Data Wing: The Most SB of Mobile Games?

Didn’t see discussion of this game in search, so here we are.

This game is pretty great. Think Asteroids*Dotstream.

Probably in my top five of all the mobile-only games I’ve played. And heck: it seems to check all of the SB boxes so far: skill-based gameplay with nuance, levels that ramp up gradually and teach you new skills, unobtrusive but solid story, winning aesthetics, and overall originality. And as a mobile game it has a great pick up and play feel.

Plus, it’s completely free and seemingly made by one dude.

My one criticism so far is that I can’t tell yet if it’s possible to get really good. The touch control s feel so inherently clumsy that I’m not sure if it’s actually possible to take every turn perfectly.

Anyway: anyone else playing this? Anyone really really good?

I just downloaded this last night on a whim so now I’ve got to play it

+1 for vapowave sound track, -1 for needing to play in landscape orientation

Yeah, the sound seemed good, but I usually have it off to listen to podcasts.
