People are no more.

In the world devoid of human life our sentient machines are left to simulate the life they once knew. With no one to watch them, the swarm of flying drones built for one purpose - race - compete each into eternity other across various landscapes and settings.

Thick Air drone design is inspired by automobile era of late XX century.

  • Split-screen multiplayer - challenge your best friend, see how that friendship holds up.
  • Brutal and unforgiving AI!
  • Various race modes.
  • Headbanging soundtrack!

  • HOTAS (actually any DirectInput device) and Vive motion controllers support.

What we got planned
  • Online multiplayer - coming soon!
  • Drone visual and (optional) performance damage
  • Performance tuning
  • Visual customization (paint it pink) and upgrades (put a spoiler on it)
  • Community-introduced features - we're listening to your every word!
