Draft:Spaceflight Simulator

Spaceflight Simulator is a 2D space flight simulation video game developed and published by Štefo Mai Morojna for iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows. In the game, players build rockets to explore different planets. The game features a realistic orbital physics engine, allowing for various real-life orbital maneuvers such as Hohmann transfer orbits and bi-elliptic transfer orbits. As of July 2024, the game has more than 10 million downloads on Google Play.

The game features a 1:20 scale and a 1:1 of the Solar System, which includes the Sun, the inner planets and their satellites.. There is a DLC that adds Jupiter and the Galilean moons. The game also supports adding modified planets and parts, with mods for the PC version only.

On June 5th and 6th, 2020, the 1.5 Foundation Update was released, reworking the base of the game, and allowing more content to be added in the future. There are no plans to release on Xbox and Playstation, but the developer has said that they will bring it to the Nintendo Switch in the future.

Gameplay
When they enter the game a player can create worlds, choosing a name and solar system. Difficulties go from Easy (1:20 scale), Hard (1:10 scale), and Realistic (1:1 scale). Realistic is only available on PC. Both sandbox and challenge mode are available along with various cheats. A third mode known as career mode was in beta, but never finished development.

In the build menu players can drag parts of various sizes and uses together to build rockets. Symmetry and staging options are available. Players can save their builds as "blueprints" and enable various cheats.

When a player launches a rocket they start on a launch pad on Earth. The player can activate and deactivate parts by clicking on the part itself, such as Engines and Reaction Control Systems (RCS) or using staging. Players can timewarp and there is also a map that shows every object the player has launched in that world, celestial objects, atmospheres, orbits, and object names. The map also includes a docking assist.

From here, gameplay is a sandbox. Popular projects include building space stations, rovers, crewed return missions, and surface bases There are three video tutorials to help the player, along with the in-game tutorial.
