All wind, no engines.
Skydrift is a quiet little game of the air. You launch a hot air balloon from where you actually stand, pick a destination anywhere on Earth (a friend's hometown, a peak you've always wanted to see, the other side of the world) and let real world wind carry you there.
There's no throttle. There's no boost button. Just you, your balloon, and the weather that's happening right now.

• Launch from anywhere on Earth to anywhere on Earth
• Build a hangar of balloons, each with their own character
• Earn points for distance, coins for the shop
• Track every flight in your logbook with routes, reroutes, and the long way around

QUIET BY DESIGN
Skydrift is built to live in the background of your day. Set a course on the bus. Check the wind at lunch. Touch down before bed. No grinding, no shouting notifications, no fake urgency. Just the small, satisfying pleasure of watching weather move you somewhere.
WITH FRIENDS, OR ALONE
Compare logbooks, share a destination, or keep your skies entirely your own. There's no PvP, no leaderboards screaming at you. Just shared appreciation for the long way around.
Come drift.
Who knew launching hot air balloons all around the world would be so much fun?I choose a location then watch to see what the balloon drifts over. The post flight report is fun to see some highlights from the journey.The team is already responsive to the community requests on the Discord server.Drift on!
Best virtual balloon app ever
