What players say
Bought this 12 years ago, never reviewed it so HWG, Its a simulation of the moon lander, no arcade stuff here its a rough learning curve, equal and opposite reactions, piloting this machine is alot of fun, what starts are pretty tough soon becomes second nature, I picked it up again a few days ago and its still as good as it ever was. Not a deep game, pretty simple, pick up cargo and drop it off as another base give...

So it's 2024. And this game still slaps. Awesome experience, especially in VR. 12 years after launch, and it still is better looking than some titles you find deep in various VR stores.

Too difficult at early stage for a novice. As I understand it, IF you get good enough that you don't need better equipment, gyros etc. THEN you get it. This is why many people dump this gaming experience. High hopes great eye candy, then frustration. The more stable craft should be available for beginners. Not recommended, not fun, frustratrating. Nice code though.
