Hang Gliding - VR Experience

About

Release date

March 20, 2023

Publisher

Myrtus XR

  • Explore a snowy mountain valley on a hang glider.
  • A relaxing flight through this stunning landscape with frozen lakes and forests.
  • Use boost rings and thermals for a longer flight.
  • Try to find a mysterious crash site.

Three control modes:

  • Hanging: Just like in a real hang glider, use your body to control the flight.
  • Lying: Use the movement of your hands to control the flight.
  • Sitting: Use the combined movements of your body and hands to control the flight.

Safety (Hanging control mode):

  • Do not use open hooks, lateral movements can cause the rig to come loose from the hook, use carabiners instead.
  • Do not use chairs with wheels, a wheel could lock sideways and overturn the chair.
  • Do not use improvised or poorly fixed bars.
  • Wrap the bar with foam and use a mattress below your body.
  • Never use handrails in high places as a bar.
  • It is recommended that you always have someone close to help in any situation.

This project was developed from the classic Unreal Landscape Mountains Showcase. All credits to the talented team at Epic Games related to the original project. (The original project is available for free at the Unreal Marketplace.)

Amazing for a standalone headset!

This sim is brilliant! The graphics are crisp, the sim runs smoothly without dropping the frame rate. There is a lot going on in this sim Example: When you fly over the frozen lake, there is an increased air sink effect, and over dry land you will find thermals which you can climb to gain height, beware though, just outside the thermal there is increased air sink, so better fly over that quickly. There is no speedometer so you have to listen to the wind rush, when you're about to stall you'll hear the wings flapping, fly too fast and you'll lose control. Please Note: before launching this sim you need to throw away your controllers and launch the sim using hand tracking otherwise you will not be able to use the sim. If you want to exit out of the sim, just tap twice on your headset! I just wanted to congratulate the developer for making a brilliant sim! I hope the developer can push the graphics even further on the Meta Quest 3 headset and give us more colors like blue skies, greener landscapes and blue water, however the map is really interesting and beautiful as is, with lots of interesting area's to investigate and fly over end bridges to fly under. Brilliant sim, five stars from me! ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Very nice experience

The graphics are nice very and the framerate is smooth. I have no experience of hang gliders in real life but have used them in Microsoft Flight Sim years ago. The controls are intuitive even for a beginner. The correct flight input method must be selected if you are just sitting in a chair like me, it is the option on the right labelled experimental, otherwise you will just crash and think the game is too hard or buggy which it definitely is not. Great price too, well done to the dev!

Hard but rewarding

Didn't expect a lot for the price, and you will crash a LOT, but it's very enjoyable when you do manage to stay aloft. I have already had my moneys worth in a couple of days. I would gladly pay more for additional locations and would love to see this expanded. It is difficult, but I found it worth some time and patience. Also If your having problems with hand tracking as I was, my solution was more or brighter lights.

Amazing, once you get the 'hang' of it

After the first 10 minutes I was ready to give up - if you're used to flight sims, the controls are all reversed, which means you spend most of the time crashing. However, if you persevere this game can offer you an amazing experience. Soaring over mountains, gliding through rings, and catching thermals to gain height all feel amazing in VR. Once you get the 'hang' of it, you might find yourself spending a lot of time in this game.
