Altitude review
I've left two of the games with a weekend discount on Steam downloading yesterday. The first was Booster Troopers, which I didn't like and already reviewed. The other is Altitude.
Altitude, by Nimbly Games, is a nice little side view plane game. It reminds me of Sopwith, which I played a lot back in the early 90s. Like Sopwith, you use little planes to shoot each other.
Altitude, however, has a bunch of different modes - simple/team deathmatch, an Air ball game, a mode where you bomb your enemies' base, and others. It also has different plane types, from the nimble to bombers. These planes can be customized with different boosters, too.
Stalling is a big part of the game. And it happens not only from flying up, but also from shooting some of the weapons, and bumping into deployable traps.
On the actual game, you have to earn planes and boosters by gaining experience (on the demo everything is available right away).
Overall, I found it great fun for the price (only US$5 this weekend on Steam), and bought it right way.
Highly recommended, for when you want some simple, quick fun.
