Birdly

Birdly uses a special hardware platform designed like a lying device where you, as a player, lie face down. This device mimics the movements of a bird. You stretch your arms out on wing-like "control surfaces" that allow you to move and steer the bird in the game. These wings respond to your arm movements, so you can control the flying direction and speed by flapping or tilting your arms.

When you push your arms down, the bird rises in the virtual world. If you lift your arms, the bird descends. By tilting your arms sideways, you can steer the bird in that direction. This creates an intuitive flying experience where you control speed and maneuvers by moving your body. While lying on the platform and controlling the "wings," you wear a VR headset that shows you the virtual world. The headset completely immerses you in the environment, making you feel like you are actually flying.
