WaggaSim

I am a paraglider pilot in real life and this physics model is the most accurate I have ever played. It's an absolute blast doing fat wingovers, must have taken years for the developer to tune. I recommend using a controller and fine tuning the sensitivity for each glider. If you don't tune your controls it will be difficult to launch since the glider always starts at 0 ground speed. You will need to apply both brakes to prevent an overshoot unless you set a wind speed. As for developer recommendations I want the ability to change time of day, more maps, better sfx, and better performance.

Cool concept and seems like it holds a lot of promise. However it has a lot of rough edges for an initial release. I can't say I can recommend it at the moment. Some issues so far: 1. I have to unplug other controllers when playing the game. (There's no way to differentiate between their input and my gamepad's) 2. I couldn't figure out how to launch from the ground rather than the air. 3. It seems like there's just one map out at the moment. 4. The glider will surge forward on launch and frontal if you don't catch the surge. (That makes sense if you're launching off the ground and can control when to bring the wing up, but doesn't make sense if you spawn in the air)

Easily the most realistic paragliding simulator out there! I can't wait to see what the next major update has to offer! My only complaints are that the wings feel a bit too efficient. Which makes landings a little challenging. They just want to glide forever. The brakes seem to have a bit too much flare and can cause extreme ballooning on landing. A lot of this can be fixed by tweaking brake travel length and rates, but I have found it challenging using wasd and arrow key control. In the future I would love to see more refinement of the wing and weather physics, new maps, more wing presets, a more intuitive wing design suite, AND RESERVES!!! I love to use this simulator for acro training. I always make a point of acknowledging when its time for a reserve deployment, but I wish I could press a button and throw my reserve to reinforce good decision making. I have been following this project since the alpha release and am so impressed with how far it has come!

Although it is still in a very early alpha I'm having a blast playing it. It has a really steep learning curve at the begining but when you start to get the hang of the controls and the flow it gets you hooked. Recommended if you really enjoy realistic simulators. Congratulations to the developer! I hope you keep bringing updates to the game.

It's still very basic, has only 1 map, I needed to fiddle with controller mapping but after I found a working config I started enjoying trying to termal or keep the wing open in lee rotors. Learned to do some proper helico and wingovers too. It definitely has potential, the physics are really nice and if smoothed out and expanded could become really fun and useful. Hope the dev will keep on working on it. edit. (I'm also a paraglider pilot)
