Gustling

A paper kite slipped its string, and the sky is full of trouble.

Hold to climb, let go to sink. That is the whole control scheme, and it is enough: thread the gaps between rock spires and storm columns, dodge drifting storm clouds and crows, and ride the gusts that shove you up or down. The kite never stops and the sky only gets faster. A run lasts a minute or three.
