Rescue. Destroy. Survive.

Operation Thunder is a retro-inspired top-down arcade shooter developed by Host2play using Unity.

Take control of an Allied attack aircraft and battle your way through enemy-controlled waters. Rescue stranded pilots, destroy enemy warships, assault heavily defended island bases, and fight your way to an epic showdown against a powerful enemy flagship.
