Simple to understand, a bit of a challenge to get through. Wasn't bad for a free game.1 found this helpful
"Winging It" is a rather mediocre ripoff of Flappy Bird (yeah, the absolute state of "indie" amateur developers right here). What do you do in the game? It's Flappy Bird, with a lame little glide mechanism, but ultimately the gameplay is pretty much the same. Don't be decieved by the poor quality low poly assets. All you do is Flappy Bird stuff. In terms of visuals, this features fairly low quality low poly 3D visuals which will deter a lot of gamers, understandably. Gaming is a visual medium, and while some developers struggle with creating high quality visuals, failing to do so is a disservice to gamers. It's very difficult to recommend bad looking games. It's free... now, but it wasn't before. The developer was charging $5 USD for this. Imagine charging $5 for a Flappy Bird ripoff. Price barriers, especially on low quality products, can be a direct cause of failure. It's a nice gesture for the game to be given away for free, but it also tells us that the game wasn't good enough to succeed as a paid product. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at just a dozen or so concurrent players …1 found this helpful
It is not easy. I like it. There were no bugs or errors found while I was playing the game.1 found this helpful
remember those jump/launch/glide games on flash webgame sites that were insanely popular back in the day? yeah, this is like that. if you are looking for a flappy bird rip-off, like some other players compare it to, this isn't your thing. trust me. flappy bird is "thread the needle". this is "go with the flow" gliding game with occasional booster flap in a chill environment. oh, and soundtrack is pure chiptune retrobliss. developers were very decent to release it for free after dissolving the company. it makes it unambiguously abandonware and is completely safe from any legal standpoint for future usage. other companies should learn from this. this is what we as gamers want. now i wish i paid for it to support them. only downside i can find to this relaxing game is resolution issues. but those will not plague vast majority of gamers and this works perfectly on fullscreen devices and similar setups. it can also work on multimonitor but don't expect any dynamic changes. short, sweet, relaxing afternoon experience done by a developer that obviously respects the industry. go for it, you literally got nothing to lose except half an hour. that's all you need to see if this is for you o…
[h1]Before I played Winging It, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]
