Takeoff Permit
SteamTakeoff Permit is a challenging but satisfying puzzle game about sliding planes across a grid and getting them all into position on the runway, neatly. It sounds simple. It isn't.
You move all planes at once. They block each other, they get stuck, and you need to figure out the right sequence to line everyone up for takeoff. No timer, no randomness. Just you and the grid.

✈️ 50 handcrafted levels, each one a compact little headache.
🧠 Pure logic. Every puzzle has a solution. Finding it is on you.
🕹️ Arrow keys and your brain. That's the whole toolkit.
📊 Move tracker. Beat the level, then come back and beat your score.
🎵 Chill atmosphere. No pressure. Well, except the pressure plates.

The idea for this game was born at Denpasar International Airport during an extremely long delay on our flight to Flores Island. Turns out staring at planes on a runway for hours does things to your brain.
Got feedback, a bug to report, or just want to say hi? I'd love to hear from you.
And if Takeoff Permit gave you that satisfying moment, even better. That's why I make these games.
