Big Fat Simulations

I recently sat down with Fragments of Silicon, a video game review podcast, for a 30-minute interview about my work and games.

Hidden deep in the jungle…
a single dirt strip cuts through the dense canopy.

Two aircraft.
A few weathered buildings.
And the beginning of something much bigger.

Watch it transform into a thriving aviation hub in Airport Madness: Evolution, coming June 26, 2026.

Coming soon…

What starts as a quiet jungle airstrip won’t stay that way for long.

A NEW AIRPORT MADNESS IS COMING

We’re thrilled to announce our next big thing, arriving June 26, 2026.

This isn’t just another sequel. It’s a whole new direction for the series.

Introducing Airport Madness: Evolution. Airports that evolve over time.

You begin with a humble airfield. One runway, long enough for a twin engine to land. No gates, and a trickle of traffic. As demand grows, the airport grows with it: more runways, taxiways, gates, and aprons, transforming into a high-pressure international hub.

You’ll manage traffic across a wide range of locations:

• A Caribbean island paradise
• A Swiss Alps mountain resort
• A dense North American big-city hub
• A harbor city surrounded by skyscrapers and mountains
• A tropical jungle gateway
• A massive Middle Eastern desert mega-hub

What’s new in Airport Madness: Evolution?

• 50 all-new aircraft models, inspired by real-world airlines
• Vastly improved scenery, thanks to a brand-new terrain generation system
• More realistic airport surroundings, including improved trees and foliage
• New controller tools, including Stop/Go taxi control, Pushback-Only commands, and “Make 360” instructions for better airborne sequencing

Six airports at launch, with more coming later. Future updates are already planned, including ideas like an icy northern airfield carved into frozen fjords and a high-desert airport perched above vast red-rock canyons.

So… what is Airport Madness: Evolution?
It’s the most ambitious Airport Madness we’ve ever built.

I’m playing Airport Madness 3D: Volume 2 and casually testing the latest update.

This is just a straightforward gameplay session — no commentary script, no edits, while I keep an eye on recent fixes and overall stability.

This update includes:
• Fixed trophy issues at Princess Juliana and Las Vegas
• Resolved an occasional taxiway routing issue at Princess Juliana
• Improved aircraft taxi-turn physics for smoother ground movement
• General stability and reliability improvements

If you enjoy watching controlled chaos, this one’s for you.

We’re tightening things up in 3D: Volume 2 and knocking out some long-standing issues:
• Fixed Princess Juliana trophy problems
• Fixed Las Vegas trophy issues
• Fixed the Princess Juliana occasional “grass shortcut”
• Improved aircraft taxi-turn physics

If you’ve spotted anything else that feels off, now’s the time to tell us 👀

I’ve just added voice recognition to Approach Control: Remastered. You can now speak directly to the aircraft and they’ll respond and comply with your instructions in real time.

A download link is in the comments below.

This works on PC and Mac, and supports core ATC commands like:

- Climb / Descend
- Speed assignments
- Heading changes

No menus. No clicking. Just talk.

This video shows how it works, what commands are supported, and how it changes the feel of the game. It adds a whole new level of realism, and makes controlling traffic feel very different.

If you’ve ever wanted to actually sound like an air traffic controller while playing, this feature was built for you.

Thanks to everyone who’s been playing and giving feedback!
