Editing Air Control (section)

== Reception ==
The game was crushed on the day of its release by negative reviews criticizing the graphics, gameplay, story, controls and almost everything else, and the game was hailed as the worst game ever to hit Steam, earning the lowest rating on this platform in history, even worse than games like FlatOut 3 or Airport Simulator 2014, and even as one of the worst games of all time and compared to games such as Big Rigs.

''GameSpot'''s Kevin VanOrd awarded the game a 1/10 which is the lowest rating that can Gamespot give for the game (only ''Big Rigs and Ride to Hell: Retribution'' got that grade beside this game), stating it was unthinkable how anyone could ask for money for this "broken scam masquerading as a computer game".

''Air Control'' was mocked and ridiculed by gamers to the extent that Valve pulled it from Steam months after it was released. Darklordjadow1 was scared by the fact that this game is where Valve draws the line of [[Steam Greenlight|quality required for a game to be on Steam]]. He also said, "''Air control is not a game, it is a simulation of the effects of extended drug use!''". Tyler Wilde, writing for PC Gamer, called the game "one giant bug" and advised players not to purchase the game. Wilde also found that the game contains audio from the Delta Air Lines safety video.

Caddicarus listed ''Air Control'' as the #2 worst game of 2014 behind ''[[The Slaughtering Grounds]]'', and he was unable to describe the game because he was laughing so much at the game's quality, before calmly saying it was delisted from Steam.

The game is known in the French online community for being reviewed by TheFantasio974 (aka just "Fanta"); he describes it as ''"the worst game on Steam"'' and is in constant shock and hilarity at the surrealistically bad quality of the game. During the "''Flappy Bird''" segment, he sings along to the Faidherbe Square music, repeating ''"I am strolling in my plane because it is totally awesome"'', which achieved a level of memetic status.

Due to massive plagiarism, BartekGM compared the game to Limbo of the Lost and unlike the second game gave a 0/10 for literally everything when the first game had at least a 2/10 for audio. NRGeek was also harshly critical of the game and even said he wanted to know what the origins of the game were, even stating that it was an alpha version rather than a game.
