Front page same title . <| sep |> Hey there , Thank you very much for the kind words ! In How We Soar , you take to the skies on the back of a giant phoenix , flying through numerous papercraft worlds to uncovered the story of The Author and his struggles in life . The levels alternate between The Author ' s real world life and the books he is writing inspired by what happening at that time and the primary objective in each to reveal the story beats contained within . Each level is torn , pulled apart and basically very chaotic looking when you first enter them . But as you fly around , through various sets of coloured rings , you pull the environment together , revealing various story details and giving shape to the world . One of the coolest features of the game is that you can paint the world . Skim close to the environment and you paint in colour and also spawn other features of the world that you wouldn ' t normally see . Hidden through out each world are various coloured orbs , collect enough of them and a Key Bird emerges , which you have to give chase and try to catch . This is a change in pace compared to the world exploration and the dynamic nature of the Key Birds can give some exciting chases . If you manage catch a Key Bird , it will reveal one story beat . You can do these in any order , at any speed . There no time pressure , you can event just go around enjoying the previously mentioned painting if thats what you want to do . It ' s up to you !
