Laya's Horizon is a 2023 action video game developed by Snowman and published by Netflix through its subscription service. The game features player character Laya gliding repeatedly with a wingsuit from mountain peaks down to the coast on a small island. Players control Laya's flight through the open world, exploring the environment and completing challenges given by other non-playable gliders.

Development began in 2018 as the studio's largest project to date and first open world 3D game, differing from previous linear titles like Alto's Adventure and Skate City. The game was built around touchscreen controls that simulate wingsuit flight within an exploratory, serene setting. Snowman selected Netflix as publisher to avoid monetization through ads or in-app purchases affecting gameplay design. Laya's Horizon launched for Netflix subscribers on iOS and Android in May 2023. Critics praised the game's open, tranquil gameplay, sense of flight, and quality of island environmental design.
