Windward

released on Apr 02, 2015

Designed from the start to be a fully procedural co-op game, Windward can be played by yourself, but it truly comes alive when playing with friends. Start by generating a procedural world that will be unique to you, design your own custom faction then sail forward fighting pirates, trading with towns, doing quests or simply exploring -- it's up to you how you want to play.

Impossible to connect to friends could have been more fun

Could have been fun, but unfortunately abandoned.

Winward is a solid game in terms of combat and trading mechanics, but the mission design is too MMO-ish. I would like it if there was a story to follow or objectives apart from saving money for the next upgrade ad nauseam. As it stands, there's nothing outright wrong with the game, but it's super repetitive.
It also reminded me a bit of a flash game called Franfic Frigates even though that game is an arcade twin stick shooter.
