It's Like Pilotwings, But For The Xbox 360

You know what the Xbox 360 needs? More homages to classic Nintendo titles.

Yeah, there's Perfect Dark, and Banjo Kazooie, but...look, they have a fanbase, but I wouldn't call them classics. Not classic like Pilotwings, which is what Haiku Interactive's AvaGlide basically is, only on the Xbox Live Indie Games channel.

For a game that's only 80 MSP (USD$1), it looks pretty damn good. You control your avatar through four different game modes across four different levels, including free flight, ring rush (flying through rings) and delivery dash, which involves dropping stuff onto targets on the ground.

If that last part is anything like the gliding sections in Super Monkey Ball, that's my $1 right there. It should be out "in the next few weeks", according to 4 Color Rebellion.
