About A Glider's Journey
A Glider's journey is a game about exploring a relaxing, colorful low poly world; while still challenging your piloting skills till the very end of each level.
The very simple controls (one joystick, no throttle no rudder) makes it very easy to pickup, but hard to master, thanks to the physics-based flight model.
"HARD-CORE FLIGHT EXPERIENCE"
It offers a realistic flying experience, quite similar to an actual flying wing, where stalls and spins are a definite possibility...
A "Very Easy" mode with simplified physics is also available, if you are rather seeking a more relaxing low-poly world exploration experience.
- 15 levels featuring a variety of unique low poly biomes. (playtime ranging from 40 minutes to 2+ hours depending on your skill set)
- Unique custom made soundtrack for every level style and feel.
- Fully Physics simulated flight model.
- An immersive experience thanks to the removal of all HUDs, completely replaced by subtle visual and audio indicators, such as the wind noise and wing particles for speed, the color of the wings for the progression of the level etc...
- A variety of flight maneuvers, from chandelles to split S'es and spirals.
- Intuitive flight controls
- "Very easy" mode with approximated, simplified physics
Quick note:
A Glider's journey was entirely made by a pair of passion driven indie game developers, so please keep that in mind when you think about buying this game. It's a small and simple game with not that many hours of gameplay. What we wanted to create is a simple but challenging game that could give you the feeling of flying in a different reality.

✦ AI summary
Players praise the game's unique blend of relaxing and challenging gameplay with a cozy atmosphere that works well for casual play sessions. However, several reviewers criticize the joystick controls, citing issues with deadzone and sensitivity that detract from the experience, though some suggest workarounds like Steam Input can help mitigate these problems.
I do enjoy this game. It is relaxing on the easier difficulty and it is challenging on the harder difficulty. Definitely get this if you are bored and just want to do something different.
This is a very challenging game. I enjoy it, but only for short sessions. But I have to say that the joystick control is not ideal: there is a built-in deadzone and the sensitivity has a low maximum. I recommend using Steam Input to set up Anti-deadzone for the joystick, but that can only get you so far.
No.
A unique, challenging and cozy flying game that is worth your money.
joyful in its simplicity, yet challenging
After some time wrestling with the controls i don't see a finished game here
