First off, Volo is currently on sale at 20% off during the Steam summer sale. This is a great time to get flying if you've had the game on your wishlist for a while, or if you've got a buddy you know would love it. Go get it!
Second, here's your quick reminder to check out the near-final version of v3.5 on the Test branch. We've got a couple of small things left to tidy up, but the windows mac and linux distributions are almost ready for prime time.
New:
- Completely revamped Graphics
- Completely new Sound Design
- Day/Night Cycle
- Dynamic Weather
- Significant performance improvements
- Lots of other things
Blues skies!
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.
The current version already has a lot to play around with:
A single, finely tuned wingsuit to fly with
A huge landscape inspired by the Swiss and French Alps, with lots of lines to try
Dynamic time and weather that is also completely customizable
Multiple camera perspectives (including first-person view)
Highly configurable graphics and input settings
Oculus Rift support
HTC Vive support
Time Trials that push your skills to the limit
Gamepad or Joystick recommended!
