Steve Waldo coded the classic ‘Wings of Fury’ 8-bit game way back in 1987 for the Apple ][. You needed 128K, a finely tuned analog joystick and an appreciation for some terrific programming skills. It was incredible what could be done with a 1 MHz processor in the hands of a true artist. You are the lone pilot on a battle-wounded US Aircraft Carrier armed with the incredible Grumman F6-F Hellcat. Using rockets, bombs and a powerful machine gun you face the entire Imperial Japanese Navy and the dreaded Mitsubishi Zero. Some folks may have seen the subsequent ports of this game to the PC or Nintendo but those lacked some fun features found in the original. This beautiful iOS version stays mostly true to the smooth cinematic (for a 2D scroller) gameplay and adds a few new elements with clever & intuitive tilt-shift controls and mostly keeps the classic action. Brought back some really good memories and will be keeping this app to fight the good fight another day.

I really enjoy the game and have received 3 stars for every level except 1-8 Foxs Nest. I just can’t figure out how to sink a battleship (2 torpedos), another boat (guns) and a gun emplacement with the firepower provided. Even trying to get enemy friendly-fire doesn’t seem to get you there with the amount of fuel available. What’s the secret?
