SimplePlanes

I've got this from Humblebundle. I've been all looking an experience like KSP and Besiege, where I could build my own planes, and replicate a few things out of games and shows. Except I didn't get too far with it - maybe it's just me, but, that editor was - and unless they changed stuff around still is - INCREDIBLY unintuitive, complicated and time consuming to use. After building in KSP and Besiege, this felt like an infuriating joke, and after watching several YT tutorials without finding any answers to my questions, I just gave up. Now, don't pin me on that, but I BELIEVE it was something about undoing things, and uncooperative camera & clicking controls, I remember looking through the options to change what my mouse buttons do or something... everything's kinda vague by now, it's been a few months. What I do remember is, I wasted hours on end trying to get down with the uncooperative editor in sandbox mode, getting frustrated about things it just didn't let me to and attempting to use the feature to make own sections to re-use later [I guess?], I just kinda ragequit and deleted the game. Don't get me wrong, I really do love KSP and Besiege, creating my own things, and cool looking ones at that. But something about that editor just absolutely didn't work for me. The gameplay I went into in between, with the planes from the community, didn't entertain me much, either - the planes, especially the modern one with ludicrous amounts of detail made me wonder, HOW did people use THAT editor to create things as delicate as this... Anyways, after toying around with the provided planes for a few minutes in total, it got boring rather quickly. This IS all about creating your own - which the editor never allowed me to do. It's hard to explain [especially if it's been a while], one of those things you have to try yourself to understand. But perhaps I've just not been able to use it because nobody ever explains how to and it's just not as intuitive as it's presented to be.

VERY nice game, i am a 13 year old in hopes of persuing my dreams of becoming an aerospace engineer and this gamehelps my knowlage furthen, this game is just,chefs kiss. thank you

In a way this reminds me of Goat Simulator and other such novelty games. Novelty "Toys" maybe? None of these can be really considered as "games" per se. More like sandbox toys in the vein of old maxis sims (which they also referred to as "toys"), only much more simplistic. Don't get me wrong, it's a fun little thing, where you can mush and bang together various pieces of... practically everything from waffle makers to tractor wheels and see if they fly or at least roll. And that's the basic premise. Certainly entertaining and well programmed, and the possibilities for designing "planes" and taking them out on a fly are endless. But that's also where the gameplay ends. There's really not much else to it. Right now, i'ts discounted and goes for under 10 dollars, which seems about right. Grab it and have an hour or so of fun, and forget about it for a couple of days. Then repeat.

I first got this game many years ago for my smartphone. I had my fun with it, but the controls never fully caught on for me. I think you can use a controller when flying, but building on a touchscreen felt off to me. As such I was hopeful for the PC version. It could have worked just as smoothly as Kerbal Space Program or Besiege. Sadly that doesn't seem to be the case. There are some minor improvements/changes, but ultimately it felt like I was playing a mobile game on my PC. It felt like I was using the same GUI and the same controls, main difference being that I was using a mouse instead of a finger. This isn't really a critique of the game though, but more of a warning that this is a lazy port of a mobile game. It's a game I like, but I probably wouldn't have bought it again for PC if I had known this.

you can made whatever that you want in this game
