Description Fly8
Fly8 is a single-player flight simulator that, in the author's words, 'places more emphasis on dynamics than cosmetics'. It is written in 'C' and is a reworked and updated version of an earlier 1974 program also called Fly8, which ran on a PDP-15.
Although the player can view the game from different viewpoints, the screen always shows the forward view with a HUD display in the center of the screen. It was intended to be used with a joystick but can be piloted with the mouse if there is no joystick, or with the keyboard if nothing else. All other controls for weapons, landing gear, etc. are handled with one-touch keyboard controls.
The object of the game is to shoot down enemy aircraft while avoiding taking damage. Successfully landing on a runway replenishes the weapons used and repairs damage.
