  • The UK Space Agency makes a surprising return as I over-engineer a paper plane to extreme levels in Flight, the game! It only cost me $100k and several hours but we flew over 5000m in a single flight!

    As someone who played this game like 10 times as a kid, it pains me how inefficient he’s being with his fuel. Medium speed, and save the last bar for pitch control, so you can make the most out of everything

      Not just the last bar, but all the fuel for pitch control. Engine should be used only in emergency situations. A so upgraded plane that he played at the end should go easily 2000m with every single bar of fuel.
