Lunar Module semi-simulator. Kind of a revamp of that old game Lunar Lander.

From the website
---------------------------------------
"Lunar Flight is a game about flying in a low gravity environment with almost no atmosphere.

Unlike flying fixed wing aircraft on Earth the lack of atmosphere on the Moon means there is no conventional lift or aerodynamics.
Instead the Lunar Module used rockets & small jets for propulsion and adjusting its orientation.

The real Lunar Module could not fly as it does in Lunar Flight and was only used for descent on to the moons surface where it remained.

Lunar Flight is a semi-simulation focused more on fun than on realism, partly inspired by the original Lunar Lander game in the Arcades.

You wont be flying missions based on the real Lunar Module and the maps are completely fictional and not based on locations on the moon.

Instead the Maps are designed to best accomodate the flight dynamics and present interesting challenges
Features:

* Completely Physics based simulation.
* Free Flight, Time trials & Scenarios
* Online Leaderboards
* Realistic Looking Cockpit with working instruments
* Multiple view points
* Immersive Realistic Moon Environment"

-----------------------------------------
And it is free!!!!

bummer... I had hoped it would have been just as addictive... Might have to grab the original again.

Does everyone with a Rift own this game?

Reason for asking is that is it $5 on steam right now but $10 gets a 4 pack. If someone doesn't have this, I will buy the 4 pack and send you a copy for xmas

Unless someone tells me to not waste a fiver as its shit :D

It's a nice immersive experience in the rift but I didn't play it for long (82 mins according to steam). There didn't seem to be much to the gameplay. Not bad for $5 I guess and better than 99% of the free rift demos :)

I've got no idea if it's any good, but I could probably go halves with you for the 4 pack Stu?

Its on special Pete for 50% off but has yet to appear as a daily deal.

What I will do is buy a 4 pack when it comes on special special. If it doesn't, I will grab the 4 pack for a tenner as that will be the price through the sale period :up:

God Im tight :D

If anyone else wants a copy (poor non Rift users even) then advise in here.
