Moving from mission to mission should be possible by scrolling. It's been a while since I checked on this demo but it may not have a working tutorial. Wings could break due to the aerodynamic force exceeding the threshold force of the joints, which is totally normal as long as it doesn't happen too often.

Oh yea, keyboard controls are already present in the Steam version along with rebindable controls and (limited) joystick support, which still needs some work. Next up on the planning after that is cockpit views and, hopefully, TrackIR support. Great to hear you are enjoying the game!

I'd like to get TrackIR in the game someday. As of now I have no clue how but we'll get there.

Man... u should've called it "Universale"

UPDATE: I CAN see the donators

Thats a cool idea. But as far as I know I'm not able to see who exactly is making the donations, only a notification with the amount.

Great suggestions. It's got an orbit camera in the current (unpublished) version in the game, which helps a lot with situational awareness. As for the indicators, Im going to overhaul those along with the weapons system to make it support missiles.

Yup another release is on the way with both of these in place. I just bought a new joystick I will be using to test the controls and we'll see how it goes!

Thanks for the feedback. Yes this is a known issue, it's hard to get the AI to get off your tail because of the fixed camera and the AI always knowing your position. The latest build (not released) has an orbit camera that can be toggled on/off that allows you to look around, which to me made it play a lot better. Downside is: you cant use mouse control in this mode as youre already using that to control the camera, so you have to use joystick or keyboard controls.

Thanks, I'm excited for release! Still got lots of things to add though, the list with ideas somehow never stops growing.

Developer Notes

• Check CN for additional/hidden entities

I like my british planes, but this project is exclusively centered around the USAF and USSR, basically the whole game has been built upon these two nations. 

Ill list some of em right here.

Planned aircraft (unordered):

• F-101 
• MiG-23
• A4
• MiG-29
• F-104
• F-20
• F-106
• Su-27
• XF-107A
• Mikoyan Ye-8
• F-4 Phantom
• F-16
• MiG-35
• F-15
• Su-37
• F-22
• SU-57

Experimentals:

• XF-84H
• Rockwell X-31
• Grumman X-29
• YF-23
• SU-47
• Mikoyan Project 1.44

Non player-flyable (AI only):

• A-26
• TU-95
• TU-4/B-29
• B-36

Ill actually make a new topic with this and most of the planned features too.

A cockpit view is the one thing that this game will unfortunately never have.  As you may have guessed, it's just too much work for the amount of planes involved. The good news is this allows me to crank out a new plane every 2-3 days. The A4 will likely be added to the default aircraft list. Experimental/specials will be rather exotic, mostly one-off prototypes or other planes with unique performance characteristics that fit the fighter role. Also , I'm glad you're excited about the project dude, so am I! Many big features/changes are underway.

A sort of free look cam could definitely be interesting for checking out dogfights. Perhapse an option for the instant dogfight gamemode. Pilot ranks (obtained from experience) would mainly grant you access to new liveries or special aircraft that are fun to fly,  as that was the idea with experience. Regarding the pippers, there will likely be no lead predictors, at least not for the steam release. The A-4 is included in the list for the future along with a whole bunch of other planes, still gotta decide where to place it in the rankings tho. 

Thanks man, appreciate it. A cinematic system is one of the planned features. You will be able to mount a camera on an aircraft and do air-to-air shots with pre-configured flight paths. And you mean pilot ranks? I actually haven't thought of that, good suggestion.

Fantastic

General chat.

No problem! Those aircraft are both on the list. The goal is to include  pretty much all the cold-war era fighters and more. Also some special aircraft and favorites of mine like the F-20 Tigershark and Rockwell X-31

Thanks man! And absolutely, a new and final demo release is already in the works and is about a week away from now.  It will fix a bunch of small-ish issues with the flight model (namely the incredibly sensitive pitch input and the ability to pull 20-30G turns), and mission system. I'll also give the inverted pitch a shot. 

After that, Ill add a lot more content; about 15-20 flyable aircraft, more missions, AI improvement, rebindable controls and many other things. The plan is to eventually get a full version on steam. As for the WT control system, I made the choice early on not to use it, to kinda keep the challenge of flying a plane with realistic inputs. What will happen though is joystick support, which might make things easier.

Thanks for the feedback. Inverting the pitch in my experience makes the aircraft a lot harder to control. 'But I guess thats because Im used to the current controls. I can always add the option for those willing to try tho, should be pretty easy. Or do you mean a War Thunder-like control system where you point and the aircraft follows?

Thanks man. Glad to hear the visuals are in the right place. It's strange I never noticed the mouse cursor when testing until now.

Thank you, I put a lot of work into getting the atmosphere right.

Thanks! And yeah, the controls are a little funny.

Understandable, I originally thought of turning the beacons into checkpoints that you would automatically teleport back to, but by then it was already too late to make any major changes, unfortunately.

This is some great feedback! Thank you, I agree with you especially on the sliding/stubborn platforms which have had me frustrated a couple of times when testing my level. I think with time I'll be able to flesh out the controls some more. Also, I was unaware the pointer was still visible! I'll give it another look.

The zip file is up! Thank you for giving it a try.
