Tailgunner

About

Tailgunner is a fast-paced arcade shooter that puts you in the back of a plane, armed with a machine gun and a whole lot of incoming threats. Your goal is simple: move your crosshair to blast enemy planes before they crash into your cockpit. The enemy waves start slow but quickly overwhelm, testing your reflexes as you juggle multiple targets. There's no fancy power-ups or story, just raw, chaotic shooting where split-second timing keeps you alive. What sticks out is how brutal and addictive this simplicity becomes. With no slowdown or respawns, every missed shot feels like a death sentence. Despite its age, the core loop holds up as a pure test of focus and aim. A single-player relic that still cracks under pressure after decades.
