RotorSim: Helicopter Simulator
Take to the skies in RotorSim, a retro-inspired helicopter simulation that blends classic 90s flight sims with modern accessibility. Fly three unique helicopters, each with distinct handling, as you complete 30 missions ranging from rescue ops to cargo transport. Dynamic weather effects like storms, fog, and wind add to the challenge, while a sim-cade flight model keeps controls intuitive without expensive peripherals required. RotorSim runs smoothly on low-end hardware and the Steam Deck.
RotorSim World (In Development)
RotorSim World has been my goal for years. A story-driven open world flight simulator that combines the fun of old-school “Simcade” flight games with the simulator foundation that I spent years developing for RotorSim. It’s far from complete, but porting over the work I did with RotorSim means I can spend my time making a much bigger game. The planned roadmap is big, but manageable:
- Many more interesting helicopters (all shapes and sizes)
- Get out of your helicopter and drive cars, trucks, complete missions, and explore
- 64km² world with cities, a coastline, forests, and secrets
- Expanded mission types, such as firefighting, more involved and complicated cargo operations, and smuggling
- NPCs! Thousands of citizens going about their daily lives and interacting with you
- The story of AeroAssist continues, with new characters and some old favorites coming back.
I’ve been developing new tools to help manage the development, such as generation systems for cities, forests, and weather. Now that those are active and functional, development can start moving much more quickly.
