‍“Jesus replied, ‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’” - Matthew 22:37-39 (NLT)

‍

Hey Lightgliders! 

‍

My name is Tova. I was one of the first leaders here at Lightglider Academy. Why? Well, I saw the Gliddles in trouble and I wanted to help. My heart was burdened and I had to come. It really didn’t take a lot of thought or planning. Before I knew it, I was on a mission to the Yonders to rescue and restore.

‍

I was born and raised in the United Kingdom. Growing up, I always enjoyed meeting new people and striking up conversations. I realized that many people are hurting, so I made it my mission to be a source of healing and encouragement. I care deeply for the poor, for orphans, and for those who are lonely. Who do you care deeply for?

‍

I like to think of each day as a new opportunity for a purposeful adventure. You never know what new friend or significant moment awaits you! So be on the lookout, and care for those you encounter. Ask yourself often, “What does love look like here?” 

‍

Glide On!

Tova

‍

Take some time this week to think of ways to Care for the people around you! Here are some reflection questions that will help.

‍

• Read Matthew 22:37-39 in the Bible. According to these verses, how are we to love God? How are we to love others?

• What does it mean to go on a purposeful adventure?

• Have you ever been helped by someone you didn’t know very well?

• Think of three hurting people or situations. How can you bring care to them?

Dream of ways to shine this week. Here are some suggestions!

• Look for someone who needs a friend! At the playground or church, if you see someone sitting or playing alone, go over and say hi or invite them to play! A small act of kindness can make a big difference to someone who feels left out.
  ‍
• Ask yourself, “What does love look like here?” with the next person you see. For example, if a sibling is upset, offer a hug or help them with a chore. Keep your heart open to how you can care for someone in the moment.
  ‍
• Tova loves meeting new people and being a source of encouragement. Say hello to a new friend at church or on the playground, or ask them about their favorite game! A simple conversation can show someone you care!

Dodge ‘Em Up

Hey, it’s Kwan! There’s a new mission into the Yonders, and we need you! We’ve discovered the location of another Machine factory. We need to shut it down and save the Gliddles that are in there!

Remember that different Machines have different weaknesses. The Gliddles you rescue have different powers to lend to you, so experiment with different Gliddles by right-clicking. If you see a [!] sign pop up from a Machine, you’ll know that the Gliddle power you’re using is dealing the Machine you’re fighting extra damage! Make sure to dodge the blue Machines’ attacks. They will stun you!

Also, be sure to check every nook and cranny for secrets! You never know what will be on the other side of a mysterious grate!

Flooded Bunker

Bryce here! Good job in the previous Bunker! You’re becoming a tremendous Lightglider. I have another mission for you. We’ve found another Bunker that creates Machines, this time underneath the big lake in the Yonders. The Machines there will be alerted to your presence, so stay sharp! Remember, different Gliddles are better at battling some Machines than others, so pay attention to the colors of the Machines and your Gliddles! Right-click to swap your active Gliddle!

Orange Gliddles are better in one-on-one battles…

‍

...and Yellow Gliddles are great for taking on a crowd!

‍

We’ve found strange energy signatures from the cell blocks! Could there be something hidden inside? 

You got this, but stay alert! Our sensors show there might be a giant Machine in there…

Glide on!

“Jesus grew in wisdom and in stature and in favor with God and all the people.” - Luke 2:52 (NLT)

Hey Lightgliders! 

‍

My name is Marlon. You’ll usually find me hanging out in the Library at Lightglider Academy. I am from the United States and I love doing two things - reading books and working out. It’s important to exercise the mind and the body. I am often considered the more “brainy” of the Academy leaders. I investigate any new idea before believing or acting upon it. That’s why I was one of the last to join the Academy leaders. I had to make sure that rescuing Gliddles and clearing blight were the right things to do. Usually when we are thinking of others before ourselves, it is the right thing to do. But I had to make sure that the consequences of these actions were good, and not just their intention.  

‍

I am passionate about discovering truth. We are in a world filled with many ideas competing for our attention. Ideas are either helpful or hurtful to others, ourselves, and the world around us. My hope for you and for Lightgliders everywhere is that we learn to tell the difference between a good idea and a bad one. This understanding is what wisdom is all about. 

‍

I encourage you to seek wisdom and truth. Don’t be afraid to ask questions in your search. And focus on the most important questions, the ones that have the greatest impact on your life and the world around you. Two thousand years ago a man named Jesus claimed to be God and said that whoever believes in him would receive eternal life. People believed him at the time and still do to this day. I encourage you to investigate if His claim is true. If it is, it impacts absolutely everything! Jesus once asked his followers “Who do you say that I am?” Take time to answer this question for yourself. 

‍

In my investigation, I found His claim to be true. I also discovered that seeking Him is the key to wisdom.  

‍

Glide On!

Marlon

‍

Take some time this week to focus on Wisdom and what it looks like for you to investigate truth! Here are some reflection questions that will help.

‍

• Read Luke 2:52 in the Bible. What are ways to grow in wisdom and in stature?

• Why can we trust the Bible?

• Who do you go to when you have questions?

• What is your favorite Bible story or verse?

• What decisions in your life require God’s wisdom?

‍

Use your Lightgliders Journal to answer these questions!

‍

Dream of ways to shine this week. Here are some suggestions!

• Marlon shines by seeking truth and making wise choices. If something doesn’t make sense to you, ask respectful questions to understand it better! Try: “Why do you think that’s true?” or “What does that mean?” Asking questions is how we grow in wisdom!

• Before jumping into something just because “everyone is doing it,” pause and ask, “Is this kind? Is it wise? Will it help someone else?” You don’t have to rush - taking time to think shows strength!

• Read a Bible story and ask a parent or trusted grown up questions about Jesus! Pray and ask God to help you understand who He is and why He is so important!

“But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant.” - Mark 10:43 (NLT)

Hey Lightgliders! 

‍

My name is Nisha. I am one of the “quieter” Lightgliders. You may not notice me and I don’t mind that at all. You can make a powerful impact on the world without anyone even knowing your name!

‍

I was born and raised in India. Being the oldest of seven kids, I had a lot of responsibility with my brothers and sisters. They needed me to be consistent and caring. Do you have siblings? Having little brothers and sisters has taught me a lot about what it means to give without expecting much in return. I came to Lightglider Academy a bit nervous. There were so many big personalities and talented people here. Bryce is courageous. Tambika leads the Academy. Marlon is a genius. I didn’t know what I had to offer, so I just looked for ways to serve. I helped Bryce plan out Yonders missions in Mission Control. I assisted Kwan as he created new tech in the Innovation Lab. I worked with Tambika to organize new Treehouses for the Gliddles. One day Tova thanked me for doing the little things that seemed to go unnoticed. She said, “Nisha, you are effective at making others effective! You multiply the impact of those around you. And, for that, I say thank you!” 

‍

I have learned that little things make a big difference. It brings me joy to serve. Putting the needs of others before my own helps me to be humble and encourage others all at the same time!

‍

Glide On!

Nisha

‍

Take some time this week to focus on Service and what it looks like for you to serve those around you in both big and small ways! Here are some reflection questions that will help.

‍

• Read Mark 10:43 in the Bible. According to this verse, what makes the people of God different?

• Who do you know that is quiet and wise?

• What does it mean to show hospitality?

• In what ways might you serve those around you today?

Dream of ways to shine this week. Here are some suggestions!

• Just like Nisha serves behind the scenes, look for a way to serve at home without needing attention or applause! Tidy up a shared space (like your living room) or help pick up things in your yard!

• Cheer on a teammate during practice, or tell a friend, “You’ve got this!” Helping others feel confident makes a big impact!

• Nisha reminds us that even small acts of kindness matter. Serving with a joyful heart shines bright. Hold a door open with a smile, help carry groceries, or write a kind note to someone. These small things reflect God’s love in big ways!

It's time to spotlight some Lightgliders who have been shining brightly in the Academy.  Congratulations to Amber Awesome Artist, Ezra Prudent Lion, and Max Heroic Conqueror! You are in the Spotlight and will receive a Shining Spotlight Glider and RES Head to use this week!

Amber has been nominated for the Spotlight for being such a helpful friend inside the Academy! She is full of great advice and encouragement!

Ezra is an awesome Lightglider! He’s always encouraging others to read the Bible, pray, and obey!

Max recently joined the Gleam Team by achieving a light level of 80!

‍

And you too can be in the Spotlight and receive the Shining Spotlight Glider and RES Head to wear. Keep shining in all you do in Lightglider Academy -- join the community events, show respect to other Lightgliders, create amazing postcards, rescue Gliddles, restore blight, lead other Lightgliders in a game you made up, or just be a positive influence to others. There are lots of ways to shine!

Neglected Institute

Bryce here! I’ve pinpointed the location of an abandoned Institute. It’s full of Machines that we have to battle, as well as Gliddles we need to rescue! 

Be careful roaming those halls--our sensors show that there are giant Machines inside. Team up with Gliddles and battle hard! Remember, if a Gliddle gets tired, the next Gliddle will take its place as your battle partner. Right-click to switch Gliddles on the fly. Maybe you want to conserve a Gliddle’s energy, or maybe you’ll want to use the right Gliddle for the job!

There seems to be an interconnected door system in the Institute. Unlocking one door will unlock many others! Be on the lookout for door switches and out-of-place grates!

‍

Glide on!

“For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love.” - Galatians 5:13 (NLT)

Hey Lightgliders! 

‍

Hi, I’m Kwan. I was born and raised in what is known as South Korea today. I have always been curious and inventive. And I like to work behind the scenes. My biggest passion at Lightglider Academy is to figure out the blight problem. That dark ooze is destroying the land and taking away its beauty and purpose. Have you seen it yet on one of your missions? Thankfully, we can use the RES harvested in the Treehouses to clear the blight. But, I want to find a permanent solution. That is my goal.

‍

I usually hang out in the Innovation Lab. Feel free to come visit me there. I work closely with the Gliddles to invent things that can help -- better gliders, new technologies, stuff like that. To solve problems, we need to be creative and we need to work together!

‍

I don’t like to be the center of attention but that doesn’t mean I can’t make a powerful impact on the world. I work behind the scenes to help Tambika run the Academy, assist Bryce on missions, and support each Lightglider in their mission to Respect, Rescue and Restore. I have discovered ways to use my unique gifts to help others. I’ve learned that a great way to develop friendships is to be a friend to everyone and to look for ways to serve. When we work with our friends, using our unique gifts, we can accomplish great things while building a wonderful community!

‍

So, I encourage you today–be a friend to everybody and watch how God uses you!

‍

Glide On!

Kwan

‍

Take some time this week to focus on Friendship and what it means to serve each other using your unique gifts! Here are some reflection questions that will help.

‍

• Read Galatians 5:13 in the Bible. How should we use the freedom that God has given us?

• Who is a good example of someone who leads with humility?

• Who needs your support and encouragement today?

Dream of ways to shine this week. Here are some suggestions!

• Help a family member with something they’re struggling with! If you see them needing help with a chore or task around the house, quietly offer to help them without needing the credit! Your behind-the-scenes support can help others succeed!

• Notice something that could work better? Maybe your play area at home could be organized, or your family could use a new system for chores. Use your ideas and work with others to come up with a solution. That’s innovation in action - just like Kwan in the Innovation Lab!

• You can shine by doing small acts of service: setting the table without being asked, picking up trash at the park, or writing a note of encouragement to a friend. You don’t need applause - your actions speak for themselves and help build stronger, more loving friendships!

Emerald Fields

Hello, I’m Nisha! I serve in a lot of places at Lightglider Academy, but I mostly try to help the other leaders handle the blight problem in the Yonders. And this mission is all about restoring the land! The Emerald Fields in the Yonders are usually so beautiful, but they’ve been taken over by blight. My tip for you is to open up enough room in the blight so that you can dodge Machine attacks. The Emerald Fields are home to many green Gliddles, and to use their power correctly, you’ll have to get up close to Machines! Patience is the key to defeating Machines and clearing blight. Remember, if you run out of RES, come back to Lightglider Academy and give out Boosts to recharge! 

‍

I’ve heard that there’s a Machine that’s very hard to get to… Maybe the fences in this area don’t extend the whole way around the Fields?

‍

Glide on!

“And then he told them, ‘Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone.” - Mark 16:15 (NLT)

‍

Hey Lightgliders! 

‍

Professor Watts had asked me to tell you a little about myself and to share with you one of my character qualities that stands out. I’m Bryce, one of the leaders at Lightglider Academy. I’m from Australia and I am passionate about doing courageous things, such as going on missions to the Yonders, shining light in the darkness, and sharing the good news with my friends. I’m not afraid to go and try to make an impact. Living for something greater than ourselves is the secret to living a life of purpose. It’s not always easy, but it does make life an adventure!

‍

I suppose one of my most admirable character qualities is bravery. That simply means I live with courage! No matter what I am facing, I know that God loves me and is with me. This motivates me to be brave and to never give up.  

‍

If you seek to learn new things and to make a difference in the lives of others, you will have to be brave. You will have to face new challenges with courage.

‍

What is going on in your life right now that requires bravery? I encourage you to face it and keep going!

‍

Glide On!

Bryce

‍

Take some time this week to focus on Bravery and what it looks like for you to be brave! Here are some reflection questions that will help.  

‍

• Read Mark 16:15 in the Bible. What does it mean to “preach the Good News to everyone”?

• What meaningful moments has God used in your life?

• In what ways could you be more loving?

• What does it mean to live for something greater than yourself?

• What are you doing right now that requires bravery?

• How can you rely on God to help you be brave and courageous?

Dream of ways to shine this week. Here are some suggestions!

• Stand up for someone being left out! If you see a teammate or sibling being teased or ignored, be brave like Bryce and shine light in the darkness by including them or standing up for them kindly. It takes courage to do what’s right, especially when others aren’t!

• You can be brave by telling a friend about your faith, praying for someone, or inviting them to church! You never know how that small act of courage can make a big difference!

• Bravery isn’t just about big things - it’s also about facing small fears. Whether it’s trying out for a team or learning a new skill, being courageous helps you grow and prepares you to shine in even bigger ways.

Machine Bunker

Hey there! My name’s Bryce, and I’m the head of missions here at Lightglider Academy. I love to save Gliddles from the Machines, so my mission for you is to take on the Machines where it’ll hurt them most! We’ve discovered the location of a Machine Bunker, where Machines are made and sent out into the Yonders. We need to shut this factory down! 

There are lots of Machines in there, so stay alert! Remember, your defense systems can fire automatically, so concentrate on dodging enemy attacks while you battle Machines. Some Machines are programmed to guard doors and hallways. They have lots of armor, but they’re very slow. Stop at a safe distance and you’ll whittle them down!

Go get ‘em!  I’ll be rooting for you!

‍

Glide on!

‍

Hey Lightgliders! 

‍

Jabari yako rafiki! That means ‘How are you my friend?’ in Swahili. I’m Tambika. I manage Lightglider Academy while Professor Watts is away. Running this place isn’t easy, but it is rewarding. I try to meet all the new Lightgliders when they arrive in the Courtyard. That is a fun part of my job! 

‍

I was born and raised in what is now Tanzania. Do you know where that is? It is a beautiful country in Africa. Growing up, I always looked for leadership positions in my community. I love to serve others through organization. I love plans. I love calendars. I love details. And all of these things are important at Lightglider Academy. Otherwise, everything would be more chaotic than it already is!

‍

I encourage you to use your gifts to serve others. We need people in this world with all types of gifts and talents. No matter how you are gifted, always remember that being a leader means serving others first. This is called servant leadership.

‍

Glide On!

Tambika

‍

• Read Romans 12:6-8 in the Bible. What gifts do you believe God has given you?

Assign simple tasks to each family member (even yourself!) and help keep track of what gets done. This kind of leadership brings peace to your home and helps everyone feel like part of a team!

• Be the first to say “Hi!” to someone new at school, church, or a sports team. Show them around, introduce them to others, and help them feel like they belong. That’s leadership through kindness!

• Organize a clean-up day at school or church! Create a simple schedule, gather a few friends, and organize a classroom or playground clean-up day. You’ll be leading and serving your community!

Blighted Institute

Hello again! It’s Tambika, and I have a tricky mission for you. We’ve found a major source of blight in the Yonders: some kind of old abandoned Institute. It’s full of empty classrooms, broken tech, and lots and lots of blight! We need you to go in there and clear out all the blight!

Have you been collecting the Lilies that grow in the Yonders? Not only are they pretty, but they somehow grow without being harmed by the blight! Please bring back some of these Lilies for research. Every mission has 10 Lilies growing in them. Can you find them all?

We’ve found some sort of locked door that only opens with coins. I wonder who put this kind of toll entrance there? What treasures are behind that door? Will you spend the coins to open the door? The choice is yours!

Glide on!

“Remember your leaders who taught you the word of God. Think of all the good that has come from their lives, and follow the example of their faith.” - Hebrews 13:7 (NLT)

Hey Lightgliders! 

‍

I have the distinct privilege of introducing our new series called “Ways to Shine.” In this series, we will talk about Role Models and the positive character qualities that they possess. A role model is someone you can look up to! He or she serves as an example for how to live, how to treat people, and how to grow in your faith. I can’t tell you how important it is to have good role models!  One of my first role models ever was Marlon, who hangs out in the Academy Library.  Marlon cares about me and shows me what it looks like to have faith in God. Who are some of your role models? It could be a parent, an older sibling, a teacher, a coach, or perhaps a leader in your church. I encourage you to find someone you look up to, watch how they live their lives, and ask them lots of questions. And remember to listen to their answers!

‍

Glide On!

‍

• Read Hebrews 13:7 in the Bible. Name two people who have taught you about God. What did you learn from them?

• Who do you look up to?

• Who looks up to you?

• Who shows you how to walk with God?

• How can you be a role model for others?

‍

Use your Lightgliders Journal to answer these questions!

‍

Dream of ways to shine this week. Here are some suggestions!

• Be a helper at home! Try clearing the dinner table, helping a sibling with their homework, or feeding the family pet! When you do, you’re showing responsibility and kindness, just like a great role model would!

• Encourage a friend at school! Role models build others up with their words, so encourage someone that you see feeling down or left out!

• Role models are learners too! You can shine by asking thoughtful questions during Bible study at church, or even during class at school. Just like Marlon in the Academy library, great role models are curious and want to grow in their faith. So don’t be afraid to raise your hand and seek wisdom!

Tambika’s Treehouse

Lightglider! It’s Tambika, and I need your help! My Treehouse was just attacked and it’s covered in blight! Can you help me restore it all? 

Luckily, I had stored a ton of RES orbs before the attack. Just open up some of the safe areas to recharge your RES! Help rescue the Gliddles and relocate them to a safer Treehouse while we restore mine!

“Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.” - Colossians 3:12 (NLT)

Hey Lightgliders!

‍

This is the last week of our Unit on the Lightglider Mission–to know, grow in, and show God’s love. As we are on a mission to SHOW God’s love, this week we’re talking about KINDNESS, which is an attribute of God that we can reflect. So, we don’t just want to talk about kindness this week, we want to show it! To be kind means to be friendly, generous, and considerate. Our theme verse this week is Colossians 3:12 (NLT): “Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.” 

‍

This verse tells us to clothe ourselves with lots of different character qualities. Have you ever thought about that? You can choose to put qualities like kindness on like you put on your clothes in the morning. Just like we pick out which shirt or pair of shoes we are going to wear, we can choose to be kind, humble, gentle, and patient throughout our day. Clothing ourselves with kindness is a powerful way to show God’s character to the world around us. The Bible also tells us in Romans 2:4 that God’s kindness is what leads us to turn to Him in the first place. So pick up kindness and put it on like a jacket. Wear it everywhere you go!

‍

Glide On!

Bryce

‍

Take some time this week to pick up kindness and wear it around your family and friends! Here are some reflection questions that will help.

• Read Colossians 3:12-15 in your Bible. What character qualities do you clothe yourself with each day?

• In what ways can you show kindness to others?

• Who shows kindness to you? How do they do it?

• Where could you show more kindness?

• When has someone been kind to you?

‍

Use your Lightgliders Journal to answer these questions!

‍

Dream of ways to shine this week. Here are some suggestions!

• As you’re getting ready each day this week, go to your closet and pretend you’re picking your “kindness clothes.” Say out loud, “Today, I’m putting on kindness, gentleness, and patience!” Then look for a moment to show one of those qualities during your day – maybe it’s letting someone go first in line or helping a classmate!

• Go on a Secret Kindness Mission! Pick one person (a friend, teacher, or family member) and do something kind for them without them knowing it was you! Maybe leave a note, tidy something up, or share a snack!

• The next time you’re in a situation where you have to wait (like in line, during a car ride, or waiting for your turn), take a deep breath and pray, “God, help me be patient with and kind to the next person I see or talk to.”

Sludge Valley

Tambika here! Are you ready for a new mission? We need you to help clean out the swampy area of Sludge Valley. Make no mistake--it can get pretty gross in the swamps! Add on Machines and blight, and you have a recipe for potential disaster! The Gliddles that live here don’t mind the usual swampy muck, but the blight makes the area completely uninhabitable. Rescue them and bring them to Zipways so they can live peacefully in the Treehouses!

Although blight usually spreads along the ground, it can also creep up tree trunks and choke the tree branches. Click on trees multiple times to slowly restore their original beauty with your RES! You can usually find amazing treasures and Materials under the blighted trees once they are fully restored!

‍

“Be still and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.” - Psalm 46:10 (NLT)

Hey Lightgliders!

‍

Our lives operate at a fast pace. We wake up, eat breakfast, go to school, come home, do homework, eat dinner, go to bed, and often repeat it all the next day. If we’re not careful, our schedules and routines will quickly control our entire lives. 

‍

In this week’s theme verse, Psalm 46:10, God is telling us to be still before Him. Why? Because slowing down and being still allows a couple of things to happen. First, we have the opportunity to remember all that God has done for us. Second, we are reminded that He is in charge of our lives and not us! Being still before God and taking time to reflect is good for our soul. When you do this, you will more clearly see God at work in creation, in the people you encounter, and in your own life. Sometimes He will even speak to your heart when you are still before Him. My prayer is that you hear Him whisper how much He loves you because He really does!

‍

Take some time for reflection this week, Lightgliders.

‍

Glide On!

Nisha

‍

Here are some activities for you to do and questions to reflect upon this week in Lightgliders. Do these by yourself or with a family member!

• Read Psalm 46:10 in the Bible. Reflect on your week. At the beginning of your week, the question is, “When will you take time to be still before God this week?” At the end of the week ask, “How did it go? What did you do? What will you do next week?”

• What does it look like for you to rest? 

• What areas of your life need greater peace?

• What are your favorite ways to relax?

• How do you reflect upon God and His goodness in your life?

‍

Use your Lightgliders Journal to answer these questions!

‍

Dream of ways to shine this week. Here are some suggestions!

• Quiet Time Challenge! Set a timer for 3 minutes two different times this week and spend it in quiet reflection. No talking, no screens, just you and God! You can pray, think about what you’re grateful for, or just be still!

• Go on a walk outside with your family and notice God’s creativity in nature! Make it a game to point out as many beautiful things as you can!

• Ask a parent, sibling, or friend, “What’s something good God did today?” Listen as they share, and then share your answer too!

Timberlands Camp

Welcome back, Lightglider! I have another mission for you! You’re heading to a strange camp in the Timberlands. This mysterious place has pools, gardens, trees...it might be beautiful, if it weren’t for all the blight there! Help rescue the Gliddles by restoring the land and the trees in the area. Make sure to be strategic with your RES--only grab RES orbs when you have already used a lot of RES!

‍

Our sensors show that there’s a secret area around the Camp. Maybe you can enter the buildings from somewhere?

“Never stop praying.” - 1 Thessalonians 5:17

Hey Lightgliders!

‍

As we continue to look at ways to KNOW, GROW in, and SHOW God’s love, the theme this week is PRAYER. Prayer simply means talking with God. It enables us to connect with God and GROW in His love. The primary goal of prayer is friendship with the One who made us! God loves when we talk with Him about our lives, thank Him for the good things He has given us, and ask Him for help. Prayer doesn’t have to be long and full of big words for it to matter. Prayer is telling God what is on your heart, and listening for what is on His. Our theme verse this week tells us to always be praying. 

‍

Through prayer, we are connecting with the One who loves us the most!

‍

Glide On!

Timberlands Treetops

Hey, Lightglider! It’s Bryce. Our next mission is to head back to the Timberlands and explore the treetops! There are lots of dangerous Machines up there, but I know you’ll battle them with ease!

A great tactic to deal with faster Machines is to “kite!” When a Machine charges you, start slowly backing away, firing behind you as you go. The Machine will try to chase you, but they won’t be able to catch you. It’s like you’re stringing along a kite behind you!

Use this tactic on many of the smaller Machines. You’ll come out on top! Glide on!

‍

Glide on!
