Crisis Wing is a vertical shoot 'em up developed by Pieslice Productions and released in 2020, available on PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. Designed in the style of mid-1990s arcade shooters, it features 16-bit pixel graphics and an FM synthesizer soundtrack, with an optional CRT filter for added authenticity. Players pilot a ship through seven stages, each populated by distinct enemy types and culminating in large boss encounters. Three upgradable primary weapons and a selection of sub-weapons allow for varied offensive builds. A local co-op mode supports two players simultaneously. Beyond the main campaign, the game includes a Boss Rush mode, a Score Attack mode, and a Practice Mode that provides unlimited lives for players refining their approach. The overall design draws heavily from classic arcade shmup conventions while incorporating modern quality-of-life elements.
