Fly past the horizon. Get2Orbit is an open-world flying sandbox that starts on a in the air and ends among the stars. TAKE FLIGHT Barnstorm across an endless procedurally generated world — bank through valleys, follow rivers, buzz forests and lakes. Land anywhere, climb out, and explore on foot. REACH ORBIT Taxi to the launch site, board the rocket, and fly the climb to space yourself. Make orbit, dock with the ring station, and live among the stars. WALK THE MOON Touch down at the lunar base, drive the buggy across the regolith, and grow crops in the greenhouse dome to keep yourself fed. DOWN TO EARTH There's a whole world below the flight path: set up camp, fish the rivers, paddle a canoe, sleep under the stars. MAKE IT YOURS Add wing guns, guided missiles, bombs, a parachute for mid-air bailouts, and the legendary P-51 Mustang.
