About

Warhawk is an action/simulation game built around a futuristic VTOL craft. The player maneuvers with 360 degrees of flight control through 6 unique levels. Take to the skies over desert and volcanic planets, through ancient castles and towers, and against massive airships in WarHawk. As a member of the Strikeforce Omicron, your goal is to wipe out the aggressive forces of Kreel. You will have complete 360 degree movement over large 3D worlds as you evade or attack in any direction: reverse, bank left or right, dive, barrel-roll, perform loops or even use the Immelmann turn to blast enemies out of the sky. Fire deadly lock-on missiles, rockets, multi-fire swarmers, plasma cannons and more to take down enemy ships and ground units. An orchestral soundtrack will set the mood while you engage in dogfights, and four different camera angles (cockpit, near chase, far chase and a cinema-style view) let you customize the action as you see fit. In total, there are over 25 areas of combat set within six zones: Desert Zone, Canyon Zone, Airship Zone, Volcanic Zone, Gauntlet Zone and Storm Zone. There are no saving or loading features. Instead, a password is presented each time a level is completed. In 2007 Incognito Entertainment remade the title as a multiplayer-only PlayStation 3 game.
