Project Wingman Composer Opens Up About Scoring a Unique Aerial Combat Game in New ‘Making of’ Video
Historically speaking, there’s pretty much never been a shortage of video games about flying and/or aerial warfare. Ever since Ultimate Air Combat launched for the NES in 1992, flying a plane (or spaceship, or helicopter) and shooting down other pilots has been a staple in the gaming world, with a few titles even coming to arcades and other consoles before that.

The game is built around smooth and enjoyable gameplay rather than going in-depth about every little...
