The full game will be released soon and now we are happy to let you play the Sky Haven Demo. In this version full gameplay from 1916 to 1940 is available. Though this is not a full game, the demo lets you experience the base gameplay features: construction, research, service management, and flight planning.

However please note that the game is in development and some performance and stability issues are possible. If you want to get a polished game please wait till the full release.

Hello all!

Today we decided to move the release by 30 days, to November 28th.

Understanding your disappointment and frustration, first of all, we apologize. We understand this being upsetting for everyone, but we are confident that the frustration of a non-working game is much worse.

Apologies aside, this is not all we have for you.

In the coming days, as soon as the approval passes, a free demo version for everyone will appear on Steam. The demo version will be available for the period of the game from 1916 to 1940. Keep in mind that this is not the final version and it does not include all the functionality, you will still be able to feel the game and it may be easier for you to wait for the actual release.

Hi everyone!

No release in 2020Q3 took place. The stability and completion of features, unfortunately, did not allow this to happen. We have underestimated how much 2020 has impacted our productivity and plans.

We understand that this situation may upset you and we understand your anger. It is well deserved. All we can do is work even harder and still release the game as quickly as possible.

The whole team understands this and we are working on the game with maximum intensity. All efforts are thrown into the game, even at the expense of communication (sorry again). All we need is a little more time.

However, realizing our commitment to the community, we decided to set a specific release date. And so, Open Beta Release will be on the 28th of October 2020. This is the final date.

Yours working hard,
Real Welders Team

Hello all!

Our sudden update is here. Last month we focused on the big update “Take Off”. The name means this will be the Early Access/Public Beta update.

Basic side traffic. Pax and resources arriving from the external world.
Custom terminal building. There will be (yet) limited tools. Though still enough for custom terminal planning.
Internal objects: Entrance, Gate, Checkin, and several booths.
Playable to 1970. Sunset of the propeller aircraft era and jetliners.
Some small extra features we don't want disclosure yet. Surprise.

So when?

The year turned out to be very rich in trials. Both global and local, associated only with our team. This left its mark on our roadmap. We had to sacrifice certain functionality that will still be added in future releases.

We are often asked about specific release dates. We avoid specific dates just because we don't want to let you down.

However, we are still planning to prepare a release in 2020Q3! Our backers will be the first to get the build, and if everything goes well the game will be released on Steam!
