Hangsim announced

Hangsim: When you're soaring over a mountain in a hang glider, how do the slope of the mountain and the strength and angle of the wind affect your flight?

Hangsim announced is good news for players who care about keeping games and game tech usable instead of letting it rot on old disks.

When you’re soaring over a mountain in a hang glider, how do the slope of the mountain and the strength and angle of the wind affect your flight? What happens when you hit a patch of turbulence over uneven ground? How does the sound change as the wind shifts beneath your wings?

That stuff matters. Games only survive when somebody keeps doing the unglamorous work.
