Collosatropolis: A City in Chaos
The once-thriving metropolis of Collosatropolis is now bursting at the seams. Towering skyscrapers dominate the skyline, while pollution chokes the air - and parking is a nightmare. Desperate times call for desperate measures, and Collosatropolis sets its sights on neighbouring Mungola for expansion. But little do they know, Mungola isn't going down without a fight...
The Legendary F-27 "Platypus" Takes Flight
In the heart of Mungola, a single squadron of fighter planes stands as the last line of defence—the legendary F-27 "Platypus". Despite their age, these antique aircraft are the Mungolan people's last hope for freedom. Are you ready to pilot the Platypus and take on the mighty Collosatropolan battle fleet?
