigned to in-game.

We would like to thank everyone that participated in the "Play vs. Devs" session last week, it was a lot of fun and very interesting to hear your comments on the game. Hopefully we'll be able to plan a new session soon - keep your eyes peeled to the Announcement section!

Over and out...
