LOOKING FOR VR?
Are you looking for the new SimplePlanes VR? After you get to the bottom of this page, you can check out the list showing a quick comparison between SimplePlanes and SimplePlanes VR.DYNAMIC FLIGHT MODEL
Flight simulation at its finest. Every little decision you make while designing will impact how you fly it. Weight distribution, thrust, lift, and drag are all calculated continuously while flying. Parts can break off in a spectacular fashion while you're flying due to over-stress or by impacting something. The fun won't stop there though. You can keep on flying even with a missing wing if you've got the skills.
CHALLENGES
Climb in to the cockpit of one of your craft and see how you fare piloting it in the challenges. The challenges will keep you entertained for hours. Land on aircraft carriers, escort bombers, dodge surface-to-air missiles, race through courses, and so much more.
SANDBOX
Use all available parts to build airplanes with no restrictions. The sky is the limit. Literally.
MODDING
Modding is fully supported so you can build your own parts and environments. Download our Unity package which includes specially designed tools to aid in designing and building mods which you can then share with your friends and the community.
Still have a question about SimplePlanes vs. SimplePlanes VR? Let's see if this helps...
- Both games have access to the same crafts*
- SimplePlanes includes an aircraft builder, SimplePlanes VR does not.
- Except for those which require building; all challenges, islands, locations, aircraft, etc. are available in both games.
- Buying both of them on Steam will automatically enable VR in SimplePlanes. After VR is enabled in SimplePlanes you can do everything there, without switching games.
*See SimplePlanes VR's store page for information related to downloading crafts in VR.
