Haven't played this in like 15 years but it was a very sick game

Simple, yet engaging arcade flight game, distantly similar to old Flash games in a good way. Super fun if you play with friends. Absolutely amazing if you play with friends AND some booze. Pretty much dead if you play on public servers.

Was $5 (USD) on SALE upon release, which seems like it was in 2009. This was my record: 6 Sep, 2010 Altitude Purchase $4.99 USD A lot of people played that weekend it was a lot of fun at the time because the game was sort of viral, but it died off pretty quickly. I noticed it's now free which is probably best. It can be a couple of hours of fun as long as you have enough players. It's a simple little arcade flying bomber game.

Arcade arena games but you play as planes. Things making sure you don't stall matter a lot in this game. The multiplayer servers are basically dead (the game is +15 years old so that's not a surprise) but the bot support is pretty good

The exploitability of its netcode offers freedom—cheat engines, server hacks—proving that broken systems birth their own counter-cultures.
