Go For Launch: Mercury is the first installment in a series of simulations chronicling the early days of space flight. With full integration for either a standard computer monitor or full VR via a headset GFL:Mercury will take you on the ultimate adventure into space and let you re-live the exact experiences of those early pioneers, the Mercury Seven.

The Alpha demo puts you in the cockpit of Mercury-Redstone 3 “Freedom 7”, the first American manned space mission. Every detail of the cockpit, systems and flight have been meticulously researched to be as authentic as possible.

What you experience is exactly as it was seen by astronaut Alan Shepard on the morning of May 5 1961 as he sat in his capsule atop a modified Redstone missile.

If you enjoy the demo why not help us develop it into a full game here – http://kck.st/1pygkt4
