On Flash Games 59 – Learn to Fly 2

Greetings, dear readers. On Flash Games soars to entry number 59, covering Learn To Fly 2. This one’s (and it’s prequel) are in fairly heavy rotation on Kongregate (take it for a spin here, while we mention the site), so I’m surprised it’s taken me this long to review it. Learn to Fly 2 is very much like Hedgehog Launch (one of Learn To Fly 2’s loading screens even gives the Erinaceinae-flinger game a shout out!), where each day, you launch your penguin (in the case of Learn To Fly), and get money to upgrade your flight capabilities based on the result of the flight. You can upgrade many things, like the height and length of the ramp you fling your penguin off of, what kind of sled he uses, glider/plane/’copter he uses, what kind of rocket boosters, and in the case of story mode, what kind of payload he uses to to destroy the targets.
While certainly not completely original, this game has a charm to it that kept me playing for a good deal of time. 4/5.
