AirFight yesterday reached #30 in the top 50 list of all paid iPhone applications in Sweden, and has been in that same spot until today. Press coverage at the Swedish news site macfeber.se has probably helped sales a lot.
In the US, AirFight is placed around #260 in the list of top iPhone action games. It’s getting quite good AppStore quotes, but since the game has received virtually no press coverage whatsoever in the US I can only guess it can be hard to find for the average customer, which should explain the low download rate of the game compared to the Swedish AppStore.
Here are the current quotes from the US AppStore (from mobclix.com):
Very Good…
This is a true realistic dog fight sim. The control you have over your plane is amazing. You really get the sense of flight as you skim across the ocean. Great 3D free roaming dog fighter. Easily the best so far.

Nice New Air Combat …
Pretty nice as far as graphics and aircraft control go, though scenery could be better. Flying only over the ocean gets old after a while. Also, the enemy aircraft seem to be able to execute nearly impossible manuevers, like when they in front of me and they do a 180 almost in place and come right at me. They are also very difficult to kill. All in all though a great game, it just needs more tweaking to get 5 stars.

GREAT…
Very good combat simulator. Needs update though. Needs new kinds of terrain. Maby like a city where you could fly in between tall buildings like New York. That would be awesome. I’ll give 5 stars when it’s updated. Good game though.
