Balsa Model Flight Simulator
Balsa will be published by The Irregular Corporation!
I know it's been a really long time, but today I'm finally able to share the news of what we've been up to most of this year.
Earlier this year we made a partnership with publisher The Irregular Corporation, which meant we were able to carry on with development through all of this year, which we couldn't have done without them.
We've got a new pre-release trailer up now:

As you can see we've got a slew of new features in the game, that I'm really excited to talk about, but I think I will do a breakdown of each one separately, as there simply is too much new content to go over in a single post.
Just to give you an idea though, the last update I mentioned here was version 0.8 of the game, where we were adding the first beginnings of aerial combat. Right now, the game is on version 0.16.
Anyhow, this is just a quick update on the latest news. My biggest thanks to everyone who stuck with us this far.
Cheers
Aerial Combat! Coming up on Balsa v0.8
Coming up on version 0.8, we've added a whole new set of features and new vehicle parts, including gun pods, which shoot paintballs.
The game already supports multiple different types of weapons, which use different ammo types. Coming up are two new gun pods: one low caliber fast-shooting machine gun, and one high caliber, slower-firing autocannon. More weapon types are going to be added in later updates.
Multiplayer dogfighting is not only going to be possible in v0.8, it is actually just the first of many features we are adding to support combat gameplay in Balsa.
Additionally, we've also got a new set of fighter-style parts, including a single-seater bubble canopy cockpit, so you can create aircraft designed for aerial combat.
Cheers
