About this game

Terminal Velocity overview

In the far future, armadas from surrounding systems have suddenly waged war on Earth, destroying crucial installations and major cities. Earth was quickly subjugated and brought to its knees. You are a pilot from the Ares Squadron, flying the fastest, most dangerous crafts ever made. Currently, you’re in the TV-202, a fighter few can handle. Given that the previous model, the TV-101, has chalked up more dead pilots than any experimental craft in history, many consider you lucky to be alive. You’re outgunned, outmanned, and strapped into a flying coffin. But just think how good “Savior of the Known Galaxy” will look on your resume.

Take to the skies and beyond in this pure action game brimming with full-throttle excitement! Climb into Terminal Velocity now and you’ll never go back to those flight sims that only offered combat as a mere “option”. Terminal Velocity IS combat without the unwieldy and needlessly complicated controls present in other flight sims. Imagine blazing above an alien planet, demolishing ground units with plasma beams, banking through a narrow canyon while enemy fighters are at your tail. Dive into the very essence of combat and pick up Terminal Velocity today!

  • Nine unique and dangerous planets with over 400,000 sq. miles of terrain combined!
  • Seven murderously destructive weapons along with a plethora of deadly power-ups.
  • Fast and furious air-to-air and air-to-ground combat that immerses you completely in the game!
