Command airships in a simulation that blends structured missions with multi-station crew operations. Players navigate vessels over a steampunk mega city, leveraging VR to emphasize slow movement and vast scale. Wild spectacles unfold at varying distances, enhancing the sense of grandeur.
This Early Access PC title draws from classic bomber sims and mission-driven flight games. Crew members handle stations across the airship during operations. Fans of deliberate-paced VR simulations that prioritize spectacle and immersion will find a focused experience here.
Airship Commander is my attempt to cram together a Wing Commander inspired mission structure, with the multi-station B-17 bomber sim popular in 1990s. Except with airships. Over a steampunk mega city one.
The game is all about doing what VR does well. Namely move slowly, communicate a tremendous sense of scale, and have all kinds of wild spectacle occurring around the player at different distances.
