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.
