Hard Glide is an experimental fast-paced arcade game with inertial mouse control only (but you can also use a gamepad or mouse+WASD). A small fragile bot has been awakened among the bizarre world of machines, driven by the commands of the mysterious Mainframe, he must overcome increasingly difficult levels filled with a variety of hostile bots and dangerous obstacles, and fulfill his main Goal. This is what his Program says.
The controls in the game are a little unusual, but quite simple:
move the mouse to control the movement of your character
press and hold down the left mouse button to shoot and lock the sight in one direction, regardless of the movement direction
while shooting, you can rotate the sight on 180 degrees by pressing the right mouse button
transferring objects (keys) and moving platforms at transit stations also occurs by holding down the left mouse button
if you need a hint where the level goals are, just click on the middle mouse button (wheel)
When creating this game, I was inspired by arcade games of the past, I tried to get closer to the same adrenaline-pumping gameplay experience, but with the addition of modern graphics and effects. The game is aimed at those players who love action games of dexterity and skill.
