Kerbal Space Program creator is relaunching his physics sandbox followup with a new name

Balsa Model Flight Simulator launched into Steam Early Access last year, to positive reviews and few sales. It is, like its developer's previous game Kerbal Space Program, about building a machine designed to fly, crashing it back to earth, then constructing something better.


Now its developer has announced they're doing something similar with the game itself. Balsa Model Flight Sim will relaunch later this year with a new name, Kitbash Model Club, a more ambitious physics construction sandbox, and a plan to release as a complete game rather than into early access. Existing owners of Balsa Model Flight Simulator will get Kitbash Model Club for free.

Formerly known as Balsa Model Flight Simulator, Kitbash Model Club provides the freedom to design, build, explore and battle with model RC vehicles.

Spend your time creating in the workshop, explore the varied landscapes of Wirraway Island by air, land, and sea, or jump into combat in PvP or PvE mode.

    The team at Floating Origin has been working hard on expanding the original vision of Balsa Model Flight Simulator. The culmination of this hard work will be released as Kitbash Model Club this year.

  3. What happens if I bought Balsa Model Flight Simulator in Early Access? Will I still be able to play?
    If you bought Balsa Model Flight Simulator, the last version of the game will remain in your library where you can play it whenever you’d like.

  4. Do I have to buy Kitbash Model Club if I own Balsa Model Flight Simulator?
