Wingman DX is a Ren'Py-based visual novel set in Wing Academy for the Soon-to-be-Delicious, an academy where wings learn how to become more delicious and appealing to humans and find their Soulmouth. You play as a human admitted to the academy on scholarship as part of a work-study where you are simultaneously expected to be a full-time student and also help teach wings what humans find attractive. Throughout your time at the school, you meet fourteen eligible hot wings, each with their own issues to work through.The eligible hot wings are: Atomic: A brooding outsider and delinquent who has been suspended a total of 174 times. He doesn't take to the player character and believes they don't believe to be at the academy. Cajun: An aspiring doctor and a driven scholar who, alongside his brother Louisiana Rub, has beaten the odds to attend the prestigious academy from humble backgrounds. He's a little odd, to say the least. Citrus Piri Piri: An overworked graduate student at the Academy struggling to strike a healthy work-life balance. Despite his place in the hierarchy, he is close to several students and has a band with Garlic. Garlic Parmesan: The popular, handsome, and intelligent older brother that seems to have the perfect life. He's not as happy as he lets on. Hickory Smoked BBQ: A fictional character that you shouldn't romance because he doesn't have a story. Honey Pineapple: A totally generic Wing who is living his fantasy of being in a bad teen romance movie. Lemon Pepper: The younger brother of Garlic with quite a chip on his shoulder about always being in his shadow. Louisiana Rub: The twin of Cajun who is perhaps the most studious Wing in the Academy. He's an aspiring pharmacist. Mango Habanero: A hardcore theory nerd with a bit of an odd way of viewing things, he finds the deeper philosophical implications in everything around him. Mild: A shy loner who mostly gets pushed around by the other Wings. He's really into his art. Original Hot: A foreign exchange student who speaks entirely in a different language that the other Wings may or may not understand. Smoke0: A cool hip guy who has been held back in the academy several years in a row. Spicy Kochukaru: A friend from before Wing Academy whom you've lost contact with over the years. Attempting to reconnect with you dredges up some bad memories. Teriyaki: A quiet and brooding student who's maybe a bit too serious for the setting.The game is downloadable on itch.io and its official Tumblr.Not to be confused with Hatoful Boyfriend. Also not to be confused with debut manga of Masakazu Katsura, Wingman.

Bilingual Bonus: More like quadrilingual if that was a term that was used. Original Hot speaks a total of five languages in the game, including French, Spanish, Chinese, and Japanese. The end credits are also sung in Mandarin Chinese with no subtitles. That most of the non-English is illegible to many players is the point.

Gay Option
 Wingman DX (Visual Novel) / int_2a019fef
comment
Gay Option: The player character's gender is never revealed, so it's possible for any of the routes to be gay, assuming hot wings have analogous genders. The human portrait version makes this more explicit.

Fantastic Racism: Lemon mentions that the term "chicken wings" is a slur if non-wings say it. Mr. Fry suggests fear of this as the reason why he hid Balyssa's heritage from them.

Foreshadowing
 Wingman DX (Visual Novel) / int_9d12bbc1
comment
Foreshadowing: Quite a bit for several of the routes and major twists. Garlic marries a fry in Honey's ending and mentions feeling oddly close to you despite not being attracted to humans. This sets up his attraction to fries. Garlic being drawn to you even though he's not attracted to humans foreshadows that the player character may not be fully human. Honey straight up mentions he thinks Cajun is trying to kill him. Teriyaki and Smoke0 both attempt to drop some hints about the true nature of the school, hoping to convince you to help them. Cajun hints at having a more nefarious goal and is disappointed if you seem to disapprove or misunderstand him.

Shout-Out: In spades. The game references several hot wings restaurants, including Wingstop, Buffalo Wild Wings, and Smoke Eaters. Legally Blonde: Atomic has been suspended 174 times (and will be kicked out the 175th time) and there are multiple references to the lyrics of "Chip on My Shoulder". High School Musical: Honey's reference to falling in love of cookies references the end of the first film. Friday: Which seat will you take?
