Learn to Fly 3

Menu screen for Learn to Fly 3.

Learn to Fly 3 is the fourth game in the Learn to Fly franchise. It was released on February 19, 2016 on Kongregate.

Plot

We start out at our mascot's house where he is reading his e-mails when he comes upon an e-mail insulting him for being able to fly but not to space. Enraged, he punches his monitor's screen and takes off out of his house.

We next go to the Penguin NASA building where various classes are being taught. After a dummy is launched and falls on a tower of penguins, our mascot is doing a lab experiment when a professor comes up and shows him a plan telling him how to launch to the moon properly. Our mascot quickly exits the building and begins figuring out ways to launch his way to the moon. After a series of equipment upgrades, he eventually manages to do so.

A different cutscene which also takes place in space can be triggered where the penguin is travelling through space at such high speed he breaks the moon into pieces upon impact. The "Moon Breaker" achievement is earned the first time this cutscene is triggered.

Gameplay

In a break from the previous two Learn to Fly games, Learn to Fly 3 has gameplay which focuses on a vertical, launch style game. There are four game modes in which a game can be started:

Story: Reach space (default 200K, 600K, 1M, 4M).

Classic: This mode features the horizontal gameplay from the first two games.

Payload: Reach different altitudes with various weights ranging (1 ,15, 75, 150) attached.

Sandbox: No aims or objectives. The player can modify many factors such as Weight, Payload, Speed, ect. If the player messes with the factors too much the game can lag, or crash.
