Ridiculous difficulty spikes will have you replaying old levels dozens of times in order to get enough currency to upgrade your plane to what it needs to be in order to progress further. This wouldn't that big of a problem if the levels didn't feel so uninspired, most of them just play the same anyways. The controls feel very loose as well.
I would recommend it for 1$ price, but not for 5$. It is a simple shmup with cute graphics but mechanics that get boring very fast. In short sessions it is a blast at first and the game has nice boss fights which are the also the main problem here. Boss are very difficult (especialy the 'Flying Dragon') so you need to upgrade your plane to stand a chance against them, but... the upgrades cost money so to have your plane maxed out, requires ridicolous amont of replaying old levels which causes you grow sick of this game with boredom. I assume devs wanted to stretch the game time but they overdone it... If you get this game on a sale and decide to play it, take my advice and invest in Beast plane from the start. It is the only plane that is reasonable upgrades, dont waste money on other planes as you will waste a lot of time...
I barely ever play shmups, but even I can tell that Aces of the Luftwaffe is a severe disappointment on the gameplay front. It's probable that the original, mobile version of this game contained microtransactions, and everything in the game including the difficulty and cost of upgrades was designed to get the player to buy them(as is the despicable practice in mobile games). When the game was ported to the PC, the devs removed the microtransactions and tidied up a few other things, but didn't bother to re-balance the game itself. You are usually unavoidably buffeted by enemies and bullets in such a manner that the only real way to progress is to upgrade your plane, and that costs a completely unreasonable amount of in-game currency. Long story short, if you want to actually complete the game, you'll have to do an obscene amount of grinding. Bosses are sort of neat but very unbalanced
Suprisingly nice-looking port from mobile platforms. Gameplay MOSTLY of a moderate difficulty, with only a few bosses and levels presenting a hard challenge. I found my hands trembling from adrenaline rush when fighting bosses from Flight of the Dragon and Night over Europe, I must say :) There is, however, a BIG problem with this game. Since it was originally designed to have micro-transactions, it has a progressively steep price for upgrades, which forces you to grind easier missions over and over again. Also, ingame currency is needed to unlock each successive chapter in story, which leads to even more grinding. While such approach is unfortunately acceptable on mobile, it translates badly to PC, especially since you don't even have an option to pay instead of grind here. However, the game keeps its save file in plain-text format, and it's very easy to edit it, so if you find yoursel

Aces of the Luftwaffe - Review Story: Europe is at war, and you, a pilote of the British Royal Airforce are to stop the invading Germans, who sent masses of tanks, aircrafts and crazy new weapons which you'll have to take on. Gameplay: Aces of the Luftwaffe plays like any other Shoot 'em up, so the controls are nothing special, you've got your powerups, your repairs and your masses of enemies. Shooting happens automatically so basically you only control your position. Where this game differentiates is through the countless special mechanics introduced level by level. Important for this is: there are 3 playable characters, which all differentiate in the playstyle. Each of the different characters pilot different planes and have different special powers. These are unlocked by shooting down a c
Straight mobile port. Feels a bit repetitive with lots of grinding to get past later stages. Controls are ok. Sounds are mediocre. I would recommend grabbing second game as it seems as a much better option.
