Volo Airsport is a rather difficult game about gliding through the air, and we have some keys for you lovely Linux gamers. I've tested it out personally and it's quite difficult, hilariously difficult. It will take a while to get the hang of it, as the control scheme is pretty unique.

It's in Early Access, so we will give it some full thoughts at release, or once there's some more to it if the release is far off.

About the game (Official)
Volo Airsport is for those who fly like birds whenever they close their eyes.

Take to the skies and fly past mountains in a wingsuit. Try to hug the cliffs at over 250 km/h or cruise at high altitudes and admire the scenery.

Your body and gear are fully physically simulated. You fly by controlling your character's muscles directly, which changes your pose, which interacts with the air around you. You can see, hear, and feel every gust of wind as you pass it.

Keys to give away
Just answer me this: Why do you want to fly like a bird?
I will pick winners during next week.

Competition is over!

Check out Volo Airsport on Steam now if you can't wait.

Because I dream a lot of times that I'm flying over the world, but in my real life I have a lot of vertigo and I am a coward

I have a recurring dream that I fly. ( quite bizarre, to gain height I kind of climb in thin air ). Fancy trying this on my favourite OS.

If I could Fly like a bird,
I would take the skies
Gaze into the clear blue sky..

A place of peace and harmony
The safest place to be
Flying around with out a care
Hovering above the world so high
Free of all atrocities and suffering

if only I could fly away
leave the past, be free
no more struggles and pains
fly away , fly higher,
fly until I reach the stars
be free forever !!!

Can an Angel give me wings to fly? :'(

So I can scream at seagulls in their natural habitat and see how they like it. :><:

Because you are the wind beneath my wings.

I want to fly like a bird because it might make it easier to catch the keys you are going to throw at us.

Also my gtx 960 came in this morning (upgrading from a gt 640) and it might make a good game to break it in.

As a loyal penguin I am perfectly content right here on the ground. Flying is so overrated anyway. I mean, what's the big deal? A humble penguin should not engage in such reckless activities anyway. We penguins say: when on ice you feel nice, fly through the sky - sure way to die.

Could still try it in a video game though. Purely for science, of course.

So I can feel like real government official and spy on people! ;)
