What is Learn to Fly 3?

In this single-player arcade flight game, you build a penguin's spacecraft from parts, launch it, earn money, and upgrade it to reach space. Story mode focuses on altitude, Payload mode adds heavy cargo, Classic mode shifts the goal to horizontal distance, and Sandbox mode lets you change physics settings.

  • +you like earning upgrades through repeated launch attempts
  • +you want different flight goals and adjustable sandbox physics

Not for you if...

  • −you want to fly without building and upgrading a ship
