Just a reminder that, while the game is still in development, you can get in on the action and test the Alpha content today! Just visit this link and select your package! - https://igg.me/at/gfl/x/13990671

By selecting any tier that gives access to alpha and beta builds you will have access to all current and future builds of the full game, sent to you via email link as they are developed. Currently the additional content allows you to test out John Glenn's legendary space capsule "Friendship 7", in a stable orbit around Earth. Without the time contraints of the demo you are able to sit back and get to grips with the spacecraft while the earth rolls past beneath you with stunning sunsets, starry night skys and city lights.

With each update you will see more features added, building up to the eventual early access release on steam (when you will receive your full steam key).

New VIVE camera reset function! No more floating outside your ship.

Hi all, just a quick update to say the latest build now has a brand new camera reset function for HTC Vive. Just press the track pad on either controller to reset orientation!

Hopefully this will bypass all issues caused by the old method (resetting seating position in Vive menu).

Re-live the early days of space flight in Go For Launch: Mercury, the first in a series of games exploring the early days of space flight.

With full integration for either a standard computer monitor or full VR via a headset GFL:Mercury will take you on the ultimate adventure into space and let you re-live the exact experiences of those early pioneers, the Mercury Seven.

Key features


Full support for Oculus Rift (CV1 and DK2) and HTC Vive (with full motion control).

7 fully functioning, interactive spacecraft interiors and exteriors. Each individually crafted to accurately portray the changes in design and loadout.

7 complete playable missions from the mercury program (including the cancelled Freedom 7II)

Detailed models of the Atlas and Redstone rockets on historically accurate launch pads (and the ability to witness test launches from the ground!).

A full scale recreation of earth as seen from low orbit.

A virtual recreation of mission control including control room, spacecraft hangar and pilot's office.

GFL: Mercury is being designed from the ground up to be as authentic and accurate as possible. It is our hope to offer it as an educational product as well as an entertainment project, suitable for use by schools and colleges to educate and engage students in the fields of astronomy, spaceflight and history.tory.
