AirAttack HD vs Jamestown: Legend Of The Lost Colony
AirAttack HD
AirAttack HD is an award-winning vertically-scrolling, top-down arcade shoot-'em-up where you get to assume the role of an up-and-coming ace pilot. Featuring an intense, bullet-hell-like gameplay, you'll get to fight against a wide variety of enemies while piloting a nice selection of unique aircrafts which you upgrade and customize to your liking as well. The game is a mainly single-player game and as such, it offers plenty of exciting missions for you to embark on, each of which has 3 difficulty modes. Aside from campaign missions, there are even arcade and survival modes for you to truly put your skills to the test.What makes AirAttack such a popular game though is not only because of its real-time physics and destructible environments, but also because of its intuitive combat which is delivered through a whopping 7 control types - Touch, Relative, Tilt, Joypad, Mouse, Keyboard, and Gamepad. Having a World War theme helps a lot as well!
AirAttack HD is a somewhat older mobile game though and as such, its graphics might not be comparable to its latest sequel, AirAttack 2, but overall, the original AirAttack is still a very entertaining game to play and it manages to hold up to today's arcade standards.
Jamestown: Legend Of The Lost Colony
Jamestown: Legend Of The Lost Colony is a neo-classical, steampunk-themed top-down shooter that's set on 17th-century British Colonial Mars. The gameplay is as intense as any other bulletstorm-styled arcade games but the enjoyment is definitely ramped up with its 4-player co-op mode. Unlike other games where players in a team have a shared health pool, this game not only separates each player's health bars but also allow surviving players to resurrect dead players on the same team. So, this game gives meaning to sacrifices that other team members can make just so at least one member of the team can survive the round.Of course, aside from the unique gameplay, Jamestown: Legend Of The Lost Colony also has tons of fun levels, and even a "Gauntlet" mode which features its 1996 graphics. There are many achievements for you to collect and over 20 challenging bonus levels that will truly put your skills to the test.
