Glider Tool Unlocked and Usable Now!

Inmates,

Thanks to your help, Mister Friend has successfully gathered 500,000 flags for his mysterious tool! Here's his heartfelt response to finally being able to build the Glider:

I am overwhelmed by the outpouring of support, in the forms of flags, that greeted my humble request for hundreds of thousands of flags. Sure, collecting flags wasn’t as glamorous as flying a fighter jet with the window open or eating a Philly cheesesteak, but it got results. Years from now we’ll laugh together, remembering these days, our Flag days, and how we proved everyone wrong, how we stood up for what was right and said Yes! I got all those flags. I worked long nights in the lab (my prison cell) only taking short breaks to use the bathroom (also my cell). Testing the Glider in a small room was extremely painful.
Courage. Vigilance. Flags.
Your Neighbour,
Mister Friend

To use the Glider in-game, go to the Crafting Wheel customization inside a lobby or in the main menu and add the Glider to your Tools. Collect 1 Wood and 1 Leather to craft it in the arena, then use it to make a quick escape or drop in on unsuspecting enemies.

With the Glider, you can cover long distances faster than ever. Deploy it from high ground and fly over a fire or a lava area to maximize flight time!
