About Lakehopper

Challenge your piloting skills in a seaplane focused flight simulator that takes place in a persistent world where you are responsible for the care and maintenance of your plane. Parts wear out and must be replaced. Otherwise, you risk in-flight failures. At its heart, Lakehopper is a flight simulator, with a physics-based flight model that aims to be realistic and challenging. Fly between isolated communities in a flooded, rugged landscape that only seaplanes can serve. Deliver cargo and help connect towns separated by huge distances of nothing but mountains and open stretches of water. Use your skills as a pilot, and the navigational tools at your disposal, to hop between far-flung destinations. Keep your deliveries safe in unforgiving terrain and treacherous waters. Learn intricately simulated plane systems that are a mix of the familiar and the near-future.

A detailed simulation of a workhorse flying boat

  • Assemble your twin engine flying boat seaplane from 100+ parts. 
  • Walk around inside your plane! Being in a vehicle doesn't simply lock you into the pilot's seat, even while flying. Roam around the plane, do in-flight repairs, and reconfigure systems. Just watch your step and keep the door closed! 
  • Refuel your plane and deliver cargo to isolated communities around the region. 
  • Detailed plane subsystems with start-up sequences that require attention to detail.
  • Complex water physics for seaplanes that float, take off, and land like real seaplanes!

A vast map to explore

  • Fly across and explore a mountainous, flooded 360,000 square km (140,000 square mi) map. 
  • Realistic terrain based on real world landscapes.

A challenging, persistent world

  • The game doesn't end just because your flight does. Each flight informs the next!
  • Check the condition of individual plane parts and replace them before they cause in-flight failures... or don't! 
  • Track jobs, run checklists, look up navigational info, and reference assembly instructions with the in-game reference binder.

Fly your way

  • Support for gamepads, joysticks, yokes, throttle quadrants, and many common flight sim peripherals with detailed control rebinding options.

It took an hr just to get the plane airborne. Than with little instructions the flying mechanics are janky. I would recommend the devs focus on mechanics and make the first plane completely built. but the running back and forth to the plan and the shed was tedious and painful.
Recommended Sep 22, 2026
This is a capable very, very early access game. There's a nice loop if you wish to engage with it - fly off to different spots, drop off the materials, pick up materials, VOR to the next spot, drop off materials, rinse and repeat. While it's very bare-bones, the core (the flight mechanics) are pretty good, the design and build part has potential and while it's reward/challenge free (beyond actually getting to grips with the core engine) it's got potential. I'll keep looking back at it - both planes fly differently, which is nice.

Final Fantasy XI price: what you pay, then keep paying

The Final Fantasy XI price is two numbers, and the subscription is the one that matters. Our tracked low, what the Ultimate Collection includes, and when buying at list is correct.

Castlevania Belmont's Curse price: which edition to buy

The Castlevania Belmont's Curse price splits in two: Steam charges full list, authorised resellers a quarter less. Our record says that 25% has not moved since June, and is the floor.

Boltgun 2 price: buy the sequel, or the cheap first game?

The Boltgun 2 price has no cheaper route on launch day — our record shows one listing, unmoved since September. The first game is the bargain, but a smaller one than it was.

Rust price: why the cheap keys vanished, and when to buy

The Rust price has two answers: an official one that barely moves, and a reseller one that sat in single digits for 95 days and then disappeared. Our record shows both.
