탕탕에이스 launches on 23rd to Google Play and App Store

Players can mix and match 11 animal pilots with nine fighter types; named pilots include cat "Nyango", dog "Olla", fox "FlameTail", and bear "Seolmong," and both pilots and planes carry unique skills. Progression layers include equipment and weapons, traits, research, chips, and support units, while core skill upgrades occur every three skill levels. During runs you'll face normal mobs, elite enemies, and bosses, and each level-up presents three random choices for the player to select from.

Control and combat are tuned for vertical, one-thumb play: attacks use auto-aim, but bullet dodging and situational skill choices remain manual. Lifting your finger slows time to help thread through dense bullet patterns, a neat wrinkle for single-thumb play. The game frames its campaign around a sky-spreading zombie virus that turns machines and creatures into mechanical zombie swarms, and the animal pilots join a "Sky Rescue Operation" to save isolated cities and survivor hubs.

Gorilla Studio is offering free in-game items and currency during the first seven days after launch, and it will roll out limited events and dungeon content in stages. A 28-day "Base Sortie" event begins on day three and awards the fighter "Phantom" and pilot "FlameTail" among other rewards. From day eight a ten-day "Starsea Fishing Season" features the plane "DarkNight Blade" and pilot "Seolmong." The permanent dungeon "Meteor Bombardment" unlocks after clearing main stage 12-10; players destroy meteors amid an uncontrolled storm to collect gold. "We hope players experience fiery aerial combat with just one finger and the thrill of ever-changing skill combinations," Gorilla Studio said.
