About Cavern Glide

A thrust-and-glide cave flyer. Pilot Glim, a firefly-piloted glowmoth, ever deeper through an endless crystal cavern: HOLD to fire your thrust and rise against gravity, RELEASE to cut power and glide down. This is momentum flight — Lunar-lander-style acceleration and inertia, not a flap — so you must read the upcoming gap and feather the thrust to thread it. The cave scrolls forever and only tightens, shifting biome from Crystal Hollow to Amber Deeps to Voidglow Reach; there is no win, only how deep you get. Every gap is generated to stay fair. Collect crystal-shards to bank Glow, then spend it in the Glow Forge on permanent upgrades.

How to play

Hold anywhere (mobile: one finger) — or hold Space / ↑ / W / mouse on desktop — to thrust upward; release to glide and fall. Momentum carries you, so anticipate: ease off before you climb too high, tap to catch yourself before you sink. Thread the gap between the crystal ceiling and floor; touching a wall, the top, or the bottom crashes the run. Scoop glowing crystal-shards. The cave never ends — it gets faster and tighter, flashing a new zone banner as you descend. Crash and your shards become Glow: spend it in the Glow Forge on a Crash Shield, gentler handling, a slow warmup, a shard multiplier, or a magnet. Press F for fullscreen.
