Unity-Free-Flight

A Unity Package to provide bird-like flight to Unity Game Objects.

###Description

Have you ever wanted to fly from a birds perspective? To soar through a canyon, stalking your prey from above, waiting for the right time to fold wings, dive, and strike! Maybe you need a fast travel system for your RPG, and you want to give your players more than just a pre-scripted flight path, to explore your expansive world from above.

You've come to the right place!

Free Flight is designed to add a realistic layer of slow-moving flight to Unity. That means the ability to flap, wing-fold dive, barrel roll, flare -- anything a bird is able to do this package will emulate. Furthermore, each of these actions is continuous: flight maneuvers change based on the speed and rotation they're executed, allowing for advanced players to learn new and complicated strategies.

###You have my attention, how do I get started?

Play the demo! It's the best way to see the mechanics for yourself.

###That was neat, now how do I use it in my game?

You've played the demo? Now you have a grand idea for a cool new game? The Getting Started page here will show you how to use the Free Flight assets in your Unity Game.

###Version Releases

See the CHANGELOG for details about the latest release. It will also tell you where we are in development. Free Flight is still a young project, many core features still haven't been added. Check back from time to time, we may have added something new! Better yet, send us feedback!

###Upcoming Releases
