Jet Lancer is a frenetic aerial dog-fighting game where you hunt enemy pilots, carve up giant robots, and defy death at supersonic speeds as a daring mercenary in the far future.On the surface a bombastic bullet hell shooter, Jet Lancer sets itself apart with a deep upgrades system that encourages learning, experimentation, and tactical decision-making - meaning players will have to balance risk and reward in order to progress deeper into the game.
Equip your jet with a variety of armaments and upgrades as you hunt the deadliest prey the world has ever seen: giant killer robots. Do you prefer the reliability of the missile swarm? The intimidation factor of the Megalaser? Or maybe you're comfortable showing off with nothing more than your mini-gun, your afterburners, and a single point of health.
The choice is yours— if you're daring enough to take it.
Across multiple game modes - including a lethal New Game Plus and a story-driven single-player campaign - players will dominate the skies with tight and responsive controls. With a sky-high skill ceiling, there's always something new to learn, and always new ideas to experiment with.
Game designer Vladimir Fedyushkin said: "Making Jet Lancer has felt like a journey into and uncharted territory of game design. Trying to create a modern arcade re-imagining of the classic 2D flight simulator genre required constantly inventing new approaches - and it's been great fun taking on this challenge"
Justin Ramos, VP of Operations and Strategy at Armor Games Studios, added: "What drew us to Jet Lancer was its frenzied play, but once we spent more time with it we realized we had something far more special — a talented development team that understood how to make an experience that makes you feel like a badass ACE pilot, and rewards you for taking bold risks against overwhelming odds."
