All Versions of Boat Sim Elite

1.08

April 11, 2016

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. Adds requested feature, a new setting for max wave height (extreme waves on/off). Waves will only be (randomly) huge if enabled from the options page (menu/options). If deselected waves will vary but will stay relatively calm. Actual wave height is random, but this will enhance the experience depending on preference, and sets max wave height limit. Wish to support development? Check out our NEW app - Boat Sim Pro - this has all new boats, new realistic water and geographical features for navigating, as well as music, and even a new binocular view! New improved user interface and experience. We'll work to add these features to our other titles. We appreciate your feedback on our forum, on our improved website.

1.06

February 12, 2016

What's new; External camera view added for all 3 ships (user suggested) Improvements to prevent falling off ships. Fresh look and sound for main menu. We are grateful for all the positive feedback, we're committed to this app and encourage suggestions. We read the reviews, the app isn't intended to be a game, for people to jump off or for ships to sink, however we've incorporated reasonable suggestions and taken note of future ships based on reviews. Read more about the app development on our site. Happy sailing.

1.05

December 19, 2015

High resolution docks replacing most docks Scenery improvements Performance improvements Thank-you for all the suggestions, we'll work to add those including additional ships (as suggested) and a moving map. We'd ultimately like multi-player and more moving ships, and severe weather. In the meantime these older vessels can easily be navigated by dead-reckoning (using compass headings), the chart, and the radar that's already in each bridge and show the docks, as well as looking outside! If you fall overboard simply return to the menu, go to options and reset positions, this will put you back onboard, it's tricky to prevent all cases of this as the steps are steep and you have to be able to climb them, even if the boat is pitching. Our site is back-up with a forum and contact form for your suggestions. We're re-focused on this app, if you enjoy it and would like to support us / development, please consider leaving a review for this update, thank-you. Any issues please drop us a line.

1.03

August 22, 2015

More big changes with this update, based on suggestions! Cleaned up sailing screen, including; New - 'Cmd' button revealing vessel controls, including a new anchor and lights buttons, as well as the horn, chart and menu buttons, cleaning up the main sailing display. (We'll add more lights, but for now added ability to turn on and off). New - The bow thruster joystick has been moved above the main vessel steering joystick (bottom left) and made smaller, it's secondary to the main controls but still essential for docking. New - The wheel in the exploration ship now rotates, as well as the wind meter (depending on speed). New - Welcome text as you approach each island (with name of island), this helps identify where you are, so using the compass, heading, radar and position awareness, it's now easier to navigate, until a moving map is added. Enhanced wake around boats, see the wake and water spray! Improved waves - Waves more likely to be rough now. New - Two new cameras, a 'ramp' camera on the ferry to show you the aft view to enable docking up to a car ramp (future update), and a camera on the exploration vessel to help with docking. These are fixed views to simulate actual cameras, and have an effect added to give the impression of basic external cameras. There's a new camera button within the new 'Cmd' options. New - Enhancements to the main menu pages and change of music. We're laying the groundwork to add more ships, they are coming imminently, our focus has been on enhancing the underlying environment, prior to adding ships. The next update is already in progress, we had a extreme wave option added to this version however it made the player slide all over the place, including overboard, so we'll refine it and include it in a future update. We'll have started to improve our site so please post your ideas and feedback.

1.02

August 4, 2015

This update brings massive changes, for a new enhanced experience! You now start where you left off in each ship, so each voyage is different and a continuation of the previous trip. There's now a compass in each ship. A new method of climbing steps was used so the player can't climb off the side of the ship, but can climb steep steps around the ships (slow the boat if you struggle to climb, we've already corrected for the next version) A different horn was added to the exploration ship. Both ships are now in a single scenery level making it easier for us to improve the scenery in the next update. We added a reset button on the main menu to reset the position of both the player and ships should any issues occur. Enhanced the text on the main menu. Changed the main menu music. We are encouraged by the positive feedback, if you like the app please help with more feedback, or if you have any issues, please contact us directly, thank-you. We have a list of future features to add, including a movable map, selectable lights, improved docks, enhanced ship traffic, the cruise ship and speed boat etc. We will try to accommodate all reasonable requests, again for now we'd be grateful for positive feedback while we work on the next update, thank-you!

1.01

June 9, 2015

Thank-you for your positive feedback, we've made some improvements; De-cluttered deck of smaller vessel. You can now climb up ladder onto roof of smaller vessel's bridge. Performance enhancements. We appreciate your suggestions and positive feedback - we'll shortly add a cruise ship as suggested and continue to make performance improvements. *Did you know there's a lot of historic scenery items on some of the islands, find them and develop cruises your passengers will enjoy! If you enjoy the app please consider leaving feedback, happy sailing!

Price History of Boat Sim Elite

Description of Boat Sim Elite

Boat Sim Elite takes boat simulation to a whole new level, sail and walk the deck of your huge ships! Includes three large ships for you to sail, a large ferry, an exploration ship and now a cruise ship, each with with multiple decks. WALK around your ships - take a walk around the deck (a challenge in rough seas!) SAIL from the bridge - use the radar, map and compass to navigate. Dock ships by walking outside of the bridge and looking down at the dock, use the bow thrusters to maneuver the ship carefully to the dock side. Challenging harbors to dock at - maneuver the ship around a sea wall, or dock in busy boating areas. Dynamic day / night cycle - beautiful changing time and conditions as you sail, watch the sun come up, and stars at night. Scenic islands to explore, with lots of other boats that really float! Watch them ride the waves in rough seas! HUGE waves at sea to content with (random wave conditions). HUGE area of water to sail! Historic scenery items on some of the islands, find them and develop cruises your passengers will enjoy! By design there's no objectives, no score to get, simple relax and enjoy being the skipper of massive ships, in an open sim. So what are you waiting for, come on-board and take to the sea, sail large ships in changing conditions and see how good you are at docking these huge vessels! We're already working on the next version and appreciate the positive reviews from around the world, including; "Mind Blown!" "Wow this game is amazing, I love walking around the ferry in giant waves." - New Zealand "This game is amazing" - Canada The various boats and objects really float, the waves are dynamic and the conditions really change, therefore we recommend a newer device, without 50 other apps running for best performance! If you have any issues drop us a line.

Reviews of Boat Sim Elite

  • iPhone gamer

    I don’t mean to be rude but I really hate the camera angles there is no 3rd person free view and there is not much to do it gets boring fast I wasted $2 for this 😡☹️ and update the game it’s crap and there is only three ships I understand it’s two years old but it’s not worth the money

    Developer Response

    Sorry it wasn't for you, for ship enthusiasts an open sim can be very enjoyable, and in this app you can walk around the ships while also commanded them around various islands. A brand new version is in the works and we appreciate your feedback.
  • Very realistic except for one thing

    So, I love this sim, and it is fun to go and pretend to explore and stuff, but the least realistic thing I can think of is when I hit things accidentally, there is no apprehend damage. If you were it hit a rock at 25 knots then there would be a gash in the side of the boat, resulting in a sinking boat. I wish there was sinking, but I understand if Gary can't add it or won't. The point of the isn't to sink, but for a more realistic game, sinking is a big thing to add. Have a good day!

    Developer Response

    Great suggestions and feedback, thank-you. Due to software changes this title may not see further changes, however a new version built from scratch is about to be 'launched.' Appreciate your suggestions and please let me know of any changes or enhancements you'd like to see including the style of docks etc. I don't think underwater effects would be added, however a damage system can definitely be added, perhaps leading to sinking seen first from the ship, then an external view. Suggestions can be added on the website.
  • Great game but...

    I really like this games because it’s the only boat games where you can walk around... but can you please add some more ships I know it’s pretty hard to make a game and all but there is only 3 ships can you at least make a 5 or 6 then you would have a lot of options to chose from. And agin this is a great games and there’s a lot of good things... I also think you could add a storm mode where there is a tsunami to survive. That’s it that’s really all i would like to see and also thanks for lowering the price!
