PROZ:
+LOTSA BITZ N' GUBBINZ TO STIK ON YER JETZ
+PROPA ORKY 'EADBANGIN' SOUNTRAK
+PRETTY LEVULZ
+UP TO SIXTY GIT MULTIKRUMPIN'

KONZ:
-TOO MANY ESKORT MISSUNS
-LEVULZ TOO SMALL
-MUSIK LOOPZ TOO SHORT
-NOT ENUFF DAKKA

Dis game iz pretty gud.

PROZ:
- Propa Orky
- Lotsa dakka
- Realistik. Fer example, goin' fasta makez yer gunz cool down, cuz of da wind.
- A propa representashun of Ork Kultur. Dey even got da majik paintz wot make yer plane go fasta or be dead 'ard an' wot not
- All da boyz iz yellin "WAAAGH!!! DAKKADAKKADAKKA!!!" all da time. Never getz old.
- Da storee'z pretty gud. You find a majik humie 'ead wot tellz you about a sekret supa-weapon. Course, da humie 'ead'z lying, but you 'ave a zoggin' good time an' it turnz out da real supa-weapon wuz da gitz you krumped along da way. Or sumfing.

KONZ:
- You don't get ta hang out wiff da boyz frum Deff Skwadron, like Uzgob or Killboy.
- Mosta da weapons feel da same. Dere'z reg'lar dakka wot go "DAKKADAKKADAKKA" and dere'z hot dakka wot go "FREEEEEEM!!!!!" Dat'z it.
- I got no zoggin' idea wot da "Stealth" stat iz supposed ta do...
- Da AI iz really bad.
- Some of da levelz is too long, wiff no chek-pointz in da middle.

KONKLOOSHUN:
Yoo shud buy it, it'z not dat much teef.

A very arcade-y dog fighting game set in the Warhammer 40,000 Universe.

Pros:
-Perfect presentation. As a major fan of warhammer40k and as a predominately Ork player, the devs nailed the presentation. The soul in this game is spot on and has a ton of humor and character in the Orks and Grots.

-Loads of visual customization. Every equipment piece changes the way your jet looks visually and you have a wide variety of colors, clans, iconography, and glyphs to customize your fighter.

-Loads of customization for loadouts. There are many weapons and equipment for each of your fighters and you can customize it to fit your playstyle fairly well, from having tons of guns and shooting up your enemies to building a tank of a jet for ramming everything that moves (or doesn't move in the case of buildings you wanna blow up.)

-Orky customization. Yes, I know, another customization point, but this one is important: the color of your jet affects the stats on your jet. In 40k, Orks paint their weapons and equipment different colors because they believe that they have certain effects on them, and because they believe it does it actually does (example: red ones go fasta! vehicles painted red will indeed go faster.) This means that depending on the colors you choose, you gain stats depending on what it is.

-Good Controls. Both keyboard and mouse and controllers seem to work well. While they are not the greatest controls out of all the dog fighter games, they serve their purpose and keep the game fun in an arcadey way. The best way to describe them are responsive at the best but floaty at the worst.

-60 player multiplayer and sever browser. Multiplayer can have up to 60 players in a hosted game and its a deathmatch on who destroys the most jets. There is even the option to enable bots and change their difficulty to add more targets to shoot. The bots can even be enabled or disabled to count for score to win. Word of caution for hosts though: you need a strong pc to host that many people.

-Decent map selection, there are quite a few maps that have different looks (albiet most have an "Orky" takeover). Most are decent sized and used for both the multiplayer and single player campaign. In multiplayer the host can choose a specific map or have it on random selection. They visually look great for the budget this game is on and have an immense amount of character to them.

-Good music. Whoever composed the music did a fantastic job. It is a non-stop rock and roll metal train that has no breaks. Fits the atmosphere of the Orks perfectly.

Cons:
-Campaign progression is required to unlock certain weapons and gear. While you can gain all the teeth in the world in multiplayer matches, certain gear is locked behind campaign progression and require you to touch it a bit before being able to use it.

-Campaign can be hard. While its a relief that this game isn't a push over, it can be difficult at times and be frustrating to finish missions. This is doubled by the fact that missions do not have checkpoints or lives so dying or failing an objective can lead to repeating an entire mission. This would be less frustrating if the previous point of unlocking weapons and gear wasn't an issue. (EDIT: Campaign now has a 3 lives system, which helps lower the difficulty a lot. But you can turn it off and get bonus teef currency)

-ESCORT MISSIONS. The escort missions in the campaign are awful and can kill the motivation in playing the game very quickly. The battlewagons and drop ships you have to defend move painfully slow and cannot defend themselves very well which requires you to baby sit them constantly. Most of the missions in the campaign are alright and can be accomplished much easier by bringing the right gear, but escort missions are notoriously bad and should either be reworked or removed.

-Upgrades are easy to forget. It is highly advised after every campaign mission atleast to go to the hanger and check if you have upgrades, since they can be major game changers. It is very easy to press ahead to the next mission only to find a hard time due to being ill-equipped. Also there is a weapons and a gubbinz tab at the top of the screen. DO NOT FORGET TO EQUIP YOUR GUBBINZ! THEY GIVE REALLY BIG BOOSTS TO YOUR JETS!

-Limited menu graphic and visual options. While fully rebindable keys and sound volumes are decent, the graphics have very few options. There is also a fair amount of bloom and motion blur in this game so be wary. On the bright side, they do include colorblind options under it.

-Repetitive announcer and music. While I mentioned earlier that the characters and music are great, they have many repeating and looping elements that can become annoying after hearing it long enough. The grot announcer on escort missions can be particularly annoying when he comments on being shot at every chance he gets. The music is good and there is a good variety but it tends to be obvious where it loops and thus it can start turning repetitive if a mission drags on too long. Longer missions do atleast have some variety in those songs when certain points are reached atleast so this problem isn't as awful as it could be.

Bonus points:
-Other 40k races in the game. While Orks are the only playable race, other enemy types do appear in this game, such as the Adeptus Mechanicus early on in the campaign, and if you look at the pictures on the store page Necrons are also an enemy to face.

-Colorblind options. I mentioned it earlier but ill put this here just in case people miss it: yes there are colorblind options.

Overall I recommend this game if your a 40k fan or just want an arcadey dog fighting game to mess with.
I don't put much stock in number ratings, but people seem to like them so 7/10, would be an 8 if the escort missions didn't exist.

Dis is a roight gud kompyoota game, dis is! Da graffiks are propa flash, an' it'z abowt as orky as it getz!

8.5/10, needs more dakka

Not many arcadey shootaz out dere deze days. But dis won? Dis won's a GUD won. You gots everything you need for a gud 'n proper shoota game; lotza Dakkajets to choose from, gud maps, good 'n proper Orky dialogue, multiplayah so you can shoot y' friends, and a nice look to it. Dis won's a good game. Pay the Teef for it, you won't regret it.

You're here for a dumb and fun arcade dogfighting game, and that's exactly what you get. This game is an ork fan's dream, with all the dakka and wacky logic you could ever want.

Yes, red planes go faster. The game is true to ork color theory, and will show you numerically what bonuses your colors give.

It's what it needed to be, and not much more.

Orky aesthetic: great
Actual gameplay: unpleasant

Whoever thought it was a great idea to make an arcade dogfight shoot-em-up where every level is a square canyon full of obstructing debris was extremely wrong.
