Aviassembly

Fun little sandbox game to build your own Planes for different Mission requirements. No real flight physics but a fun arcade game with aircrafts.

Not very long but extremely fun. For the price it's definitely worth it. Really one of the best build your vehicle / plane I've seen, and if you like career mode this is this only game that nails it. Not as complex as stormworks but much better career.

Mandatory runway takeoffs and landings would massively improve aircraft building I think one relatively small change could have a huge impact on the core aircraft-building gameplay: making the runway mandatory for takeoffs and landings. Right now, if an aircraft doesn't have enough performance to take off from a runway, you can simply start accelerating before the runway and take off from the surrounding terrain. The same applies to landing — you can simply land next to the runway. This means that runway length and some of the more challenging airports with mountains or trees near the runway can largely be bypassed. What makes this especially interesting is that almost everything needed for this already exists: runways, aircraft physics, landing gear, crashes and respawning. It wouldn't need to become a complicated damage or ground simulation. Even a simple rule where a takeoff or landing only counts if the aircraft is within the runway area would already make a huge difference. It would make aircraft weight, thrust, lift, landing speed and runway length much more meaningful when designing an aircraft. You would actually have to build a plane that can operate from the airport you're using. I think this would strengthen several existing game systems simultaneously rather than simply adding another piece of content. I absolutely love the game so far, and this is probably the single gameplay improvement I'd personally prioritize above almost anything else.

This was a weirdly great experience to get to the end. Having to re-engineer the plane types for the mission types was also a fun experience. Hugely recommend.

good

very fun, the build menu is a bit laggy though
