Evaluation

Wing of Darkness launched on June 2, 2021. The developer posted two updates shortly after launch: a patch announcement on June 8, 2021 outlining planned shooting improvements and a new difficulty level, followed by the Version 1.03 patch on June 29, 2021, which delivered both of those promised changes — gameplay balance improvements and the new Paradox difficulty level. The June 29 patch note also acknowledged a delay in "certain content from the original announcement" and expressed intent to continue improving the experience, but no specific future content was named or promised beyond what was already delivered. There have been no developer communications of any kind since June 29, 2021. The store description describes a complete, self-contained game with a fixed story, two protagonists, and no mention of ongoing content, seasons, or planned expansions. There are no unreleased DLC listings. The game appears to have launched as a finished product and received a single post-launch polish pass, after which development activity ceased entirely.

About this game

Story
Wars between nations are no longer conflicts between people; rather, they have become struggles for survival as humanity fights an all-new enemy.
Unidentified flying objects referred to as Blankers have suddenly appeared, and the only weapon powerful enough to defeat them is the Held System.
Only a small number of exceptional young women are capable of operating Held Systems, and they have become known as Frauleins.
Frauleins are now humanity’s last hope… If we don’t fight, humanity is doomed.
But fighting comes with a price that some may not be prepared to pay...

About the Game
An all-new breed of aerial shooting game, Wing of Darkness is comprised of a number of key elements that set it apart from others in the same genre.
This high-speed 3D shooting game allows players to experience exhilarating battles in the sky, as well as a series of cutscenes depicting the growth of the main characters throughout the story.

Shooting
Experience the thrill of flight with user-friendly controls, in any direction. Even if you run out of ammo, it automatically restores itself over time. Choose from a wide array of high-tech weapons to combat powerful enemies without having to worry about conserving ammunition. With the addition of some futuristic elements, players can experience combat like never before.


Cutscenes
Cutscenes sandwich the combat scenes, driving the plot forward.
The two main characters (voiced by well-known Japanese voice actresses) tell their own stories in order to give the player insight into the past.
The narrative alternates between the game’s two heroines, Klara and Erika.
Players can watch the mystery of Blankers and Frauleins unfold from their perspective.
