Aloft

This is a mixed review after 30 hours of play. I find that the game itself is and can be very beautiful and peaceful. Building up your island feels very rewarding, however the building itself is one of the worst in any game I've played. Progression as well feels poorly done. The systems make me feel like the devs couldn't decide on which system they liked and ended up mashing them together. Farming and animal husbandry is nice, animals are cute and you can pet them. However animals can disappear and the smaller critters (while adorable) have very limited animations and no movement making them feel largely lifeless. There is very little explanation or guidance to how you do things, what your doing, or why. Also there is very little lore and no real storyline. Exploration is cool and you find some interesting abandoned villages and neat puzzles or obstacle courses, however many islands have little of worth or value and begin to feel repetitive As far as crafting goes there are some cool mini games to crafting but there are also some that where best left on paper like early game cooking water which needs to be done manually via a mini game that gets very repetitive and gives about 5 water per minute. Altogether this is a pretty game that has some nice peaceful moments but ultimately feels disorganized by to many ideas and systems being mashed together. As it's still in early access I hope the devs can streamline the experience into a more pleasurable and reward time.

I do think this a good blend of exploration and base building. It is a pretty relaxing game.

Fix the multiplayer. Right now, it doesn't exist.

Would love to recommend the game but it constantly stutters and barely hits 50 fps even with everything set to low, I understand my pc might be a little dated but it definitely shouldn't struggle as much as it does considering it isn't even utilizing 50 percent of any of my components

This game has all you need to relax and farm, raise animals and also fight to recover islands that have been taken by the corruption. I like the fact that you own a glider and enjoy the freedom of flying, even though there are some limits. Also like that you have your own island that you use to travel places. It's a fun game to play with friends. For being an early access game it's very well done! Good job developers, keep adding more content. Thank you.

Satisfyingly relaxing game. It has just enough "cozy" and "adventure" to give you an unrushed sense of accomplishment. I look forward to seeing where they take this game. I keep coming back with each major update.

Ein wunderschönes Spiel. Macht besonders im Koop Spaß. :)
