Aloft on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1660080/Aloft/

Aloft is a sandbox survival game where you must survive on islands floating around an eternal hurricane at the center of the map.
Build your base and sail the winds to discover new islands and find new resources, technologies, and equipment upgrades, while fighting back fungi corruption.
Learn more about your origins as you uncover secrets from the ruins of a civilization long gone, and find the answers to their demise by reaching the highest altitudes and braving the challenges of the hurricane.
• Creative Sail Crafting
You have ultimate freedom when the time comes to craft and build sails for your island. The height and width of masts can be adjusted, the sails, rotated and expanded, and custom sails allow you to move anchor points around and inflate/deflate the cloth, letting you craft any decoration your mind can imagine.The sails you craft are then used to navigate your island around the map, navigating the wind currents and jet streams to move faster.
• A life in the clouds
Craft buildings to protect you from the harsh wind, or that let the wind pass through, build bridges and zip lines to move quickly across your archipelago of floating islands, farm crops and raise animals by gathering water from passing clouds, erect windmills that will automate your machines, and gaze at the beautiful scenery. Jump off and fly freely using your glider, dancing with birds and clouds alike.
• Cleanse Corruption
Some islands are corrupted by a dangerous force of nature in the form of a fungi infection. Dangerous and colorful mushrooms grow on top of the contaminated flora, and animals are victim to the corruption.Learn how to develop treatments for the various forms of the fungi, and cleanse the corruption from the islands. By healing and freeing the ecosystem, get access to new animal companions, livestock, crops, and resources.
• Brave the Hurricane
The giant hurricane in the middle of the map hides the answers to your past and future in its eye. Rock fragments, lightning strikes, toxic spores and freezing temperatures make the journey through it difficult. If that was not enough, the bellows of ancients leviathans can be heard through the storm.
• Island editor
Create your own island in the Island editor. Save it to appear in your game or export it to share your creation within a friend’s game!
• 8-player co-op
Jump into an adventure with up to 7 other friends, and conquer the skies together. Chain off attacks while fighting as a group, take on a meaningful role in your day-to-day activities, and help your team sail and find new discoveries while exploring.

  1. Hi Paul, I have loved the content for years now. I am probably going to get this demo once I am done typing. I do have one question about it. Is this game designed to have an infinite map or is there a world border? It does appear to be infinite from what I can tell. Either way it seems fun!

  2. this game is very rough but it looks so cool, I really look forward to seeing it be developed more.

    I could definitely see settlements built on the islands, maybe eventually them spanning multiple islands connected with bridges and stuff. It'd be so cool, this is definitely a setting that's not really been explored.

  3. That green and yellow taffy looking plant is the thing you have to destroy. Each island has one or more. As long as they are around they continue to spawn more mushroom head guys to defend it. In another play through, between a sword that you can craft and the stone ax, the ax seemed to be the better weapon against the mushroom heads. The premise is unique. I hope the developer has some idea for an accompanying story. These games usually turn out to be; explore > gather stuff > craft stuff > learn more stuff so you can explore > gather different stuff > craft other stuff to learn more so you can ….rinse and repeat endlessly. To some, building a super fortress is all that's needed to keep them playing the game. I like there to be a reason to build a super fortress, and a hope that I can remedy the reason to have a super fortress. (my 2 cents directed at the developer).

  4. Tried out the demo after watching this, and a thing I learned while playing myself; the small, blue-ish plants on some of the islands are flax plants, which you harvest with a scythe and then you can start working towards crafting sails

  5. I am allowing myself to be a little excited about what Aloft promises…. with the wisdom that it is PRE-alpha, not even alpha, pre-alpha demo. And, well, devs be devs.
    Once I figured out flying, and resting, yea, potentially fun wasted days to come.
    My vote is "I'd love to see more AFTER it is actually a game with some objective and more than a pre-alpha demo."
