"Dukes and Dirigibles" is a top-down Steampunk arena shooter inspired by arcade classics such as Time Pilot and Gauntlet (yes, you read that correctly!). We took an old-school approach to the game play that focuses on skills and tactics. Players will face an array of enemy aircraft and turrets inside giant airborne arenas. Survive long enough to destroy all the aircraft hangers and you’ll get to take on the arena’s bosses. The original web portal version can be played on Kongregate and Newgrounds. Try it out! Remember, the standalone version will have enhanced graphics and other updates!
