About the Game

DELIVER SKETCHY CARGO

After a wild night in paradise, you and your friends wake up on a remote island owned by a cartel. To start your lives anew, you must take to the skies and fly questionable missions for your new “employers”. Take contracts, stack cargo, and deliver it across a vast tropical archipelago.

COOPERATIVE SMUGGLING

If you’re going to take shady smuggling flights, you might as well do it with friends, right? Experience the life of a cartel pilot in co-op. Just don’t forget to grab a crate of cold beer before the next mission.

PREPARE AND MAINTAIN YOUR PLANES

Get your hands dirty in the hangar to ensure your planes stay airborne and reliable. Yes, it’s a chill smuggler life on these islands, but a well-maintained plane is your only way home.

STYLE IN THE SKIES, STYLE ON LAND

Express your style by customizing both your pilot and your aircraft. Choose from a variety of outfits and design custom liveries for your planes. If you’re going to be the most wanted pilots in the region, you might as well look good doing it.

TROPICAL ARCHIPELAGO AWAITS

Explore a vast world of sun-drenched islands and breathtaking ocean views. Navigate through clear skies or prepare to show your piloting skills when violent tropical storms hit the area.
