I know this is off the store page so nobody new will read this but why? I got this game because it had potential and all they did was not update it and now they are just making a new one and selling it under a different name. I did have fun when playing it but the glitches made it unplayable 10-20% of the time. Good concept, poor execution. I honestly expected more from the KSP devs. TLDR: great potential, poor execution and questionable business practices. Before being taken off the store and not updated: 7/10 Now: 2/10 Probably not gonna buy "KitHack" for these reasons.

I happily bought this thinking I was supporting something kinda cool. But then it gets dropped before getting finished and then re-released under a different name so I would have to purchase again. Very disappointing that you screwed over the people that supported you in the beginning. I very much hope I get a comment explaining how I'm wrong because right now I just feel ripped off for trying be supportive.
Over a year since the last update, which was only a minor bugfix! Radio silence from the devs, other than occasionally hinting at 'a big overhaul' and 'map things' that really seem to be turning out to not much. I know it's EA, but I own plenty of EA games with smaller devteams that push out actual content updates and major backend overhauls in half the time....
Cool game but it's clearly unfinished. There are no updates and the available parts are very limited which greatly limits creativity. I will update this review if the game updates but right now you are better off playing KSP or Stormworks
I'd hold off on buying. The game itself is fun, but even though its early access its still pretty buggy. I had a hard time even building the planes as the parts were jittering and snapping all over the place when I drug them for example. The game has potential. It's fun when you can get it to work right. Just needs some bugs ironed out yet
I have 55 hours in simple planes and this game frustrates me way more than simple planes the making the plane part looks refined but it's absolutely horrible and it has barely any customization. The game itself is just buggy unrefined and lackluster it hasn't gotten an update in forever and I am saying all of this knowing it's and early access game. Do not buy this game instead just buy one of these Simple Planes, KSP, KSP2, Besiege
Worst, most glitchy piece of garbage I have ever played. Do not play this unless you want to simulate hell on your computer.
A seemingly abandoned game that had potential, hasn't been updated in nearly a year. Not that it got many updates before that. Avoid this game unless you are into purchasing incomplete games that appear as though they will never see further content updates.
Abandoned so they can sell the same game again under a different name, NEVER buy anything from the people associated with this product.
