Can't make ducks fly up

[Shellbell]

Does anyone know how to make the ducks fly up? When I take off, I can only get the bird to go at the same level as take-off or down. It won't go any higher. Am I missing something?

I've got the same issue.. can't get to higher memories because duck does not fly well. I'm flapping and pointing up, to no avail. I need an eagle or a hawk!

no you need to tap the fly key (or change the bird option in control settings)

or so it seems

[CindyK_JA]

I think this may be my problem... I was using the 'Flap' key and perhaps I should be using the 'Move Up' key... Will give it a whirl and check settings. Thank you for the pointer!

I am not sure what combination of key strokes is required. Nothing I've tried with the Shift (Up), Space (Flap), or W (Move Forward) does anything. The duck soars slowly downward, making it impossible to visit the Chapter 2 memories. There are keys 1, 2, an 3 labeled as 'additional interactions' which do not seem to have an impact when in flight. I did find an option to 'HOLD' in the Accessibility menu. Will try this next.

works for me when tapping space. Although i can only maintain height so i'm not sure if that's correct

[CindyK_JA]

I am able to maintain height. At one point, I was actually able to rise but that soon ended and I was not able to repeat it again. You have to fly to higher spots because you do not necessarily start at the 'top' of each area. I've given up for now...

Hmm I assumed the duck was supposed to be a glider in this game and so couldn't really go 'up' at least no more than a slight bit. Was I wrong?

[CindyK_JA]

Perhaps you are correct and I am just not understanding the layout of the area...

[MB]

I am pretty sure ducks are only supposed to glide, so you can only gain a but of hight during the lift oft and then at maxmum maintain that height by flapping your wings. This makes them different from, lets say, hummingbirds.

that is probably it

same problem, so i search for Kolibri to reach higher places

[CindyK_JA]

I finally circled back to this game and replayed. I just went where the current animal would take me and this seemed to work out. When I needed to be on higher ground, a different animal showed up.
