Happy New Year (a bit late I know)
I did something I wanted to try for a long time, I did a "Speedrun" of Wings and beat the whole game in 4h 41m.
The run itself is not very exciting, its mostly skipping the missions and before getting booted from the corps (5 Mission failed in a row) I tried to complete a mission to save some time (mostly bombing). There is a route and some strats to use here, so running it wasnt boring at all, sure you skip all the dog fights, but in order to keep going you have to successfully finish some missions (strafing and bombing).
I lost 20 Pilots what is way to much, but I did some annyoing mistakes like crashing or getting shot down by AA-Guns (I also had to pee after 3h in what was interrupting my focus sometimes
).
In order to get a Leaderboard on speedrun.com I had to do a full run, what is now accomplished.
So now after the Leaderboard is setup I am looking for more interessting (and shorter) categories to run.
I already created:
- Fighter Ace (5 Kills)
- Highest Rank
and I have some more in mind, but I also wanted to ask you if you can think of some fun categories for this game.
I also hope some of you will join the fun so we can see who is the fastest pilot alive
Here is a link to my run:

I also did Maupiti Island in 3m 59s what was way faster the I expected, but it turns out you dont have to do much in order to win this game:
