Overall, the graphics are generally well-received, with many users praising the visuals as great and convincing, particularly in the context of futuristic flying vehicles. However, there are criticisms regarding the lack of graphical options and improvements in gameplay, with some users noting that while the graphics are decent, they do not compensate for other gameplay issues. Performance is noted as good, but the absence of customizable settings limits the experience for players with higher-end PCs.
“Let me start off by saying that the visuals are great.”
“Nice performance and good graphics and audio.”
“Visuals are great and unlike air car, it had an in-game HOTAS controller menu.”
“If it were an improvement in some way; a bigger city, better graphics, better gameplay and control, but there are simply no improvements.”
“There are no real graphical options, except for rain and traffic intensity.”
“If the virtual controls worked properly and they added graphics options so people with higher-end PCs could utilize what they have, I'd give a thumbs up.”

The music in the game is generally well-received, enhancing the immersive cyberpunk atmosphere with soothing ambient tracks that complement the vibrant city environment. While some players appreciate the ability to play their own music, the lack of a built-in playlist feature is a notable drawback. Overall, the soundtrack contributes positively to the experience, despite some technical issues with gameplay.
“You fly around freely in a cyberpunk environment that is also a very lively city with lots of lights and air traffic with the comfort of soothing rain on your windows. With the right music in the background, this is perfect to get away from the world for a while.”
“Nice city and music, slow aircar.”
“For now, playing your own music while taking a joy ride should be enough to wet your appetite for a cyberpunk type environment.”
“The only bad thing I can say is that there isn't a built-in playlist option, so you have to use Ctrl + Alt to switch between the media player and the game to cue up your music after each song unless you set up a playlist via Windows beforehand.”
“If you configure the audio, controller sensitivity, and flight environment, you can enhance the experience while playing your own background music via Windows Media Player.”
“For now, playing your own music while taking a joy ride should be enough to wet your appetite for a cyberpunk-type environment.”

The stability of the game has received mixed reviews, with users reporting significant issues such as buggy controllers and throttle controls, particularly on specific hardware like the Oculus and HP Reverb 2. While some praise the overall performance and visuals, the recurring complaints about bugs detract from the experience.
“Great demo, runs great, looks great.”
“My Oculus controllers were too buggy.”
“This is a nice start and an interesting upgrade to Aircar, but I have tried with my Samsung Odyssey and my brand new HP Reverb 2 controllers, and the throttle controls are too buggy.”
“Buggy mess.”

Reviewers express disappointment with the current lack of a structured story or missions, feeling that the gameplay primarily consists of aimless exploration rather than engaging narratives or character interactions. There is a desire for future updates to introduce a core game loop with missions and more meaningful activities.
“But if the devs are reading, being able to walk around, buy homes, do deliveries, and have a core game loop or story and characters would be unbelievable.”
“We still plan to make this experience a game with missions and more ships.”
“But if the devs are reading - being able to walk around, buy homes, do deliveries and have a core game loop or story and characters would be unbelievable.”
“In terms of gameplay, I was kind of expecting some sort of missions or whatever, but right now, it is just flying around the city in what feels like a paper airplane.”
“At this time, there doesn't seem to be any missions to engage in, so all you're really doing is taking a joy ride around a futuristic city.”

The gameplay is considered bland with awkward controls, and while it introduces some new features, it does not match the quality of similar games like Aircar.
“The gameplay is bland and the controls are awkward.”
“The mechanics feel outdated and unresponsive.”
“There is a lack of variety in gameplay, making it repetitive.”

The optimization of the game is criticized for poor performance, particularly on the Valve Index, where it appears subpar without supersampling. While increasing supersampling to 200% improves visuals, it significantly hampers performance, indicating a lack of balance between graphics quality and frame rate.
“Performance is pretty bad - at least on a Valve Index. Without supersampling, it looks terrible.”
“With supersampling of 200%, it looks okay (although still not great), but then performance takes a nosedive.”

Players appreciate the game's quality but are frustrated by the excessive ads, especially considering the high price of $22 (or $25 with tax) for the game.
“The game is good, the graphics and quality are impressive, but the ads are overwhelming. Paying $22 (or $25 with tax) and still having to deal with ads for your bridge ship is just too much.”
