A physics puzzle with exactly one input per level. A puck sits still, you choose an angle and a power, and then you watch — there is no steering, no second shot and no correction, so everything has to be worked out before the release. That single-launch constraint is what makes the levels puzzles rather than skill challenges. Because you cannot adjust, the game is asking you to predict a physical outcome rather than to react to one, and the levels are built so that the prediction is possible: surfaces behave consistently, and the intended route is findable by looking at the geometry. The good levels are the ones where the direct line is clearly wrong and the correct one involves two surfaces you had not considered. It is quiet, precise and satisfying in a way that reaction games are not.

How to play Glide In
- Rotate the camera before launching; the geometry is much clearer from another angle.
- Look for the surface that points where you need to go rather than aiming at the target.
- Use less power than feels right — slow contacts preserve angles better.
- Watch where a failed launch went; that path is the information you needed.
- Restart freely, since working out the route is the game.
Tips
- Two bounces are often more reliable than one, because each surface corrects the line.
- A launch that nearly works is usually wrong in power rather than angle.
- If a level seems impossible, the intended route is probably behind the starting point.
Questions about Glide In
How many launches per level?
One.
Can I steer after release?
No, which is the whole design.
Are the physics consistent?
Yes, which makes the levels solvable by reasoning.
Does it get harder?
Yes, through geometry rather than precision.
Does it work on a phone?
Yes, drag and release.
Does it need installing?
No, it runs in the browser.
Is there a par?
Levels are pass or fail rather than scored on attempts.
