Dawn Aerowar is an interactive animated film in 12 episodes — not a game. You do not fly the planes. You watch a linear story, about two hours, and you can step into a War Room between episodes.
Jose Pavli directed, edited, and scored it. Neiwa Interactive, a studio in Marseille, published it on Steam on 10 November 2026 for Windows and macOS.
