We’re excited to share the official announcement trailer for our upcoming game, Couch Planes!
Couch Planes is a fast-paced arcade-style party game where players race, shoot, and out-fly each other in chaotic airborne matches. Whether you’re battling friends on the couch or taking on the world online, the goal is simple: be the craftiest pilot in the sky.
👥 Local & Online Multiplayer: Up to 4 players in split-screen and 12 online, with the flexibility to mix local and online pilots for a truly seamless experience
💥 Power-Up Pandemonium: Smash mid-air balloons to grab game-changing power-ups like homing rockets, speed boosts, and exploding mines. Items are cleverly balanced by position, ensuring every race remains competitive and unpredictable.
🌍 Tracks that Fight Back: Navigate 15 handcrafted maps filled with environmental hazards and beneficial surprises, from swirling tornadoes and crumbling cliffs to power-up windmills and treasure-hauling steam trains.
✈️ Easy to Fly. Hard to Ace: With simple, arcade-style controls, anyone can jump in and fly, but mastering advanced maneuvers like barrel rolls, drifts, and flips is the key to becoming a true stunt master of the skies.
🎨 Full Throttle Style Progress: Earn a wide range of cosmetics as you play, including unique skins, trails, decals, and effects. All cosmetics are purely aesthetic and do not affect performance, ensuring a fair, skill-based competition for everyone.
📅 The Skies are Always Calling: Couch Planes features seasonal events, a rotating shop, ranked ladders, and continuously evolving content, providing endless reasons to jump back into the cockpit.
In addition to its core racing experience, Couch Planes will feature various exciting game modes, which will be revealed at a later date.
We’ve been working hard to balance casual fun with mechanical depth, and we’d love your feedback on what you see.
If it looks like your kind of chaos, feel free to wishlist on Steam, it helps us a lot at this stage: 👉 [dynamiclink href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/2431740/Couch_Planes/"]
