V-Air Traffic Control for Meta Quest is a simulation game from Josenildo that puts you in an airport control tower. Instead of flying planes, you work as the controller who clears them to land and take off. The game is distributed through SideQuest, where it was first listed in October 2020, and the developer describes the current build as a demo at a very early stage.
How it plays
Your main tool is a screen of flight strips. As each aircraft progresses, you press the matching buttons to authorize its next step. Two radar views help you keep traffic separated and moving: a ground radar for the tower (TWR) and a terminal radar for approach control (APP). You can grab and move the radar map, and zoom in with the right thumbstick while pointing at it.
- Change the active runway from its own screen and confirm the switch.
- Use binoculars to look out over the airfield; the thumbstick zooms them too.
- Operate switches on a light control panel.
- Adjust your height by holding X and moving the right stick.
- Pick a scenario after a briefing room and start screen.
The release notes also mention support for the PICO 4 and controller models for both Quest and PICO hardware. The developer lists more aircraft, a score system, mission challenges and other features as still to come, so expect a limited, in-progress experience today.
Comfort
Pressing the left thumbstick switches locomotion to teleport, a common choice for players prone to motion sickness in VR.
