Heliborne is a multiplayer online vehicle combat game focused around Rotary Wing aviation and combat. The team developing Heliborne is a small team of multi-national developers headquartered in Lithuania. Heliborne has been in "full time" development using the Unity Engine since January, though development started nearly two years ago and took place during our free time, we're now in full time development and working on making Heliborne the best game it can possibly be. Current state of Heliborne Heliborne is currently in a very early Alpha testing phase. The focus currently being on flight model testing, weapons and vehicle balance, map design and balance, and performance. We've opened the project to nearly 1,000 Alpha testers and will continue to invite more as development progresses with a goal of reaching a beta state sometime in Q1 2016 with Early Access. Current Features: 2 Principle Scenarios focused around two era's of helicopter aviation and combat. Vietnam and Afghanistan. Heliborne currently has 29 air assault, reconnaissance and attack helicopters ranging from the 1950’s to 1990’s "King of the Hill" Capture point scenarios involving ground troops and units Up to 10 players per team in battles Tactical gameplay Public bug and developer tracking with polls allowing community feedback. Why is it important for us to be in Early Access? We are a relatively small international team, and being on Early Access will give us the resources and feedback we need to continue development and make Heliborne the best game we can possibly make it. We currently have public bug and development trackers, which players can use to vote on new features, priority of implementation of those new features and submitting issue reports to the development team. The Future?
