It is not every day we lead an anti-ship attack against a World War 2 era resupply convoy, but it is possible in the mission editor of Sky On Fire: 1940. Landing hits on these heavily laden transports and their escorts results in some truly massive explosions. #flightsim #indiegame

Though the UH-90 Ibis is a utility helicopter, it can participate in saturation attacks with its internally mounted revolving anti-tank guided missile launcher. Here an Ibis fires missiles over terrain at datalinked targets. #flightsim #indiegame #nuclearoption

This is probably one of the coolest clips I've gotten when testing and this isn't even polished yet but I really feel like sharing!

Lakehopper by @epicphoton.bsky.social is an upcoming seaplane focused indie flight game that got us thinking about the difference between flying an aircraft and operating an aircraft in flight simulation. #indiegame #flightsim

In the map DCS: Cold War Germany by Ugra Media there are three locations featuring Project 12321 / Aist-class LCACs. Each location has varying amounts of them with scenery showing an amphibious assault. These are easy places to build missions fast in the mission editor. #DCSWorld #flightsim

We ended our time with the latest SimplePlanes 2 playtest by tuning our Yawman Arrow controller profile while "backseat flying". Being passenger and pilot at the same time was quite interesting. #flightsim #indiedev

We start 2026 with an article about an indie dev World War 2 flight sim lite that has flown "beneath our radar". Sky On Fire: 1940 is a still in development title available on PC and mobile devices. #flightsim #indiegame |

oh also cool poster of my game's harrier.

I made more posters about related vehicles but I'm going to be slowly posting them, just so I have something to post.

When wandering around the home to complete the latest mission, you never know what challenge will come next. We were not expecting an intense encounter with an enemy ace in House Fighters: Total Mess. #flightsim #indiegame

The growing presence of Ace Combat 3: Electrosphere is undeniable. With Project Aces going from sidestepping it in the year 2000 to steadily increasing its presence up to now, it is time to talk about this resurgence. #ACECOMBAT #flightsim
Ace Combat 3: Resurgence Towards Revival?
Discuss the ever building presence of Ace Combat 3 appearing in more modern Ace Combat games. Could this resurgence lead to a reasonable remake?

It is great to see the Mil Mi-8 Hip (known as Condor) flying in a civilian capacity. Far from battlefields, this medium lift helicopter is great for large scale rescue missions in Rotor Sim by Immaculate Lift Studio. #flightsim #indiegame
