The gameplay is centered around impressive flight mechanics that are easy to grasp, making it accessible even for short play sessions. However, players suggest improvements, such as more nuanced controls for hunting and the ability to adjust speed without altering altitude. Despite some limitations in gameplay depth, it remains a recommended experience for those interested in bird flight simulation.
“This is a great game with really good flight mechanics.”
“Even at only 14 minutes of gameplay, I found it very easy to get a handle on.”
“Could use better flight mechanics for hunting, like being able to fly slower or turn without needing to press a trigger.”
“Even with the current build lacking much in real gameplay, I would still recommend this for anyone who has looked into finding a good bird flight simulator.”
“One quick suggestion about the flying mechanics: being able to flap 'forward' to slow your speed without rotating your body up or down.”
