Hello everyone,

A new update for the Airline Founder Demo will be released within the next few hours.

Demo v0.5 will include a number of improvements, fixes, and optimizations based on player feedback.

The Early Access build is ready for release and is currently awaiting an additional final review by Steam. I’ll release it as soon as the review is approved.

In the meantime, I’ll continue working on performance optimization, bug fixes, balancing, and other improvements.

Sorry about the wait, and thank you for your patience and support. I’ll continue to keep you updated on the latest developments in the Steam discussion hub. Once the game goes live, Steam will automatically notify players who have wishlisted it.
