About 1976 - Back to midway
The story
It’s the year 1976. We’re in a dystopian reality in which the Nazi army ended up defeating the Allied Front and winning the Great War. In this apocalyptic parallel universe, Hitler has declared himself Supreme World Chancellor and, what’s even more terrifying, Tyrolean pants are all the rage across the globe.
However, there’s still hope. Despite the scarcity of resources, the Allied resistance’s brightest scientists, led by the eccentric Dr. Ivan Ivanovich, have made the impossible possible: they’ve built a time machine.
Thus, thanks to the Quantum Air Combat Simulator, the Virtual Reality prototype designed by Dr. Ivanovich, you’ll have the opportunity to travel back in time and take part in the most momentous air battles of World War II.
But pay attention! Playing with quantum reality and altering the path of history can have the most unforeseen consequences…
Classic Essence / VR Technology
Sit in front of the huge 3D Quantum Simulator screen, fasten your seatbelt and relive the magic of legendary vertical scrolling titles.
Alternate the “classic” point of view with the first-person perspective, while performing impossible maneuvers to dodge enemy fire. Be amazed by the dynamic scenario elements that will pop off at you. Never has a simulation seemed so real and fast-paced.
Air Combat / Immersion Zones
As Ivanovich Games already did in the successful “Operation Warcade”, all the scenarios in “1976: Back to Midway” include several Immersion Zones, which allow the player to move inside the aircraft cabin, offering new and thrilling challenges. An experience that only Virtual Reality can provide.
Take control of the Lockheed P-38 Lightning and the B-17G Flying Fortress exact replicas, test your pilot skills, become a flying ace, and change history forever.

1976 - Back to Midway is a virtual reality action shooter that wears its arcade inspirations proudly, delivering a playful and energetic homage to classic 1970s and 1980s aerial shooters while using VR to reframe those ideas in a fresh, immersive way. Developed and published by Ivanovich Games, the title is clearly driven by a love of old-school design philosophies—simple controls, fast feedback, escalating challenge—combined with a willingness to experiment with how those mechanics feel when placed inside a three-dimensional, head-tracked space. Rather than chasing realism or simulation depth, the game focuses on immediacy, spectacle, and nostalgia. The game’s narrative framing is intentionally absurd and tongue-in-cheek, presenting an alternate-history 1976 in which the world has gone very wrong and hope rests on a bizarre time-travel combat program. This setup is less about telling a serious story and more about giving context to the game’s rapid-fire missions, exaggerated characters, and arcade tone. Dialogue and narration lean into campy humor, reinforcing the sense that the player is participating in a stylized sci-fi fantasy rather than a grounded war experience. It sets ex…
really great game
One of my favorite VR games. Definitely worth a look.
Absolutely loved this game. Became pretty addicted. Although it's mostly "only" a 2.5D arcade shorter, it's really hard to put down!
