- Airport Master is created by people who love aviation
- Airport Master is created by people who love games and actually did play every single airport management game out there and saw all the flaws and all the great stuff
- Airport Master is the only game in the genre that takes things seriously without compromise on things like real-time, flight dynamics, ICAO-compliant procedures, specs, markings, sizes, weights
- Airport Master is the game forged with love to detail that modern aviation world has and the game that can teach you or your child about what aviation is about
- Airport Master is the game that is totally focused on how planes fly and how things work and not how they fail or don't work - no crashes nor accidents, instead real world numbers, performances, sounds recorded at the airfield - the game you and your kid would enjoy without any need to resort to violence )
- Airport Master is really a game that will make you think (airport economy management-wise) and may at some point bring you to bankrupcy and start over - but in that it excells at showing the real world of aviation
- Airport Master is full of details - if you're a gamer who recognizes the effort people may invest by going to local aero-club to measure hangar-space with ruller and talk to those oldie-type flight instructors to learn all ins and outs of a flight-school daily routines - this game will definitely make you feel warm inside!
- Airport Master aims really high and thus we both need your support and understanding that it's development would not end up by v.1.0 - there are so many great thing we can incorporate in Airport Master that we need your feedback and support to decide which deserve that and which can be omitted
Enjoy the Ultimate Airport Management Experience!

Looks like the game will never fullfill to its promises and that it will never get further updates. The game website no longer exists and it seems this company is now dead. Do not buy.
Game concept is a good one. But the bugs and lack of updates is the reason I have only played about two hours. The last updates were about a year apart. And the last update was in August of 2020, it is now October, 23rd 2021 and there has been zero word from the Developer. Everyone has literally given up on this game. If you look in the discussions the last post were last year. People were asking was the game dead and no word from the Devs. They have literally ghoasted everyone! So sick of so many developers just going silent and leaving us all with a steaming pile of Crap while they pay their bills with our hard earned money! Steam really needs to have a system in place where if a Developer fails to continue work on EA games that they will no longer be able to release EA games on the platform! You see to many cash grabs with Developers realizing an unfinished EA game every month grabbing our attention making a big payday on release only to never be heard from again. I wish steam would do more to protect it's players from developers who don't follow through on their products. It would be understandable if the Developer would have made a post as to why development has stopped and everyone would understand. But developers like this simply abandon the game pocket the cash and then put a new project on steam EA under a new developer name. Save your money and don't buy this game! It is playable for about an hour. The game is dead and there has not been any word from the developer in over a year!!
I don't understand this game at all. Ultimate management? All I got to do was purchase fuel and change prices in the cafeteria etc. I wish I spent my money on something else. I spent 27 minutes "playing" this game, and nothing ever happened except that I could see from my finances that I sold snacks to passengers which I never saw anything of. Watching the terminal inside is so unecessary when it's premade and nothing happens! I never found out if I could speed up the game. The clock counts seconds in real-time. My first flight was departing at 9:35, and the time was 8:40. I could just not stay an hour watching just to see it depart. I respect that making games takes hours and hours, but this is just too narrow with uninteresting extras. Who want's to purchase fuel and run a power plant if you're interested in just managing a busy airport (which you made busy by playing)? The time everything takes reminds me of free iPhone games. I would recommend Airport Inc./Tycoon 1. It get's god gamn annoying after a couple of hours playing but it's entertaining for the first two hours at least.
I shall ignore all the hoohaa about the eula.
The game itself had potential given it was in ea but it is now dead.
The one patch they did put out improved things slightly
A/c were quite well done
Buildings, vehicles and sound were poor but may have improved, but who can say?
Rubber band a/c about an hour and half in. No response from devs. So once again, stay away, this game is dead.
Nothing posted on forums for about a month from either devs or purchasers.
I would have recommnded this but as I said, I think it is now dead and I wish steam would pull it.
The game is mediocre, with strange controls and lack of any depth. Too early for Early Access.
Pros
- N/A
Cons
- Piss Poor graphics
- Controls are bad(Mouse accel. is awful)
- Developers have been very vocal in DMCA and trademark takedown on Youtube on anyone they wish. This mindset will kill their company.
My First Impressions "Review" is down below. Unfortunately for STICLI, they cannot break the law, and my video, as well as others in the community fall under Fair Use law. Fuck your illegal EULA.

Alright.
I tried to give this game a chance, seeing if it could have ANY chance of being a decent game in the future, bad developers or not.
Downsides:
I played the game for an hour and a half on twitch.tv and managed to get 4 planes to take off and one to land. Each plane only ever needed one button press to get the plane going, which meant that all I needed to do was click once every 23 minutes (I didn't need to click anything for the plane that landed). As the start of the game, you get information overload, which is pointless, considering that all you need to do is click on the icon ontop of a plane and it does all the work by itself.
The 'Flight School' planes, which from what I could tell are supposed to fly back after a while, both flew in a straight line before half an hour later going through the skybox and continuing off into the abyss, which was funny for a while but soon grew old. The terrain looks like something taken out of Google Maps but then rescaled into a 480p image whilst simultaneously being stretched over several miles.
The ingame camera is garbage. It's very loose and glides around a lot, but the way the camera moves changes between different camera views meaning you can never quite get used to one method of moving it.
90% of the features the game CLAIMS to have are actually 'To Be Added' when you attempt to use them - Which would be fine if it wasn't a $15 game, early access or not.
Everything just makes random noises. Seriously. There was a propellor plane that made jet engine noises, in the middle of the airport there was something that sounded like a mix between a highway and the ocean, the ATC tower had annoying clicking noises in, despite nobody actually being in ATC.
There's nothing to see. Once you've seen one plane takeoff or land, you've seen them all. The various vehicles that drive to and from the planes don't even have drivers, the bus has no passengers and the entire airport is empty of life.
Again, the textures are pure garbage. Most of them are low resolution, one of them is reused several times and looks out of place in all of its uses (The skid marks on the runway are neither realistic or high quality, they look like someone made them in MS Paint). There are several vending machines with "Doritoes" and "Lays" chips inside of them, barely visible through the *** textures. I highly doubt Doritoes or Lays would want their product in this game (Ironically, this is closer to Trademark infringement that the devs have on Jim Sterling).
Upsides:
The Refund button still works
Unity has built in 21:9 support
Overall score: FUCKING NOTHING / 10
Best part of the game... was the Refund.
Wait what?... I can not get a refund?. Oh yes I can I said to the Developers.
📌Your false End User License Agreement doesn't work here on Steam.📌
Unfortunately the game was broken at the EULA stage which has an incredibly abusive rights grabs within it, even going so far to claim it was against STICLI's rights for me to claim a refund on the game.
Beyond that it has one of the worst menu systems I've ever seen in a title. This game is in a very unfinished state even for an early access title, it's spartan, has terrible textures and a questionable framerate, although it does have a help screen. As such, it's impossible to recommend.
I've claimed a Steam refund on the game because of the EULA overreach and the awful menu system.
The in-game menus are textures. If you play with low settings, they are unreadable. I know it's an alpha, but in its current state it's unplayable and complete trash. I don't really see any potential here either, as these devs clearly have no idea what they're doing. Nothing inherently wrong with that, but this "game" is another clear example of why Steam Greenlight is being killed.
I'll be refunding this immediately.
REALLY bad game, sadly this isn't about the game - it's about the developers once again trying to take advantage of the legal system. Hope you loved my purchase, but I'll enjoy my refund even more. Oh and thanks for deleting my comment on your forum, try this one. -- oh and since I had to play 5 minutes before I refunded, it crashed twice during that time =(
In 7 minutes, I had 5 crashes, 2x game froze, and UI is so pixelated, I can't see what is what and that makes it unplayable (here is how UI looks like: http://imgur.com/RHVGepj). I know it's Early Access, but it should at least be able to run few minutest without crashes and freezes.
Also, first person controls are so poor, that it's impossible to move around in first person view....
So, no mater how interesting idea of this game sounds, avoid it at all cost until it's at some more playable version... if that ever happen.
Probably one of the worst sims ever created...ever. Horrendous game that has the gall to actually charge such a ludicrous price for such a ridiculously unwhelming release even for early access. Added to this, the devs appear to be complete a$$holes and try to trick you into believing you can't receive a refund for this flaming pile of hor$e$hit in direct conflict with Steam's refund policy. Horrible game, horrible devs.
Well, lets do this: For those who don't know, the developer of this game tried to take down several critical videos about this game with trademark strikes, citing the games EULA, which actually infringes at least Steams refund policies and maybe even current law (Right of Free Speech, etc.).
Examples of the Trademark Strikes:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B05hXRDm03I [Jim Sterling talking about his Problems with STICLI]
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBEkC26EZCA&t=332s [SidAlpha talking about the same Matter as stated above]]
Also, the game is really, REALLY bad, like, greenlight asset flip bad.....
So now I'll just sit back and enjoy my refund...
Before you consider buying this, have a look at this gameplay video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRJUO-wpLuU
Now let's cut to the chase. In my personal opinion, this game is boring as hell. It is also my personal opinion that it is a ripoff at its current price, namely that I have to pay money for it at all.
Oh, and that gameplay video? Here is a video of the same person, who got in an "argument" with the developer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B05hXRDm03I&t=602s
Here is a video of a copyright attorney and his professional opinion in the matter: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3OnXjnIGA0
Thank God for Jim Fucking Sterling Son!
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to refund this game. And no, they can't stop you from getting refunds as long as Steam offers them, no matter what they put in the EULA, under section 9.
Have a nice day :)
Oh, and STiCLi, some genuine advice for you: Don't go down this route. You will not survive the negative publicity that comes from this. Believe me. You already have a terrible reputation at this point and it will only get worse. You will not win this. Research Digital Homicide and their dealings with Jim Sterling. I'll tell you exactly what is going to happen if you continue to fight this. The more you try to silence criticism (and I'm not saying you are trying to silence criticism), the worse your reputation will get. It's EXACTLY what happened to Digital Homicide and they're banned from Steam and financially fucked. And that is because they couldn't deal with criticism. It's not too late! You can still turn this around. That's one option. You can just walk away from this and potentially save your reputation. You can listen to the criticism, no matter how harsh it is, and think of a way to improve your games. And of course not every bit of criticism is fair. But if you listen to it, you might make the best game you'll ever make. Another option is to keep fighting. But know this. If you choose the latter, you will destroy your reputation. And what happens when you have a bad reputation on Steam? People will hate you and refuse to buy your games. If you do choose the latter, that's completely fine. It's your choice. But if you do, remember the advice I gave you and imagine me saying "I fucking told you so" when it's too late to walk back.
I hope you choose the former and I hope you will listen to other people's criticism and make the best game you can make. If you choose the latter, it would be a shame, but also entertaining to watch.
Here is a video just for you. It explains exactly what happened when Jim Sterling criticized a game by Scott Cawthon. What followed was a lot of introspection and eventually, Five Nights at Freddy's. This is a developer who, at no point, tried to silence a critic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsOLvDzaFYY
EDIT: I screwed up the last link. Whoops!
UPDATE: Despite what that 5h1tty and abusive EULA might say, you CAN refund this game via the standard system. Just don't run this piece of garbage more than 2 hours, and you should be safe.
https://youtu.be/B05hXRDm03I
----
Yet another cheeky piece of junk "developer" trying to silence criticism via spurious underhanded tactics.
Don't support these m0th3r-foock1ng pieces of trash... And thank God for Jim fucking Sterling, son!
The game itself offers no content whatsoever and the visual design (I'm not even talking about graphics) makes my eyes hurt. It really makes Airline Tycoon look like a complex masterpiece of game design and it offers absolutly no justification for its price tag.
To make things even worse, the developers try to restrict basic consumer rights with an extremly overreaching (and therefore invalid) EULA, in which they even try to prohibit Steam refunds. To top things off, they try to prevent criticism with dubious copyright claims on Youtube.
I will enjoy my refund for this one.
Bought the game because of interesting premise and they saw that the developer put in EULA that limits, among other things, my ability to make videos of it (violating the laws surrounding fair use) and TRYING TO REMOVE ABILITY TO REFUND GAMES TO STEAM.
So... I am refunding it, despite what their silly eula may claim and leaving a warning to avoid this garbage.
Let this game grow for another six months or more. There isn't really any gameplay to speak of. It's more of a tech demo at this point.
Hi All,
I have given this game a little chance before i write this but unfortunatly at this stage i cant Support, love the idea and the concept just a little to early for public i feel
1. Game released far to early, even for a pre alpha, i can live with items not being in game, thats part of the Alpha stage. but the flight school aircraft have failed to return to the airfield and makes the game unplayable. (this should have been picked up with minimal testing!!!)
2. This isnt a managment game as such is very much a point a click, aircraft lands - click and AI takes care of it, i felt like i just order stuff to do stuff with 1 click.
3. No way to increase time and with buggy planes not coming home you just sit and wait then click once every 20-30 minutes
i really dislike giving a game a Thumbs Down, but at this stage wait for a few patches and fixes before purchase
Regards
TMTC1
You start with an airport, so nothing to build.
You just sit around waiting for airplanes to taxi and takeoff. No sense of running an airline or airport. The engine sound from the prop plane is just as loud when you are up close as when you are far away.
When the game starts you can set some settings, then another screen shows new game-continue- settings >> this setting screen does not work. Later in-game when you hit escape another menu pops up that shows another settings and THIS one works. You can change sound etc.
Controls feel clunky. You can "walk" around the terminal, but like everything else, everything is already built.
Right now, there is no sense of management or tycoon level game. You just sit around watching an airport.
Everything looks dark even when it is 10am in daylight. There's a taxi next to the control tower not sure why.
The airport doesn't look connected to any roadways.
I get this is Early Access, but so early it's not worth $15. Maybe, maybe $5.
Super dissapointed.
