Pocket Flight News

[p]Today we want to take you behind the scenes and show you one of our favorite aircraft in Pocket Flight - Driftwing. This one was designed with a very specific feeling in mind.[/p][p]Not speed. Not power. But flow.[/p][p][/p][h2]🧵 From Wireframe to Sky[/h2][p]Every plane in Pocket Flight starts as a simple shape.[/p][p]When we look at Driftwing in wireframe mode, we’re not thinking about colors yet. We’re looking at balance. Proportions. How clean the silhouette feels from a distance. How the wings stretch out just enough to communicate stability.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]When we crossfade from the mesh to the finished aircraft, you can really see what we care about:
a strong canopy shape, bold contrast, and a design that stays readable against bright skies and snowy biomes alike.[/p][p][/p][h2]🎮 How Driftwing Feels[/h2][p]Driftwing was built for smooth, confident turns. It’s the plane you pick when you want to:[/p]

• [p]glide wide through mountain valleys[/p]
• [p]make gentle corrections without oversteering[/p]
• [p]keep momentum without fighting the controls[/p]

[p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]We spent a lot of time tweaking its flight profile to find that sweet spot between responsiveness and calm stability.[/p][p][/p][h2]⚙️ Tuning the Personality[/h2][p]This is where the real magic happens. Behind the scenes, Driftwing’s identity lives in its stats:[/p]

• [p]acceleration and deceleration[/p]
• [p]roll speed[/p]
• [p]turn authority[/p]
• [p]max speed balance[/p]
• [p]low-speed behavior[/p][p][/p]

[p][/p][p][/p][p]Small number changes can completely transform how a plane feels in the air. A tiny bump in roll speed makes turns sharper. A softer deceleration makes gliding feel smoother.[/p][p][/p][h3]We test. We tweak. We fly again. Until it feels right ✅[/h3][p][/p][h2]🌤️ What’s Next?[/h2][p]We’re continuing to refine how each aircraft communicates its personality - not just through stats, but also through sound design and subtle feedback in the air.[/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p][/p][p]💬 If you’d like to hang out with us, join our Discord – it’s the best place to chat with the devs, share ideas, and see what’s coming next![/p][p]Pocket Flight Discord[/p][p][/p][p]Clear skies,[/p][p]Marcin & Kacper
