{{quote|''Your engine's turbines roar as you scream out of the sky. Startled troops look up just in time to see [[More Dakka|your wing cannons blaze]]. You feel the plane buck slightly as [[Macross Missile Massacre|your missiles streak towards their targets]]. [[Stuff Blowing Up|A flash in the distance]] tells you that they have done their job and so have you. The Mega-Corps pay well, for those good enough to survive. They call you into the shadows with [[Only in It For the Money|dreams of wealth]], and you answer, [[When All You Have Is a Hammer|the only way you know how]].''}}
'''''Raptor: Call of the Shadows''''' (often called ''Raptor'' for short) is a 2D [[Vertical Scrolling Shooter]] for the x86 PC written for MS-DOS, by Cygnus Studios (which has since changed its name to Mountain King Studios). It was published by Apogee Software on April 1, 1994. In 1999, Mountain King Studios re-released Raptor as a native Windows program, and in 2010, the game was [[Updated Rerelease|re-released again]] by DotEmu as ''Raptor: Call of the Shadows 2010 Edition'', featuring smoother graphics with support for higher resolutions, as well as native compatibility with Windows XP and Vista.
There is not much of a story in the game. [[Excuse Plot|Your character is a mercenary flying the super-tech Raptor, sent on interplanetary missions to knock off top competitors of MegaCorps]].
