Flash games were the precursors to many parts of the gaming industry today. The creativity and willingness to experiment has translated over to the indie games industry, many design elements that are used in AAA games today were first observed in flash games, and the casual nature of many flash games has translated over to the mobile game industry. Learn to Fly is one of those casual games, focusing on an incredibly addicting gameplay loop that can be played in short bursts.

To install Learn to Fly, simply run the file in whatever SWF player you have.

The gameplay and controls are incredibly simple. Your penguin will slide down an ice ramp at the beginning of every day. Once your penguin is in the air, you will use the left and right arrow keys to adjust the angle of your penguin. If you make the penguin face up, you will gain height at the cost of speed. If you make the penguin face down, you will gain speed at the cost of height. Once you hit the water, you can belly bounce maybe two times before you're done.

There is an upgrade system that lets you slide faster, have less air resistance, and have the ramp higher up above the water. There are also gliders and rocket jets that you can attach to your penguin to help it ultimately reach its goal of flying.

All in all, Learn to Fly is a pretty addicting game that's perfect for short bursts.
