I’ve been building a browser-based vehicle sandbox over the past few months, and it’s finally playable

I will continue polishing the game daily so there is more to come :D but the core is in place. I would really love to add multiplayer soon.

This is really cool, spent a bit of time playing with it. Tried flying the plane but couldn’t get it to gain altitude.

If you’re planning multiplayer, it could be really fun to lean into that like racing builds or even simple combat between vehicles.

Try adding more helium! And thanks, I would really like to explore pvp battles like they had in Robocraft at some point. Battling each other with your own creations seems very interesting.
