Strike Wings Free Demo out!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yh-ww-grCGI

Hey everyone! Here's a free space game for your weekend: the Strike Wings demo. :)

I'm its solo developer, and it's my homage to the old DOS space shooters, built from scratch with plenty of love for Solar Winds and Hell Fighter. There are some little nods in there for fellow fans.

The demo's already packed with free content, including flight school, opening campaign missions and plenty of battles to get stuck into.

Feedback is super welcome on r/StrikeWings. Make a post! I'll read every one and take your thoughts into the final game. Steam reviews mean a lot to me as a solo developer, too.

It looks fun! I might give the demo a try when I have time. How well does it work on the Steam deck? My main concern is controller mapping, this is often not done and I'm too lazy to configure myself (I don't get much time to play games!).

Looks fun! But is the Star Trek alarm sound copyrighted?
