All in all, its schmup design at its most traditional. They’ll attack you in helicopters, submarines, and a variety of planes and, if you make it to the end of the level, it’s time to fight a boss that you’ll have to dismantle weapon by weapon. The levels themselves are very short and sweet affairs that don’t wear themselves out, making it the perfect pick-up-and-play game for when you only have a short amount of time to put into something.Įnemies come at you in waves across the screen, throwing streams of projectiles at you that you’re going to have to dodge. Like schmups of yore, the weapons can be upgraded in mission from enemy drops, and missions are rated out of five stars on your performance. New weapons are unlocked each mission, with new weapons typically the optimal choice for the next mission. Of course, sausages come in a variety of flavours, such as cluster bombs that beautifully wipe out entire rows of ground units. That’s right, the same sausage technology that revolutionised Fredonia is what you’re now dropping on the enemy. Your bombs are made from the latest in ground-breaking sausage technology. As you might expect, you’ve got guns that shoot in spread patterns, guns that shoot behind you, and guns that project a steady stream of hot lead. You can load up two weapons at a time, one for your machine guns or shotguns, and one for your bombs. If you’ve got friends on hand (or online) Dogfight: A Sausage Bomber Story also supports four-player drop-in and drop-out co-op play.ĭogfight: A Sausage Bomber Story sports twenty-four different weapons for you to unlock across its campaign, which you can mix and match in the HQ Screen. Across nine missions and locations, you’re going to be flying from left to right, shooting down everything in your path. The nation of Fredonia is under attack from the Vega Empire and, across salivating-sounding locations such as Relishtonia, Ketchup Isles, and Curry Cave, you take on the role of one of four members of the Sausage Bomber crew – elite combat pilots whose job it is to give the Vega Empire the sweet taste of freedom!Īfter choosing from one of four pilots you’re dropped into the fray with little fanfare. If you can’t tell by the game’s subtitle, Dogfight: A Sausage Bomber Story comes pre-packed with a cheesy sense of character deep-fried in food puns. It takes its cue and design from older schmups with waved-based gameplay and a droppable power-up system, but what it liberally borrows, it does very well. Outside of two minor mechanics, the game doesn’t do anything vastly different from others in the genre. If you’re in the mood for some classic side-scrolling schmup action, you should look no further than Dogfight: A Sausage Bomber Story!ĭeveloped by Katsu Entertainment, Dogfight: A Sausage Bomber Story is as traditional a schmup as you can get.
