About Thick Air

People are no more.

In the world devoid of human life our sentient machines are left to simulate the life they once knew. With no one to watch them, the swarm of flying drones built for one purpose - race - compete each into eternity other across various landscapes and settings.

Thick Air drone design is inspired by automobile era of late XX century.

Features
  • Physics-driven flight model, no BS! Get a gamepad handy.
  • Split-screen multiplayer - challenge your best friend, see how that friendship holds up.
  • Brutal and unforgiving AI!
  • Various race modes.
  • Headbanging soundtrack!
  • VR support (completely optional) - both HTC Vive and Oculus Rift have been tested to work perfectly.
  • HOTAS (actually any DirectInput device) and Vive motion controllers support.

What we got planned
  • Online multiplayer - coming soon!
  • Drone visual and (optional) performance damage
  • Performance tuning
  • Visual customization (paint it pink) and upgrades (put a spoiler on it)
  • Community-introduced features - we're listening to your every word!

This game hasn't received updates in years, and the early access notes said it would take 3-6 months and that they're in it for the long haul. Disappointing.

THIS Early Access GAME IS DEAD. DEVELOPERS RAN AWAY. DO NOT BUY. The game is not completed DEVS didn't updated this in a very very very long time.

Hard to read text. Doesn't react well with controls. When exiting the VR, the application spent forever exiting until I shut down SteamVR itself. Game in general seems to be a proof of concept. Needs improvement. Not worth the $3. Eating a hamburger at the same price would be more entertaining. Don't buy.

Love it! I consider myself a pretty competent HOTAS pilot, but I find it impossible to win any race... Best position I've done is 5 of 8. I love a challenge and I can see many hours trying to master this. I would've happily paid 3 times more for it.

Good so far, much better with a flight stick. A menu system that can be used while flying. Runs well. Id buy now at $5 tho.

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

Planet Zoo 2 price: which edition, and when it gets cheaper

Planet Zoo 2 is out today. The Planet Zoo 2 price splits two ways, the cheap pre-order keys stopped existing three weeks ago, and the original got dearer as the sequel landed.
