SimplePlanes

SimplePlanes is an aircraft-building and flight game. You assemble planes from parts, place engines for thrust, design and attach wings, then climb into the cockpit to see how your craft flies.

Build and share aircraft

You can use the available parts without restrictions in Sandbox mode. Over 100,000 aircraft are available to download, including World War II bombers, next-generation fighters and sci-fi spacecraft. You can also upload your own designs and rise through the builder ranks from bronze to gold.

Flight and challenges

The flight model continuously calculates weight distribution, thrust, lift and drag, so your design choices affect how an aircraft handles. Parts can break off from overstress or impact, but you can keep flying with a missing wing if you have the skill.

Challenges put you in the cockpit of one of your aircraft for tasks such as landing on aircraft carriers, escorting bombers, dodging surface-to-air missiles and racing through courses.

Mods and VR

Modding is supported, with tools for creating parts and environments that you can share with friends and the community. SimplePlanes and SimplePlanes VR share access to the same aircraft, and both include challenges, islands, locations and aircraft except for content that requires building. SimplePlanes includes an aircraft builder, while SimplePlanes VR does not. Buying both on Steam automatically enables VR in SimplePlanes, where you can do everything without switching games.
