Original Arwing

9,576 Ryster  8.4 years ago

Re-create that nostalgia with the Arwing from good ol' Starfox 64. Featuring two powerful laser cannons and a boost feature so you can confidently take on Andross and his minions.

"Well, show me what you can do with that Arwing!"

I used to play Starfox 64 a lot as a kid and i think this represents the original quite well. Unfortunately, it was difficult to get it airborne and has some pitch wobble at low speeds. It has all the features of an Arwing though, such as the wings changing position.


*Controls*

-VTOL for landing and take-off. VTOL forward for standard flight.
-AG1 for speed boost
-AG2 and *TRIM UP* for attack mode and activating weapons. *READ NOTE*

***IMPORTANT NOTE***
The laser cannons are able to destroy bridges, but, after you activate them, don't try to use them without trimming up first, unless you want to explode. Also, the speed boost makes the exhaust flash. So it might be irritating to some people.

    @Ahahduck
    That's because, after you press 2, you need to trim all the way up before you use the weapons. If you look at the front you'll see that trimming up opens the front of the wings, exposing the guns. hope that helped

    for realzies though, it looks just like in Starfox64, even better actually, cuz those graphics back then, looking now, eesh. But it still has a special place in my blood pumping organ.
