Aces of the Luftwaffe: Squadron

About

Aces of the Luftwaffe: Squadron is a vertical shooter where you control a squad of pilots dodging bullets and taking down enemy waves. Players choose from four wingmen each with distinct abilities and level up through skill trees to unlock new moves. The game focuses on fast-paced combat with power-ups and boss battles, offering local co-op for up to four players. Missions take place across fictional U.S. settings as you fight off a rogue German force in jet planes. The game stands out for its chaotic team-based action and retro-styled presentation. With 40+ missions and optional co-op support, it leans into arcadey difficulty and tight controls. Community reviews highlight the fun of playing with friends and the surprisingly detailed narrative. Released in 2017, it remains a niche choice for fans of old-school shooter mechanics with modern upgrades.
