About WaggaSim
https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3058640/extras/UltimateFlyingExp.png
WaggaSim is a realistic paragliding simulator with advanced soft-body physics. The wings and wind-socks behave like real fabric, bending and flexing naturally. Design or modify your own gear, fly and perfect your style: soaring, thermaling, acro, freestyle... This is free flying, the opportunities are endless !

Realistic Wing Dynamics
Experience true-to-life aerodynamics ! The forces are dynamically adjusted based on airspeed, angle of attack, deformation and braking inputs, allowing for highly detailed collapses, stalls, and wind interactions. The wings in WaggaSim also adjust their internal pressure affecting how they bend and flex.

Procedural Wings & Customization
Create and modify your own paragliders, speed wings or even kite ! The intuitive wing editor allows you to design custom wings, which will behave realistically based on their shape and structure. Learn the intricacies of paragliding by experimenting with different designs and seeing how they perform in various conditions.
Ground Interaction
Perform stunning foot drags and perfect your precision with ease ! The pilot model features semi-ragdoll physics, allowing for realistic interactions with the terrain.

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.7 found this helpful
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)2 found this helpful
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.1 found this helpful
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)1 found this helpful
