Windy Kingdom Reviews

Honestly, this game is pretty fun. The crafting is pretty interesting, and the graphics look pretty good and it has some good potential. The reason i would not recommend this game currently is because it is almost unplayable. The game takes an absurd amount of time to load (about 10 minutes on my pc), and I have had to Uninstall and reinstall it 4 times already because it keeps freezing when loading. Like I said, it has great potential but right now, no.

So far this is a fun game. A little bit of farming here, some questing there and fighting monsters as well. Trying to be as well rounded as possible. Cooking the crops or found mushrooms to take with you while monster killing is a good idea.

Cute game, but the controls are clunky and the game is super lagged down and has screen tearing even though I turned on V-Sync. Needs optimized and they need to have someone help them with their English translation because there are several grammatical errors. I hope the developers continue making this game and optimizing it. I think it will be a great little game. I am giving it a recommended due to my personal enjoyment from the game. For those that want a game that runs smoothly and is fleshed out wait before buying the game. It still needs work. And for those that'll say it's on my end, my computer plays AAA titles just fine (The Witcher 3, Fallout 4, Skyrim, etc).

I really wanted to leave positive review on this, because game is: + pretty. Love the graphics. + have a nice, relaxing vibe + and also pleasant music and sound design + as well as tons of anime waifus with pretty design and art + and it's basically an isekai. I love my isekais. But there's simply too many cons :( - fighting is awful, slow and weird - controls are off - you will constantly craft items you need to use (like axes and swords), because they break up very fast - there's almost no quality of life elements - there's a lot of bugs - dialogs are super unnatural and because of that story feels rushed - the area between farm and the forest is waaay too big - and I really would want to talk and make relations with the girls. Or just talk. - and there was no update for over a year and a half. I am aware it's the beta version of the game from a small developer. I aprreciate the work he did so far, but still, there's too much weak elements to leave a positive reviev. I hope dev will return to work on this game, because in my opinion, he did amazing job and this could be excellent farming game, if given more time and work. I believe in you, dev. Please come back.

Beautiful game but riddled with a ton of glitches... Has not been updated in many months meaning more or less abandoned. The game is playable but be prepare to deal with problems with everything like the questline, fighting, crafting and gathering materials.

Playable, but its indeed early access - no desire to play at current state. And i suspect its dead, last update was in 2020 -- steam should block early access games without update more than 6 month or at least mark them as outdated :(

2020: This needs a lot more time, before its decently functional while the basics are there the game has issues: The movement and camera controls feel off. The loading is way to long for what its loading. The English is broken and often just plain bad. The time system means the game will carry on to points without the player (inside and outside) and make it feel rushed. The story is used as an excuse and feels super weak. Not being able to do anything in a tutorial, dying or getting bugged means restarting the entire tutorial. 10/2022: As of now it seems the developer isn't even updating or even updated it much - dead EA game basically

Here's another example of game that I wish I could give a neutral recommendation. [b] TLDR at bottom. [/b] I'm going to keep this review as positive for now, but under the assumption that the developers respond to feedback and that the issues don't persist past the early access stage. Also, the recommendation is based on the fact that early access users know what they're getting themselves in for; this is *not* a completely finished game and hasn't been advertised as such. So, what's to like about the game? The graphics style is charming. Character and enemy models look excellent and I really like the animations. Environment looks great. Game is very well optimised, at least on my system I don't get FPS under 97 on max settings. For those interested, I'll put my system specs at the bottom of this post. Things I feel neutral about? Combat feels kinda awkward. I'm not quite sure how to explain it accurately but there's maybe a delay between character actions and enemy reactions, making the experience disconnected. Mouse is used too heavily for almost all interactions. For example, if you want to use an item from the toolbar, you have to right click it rather than pressing the corresponding numeric key to use that item, so mid-combat heals are awkward. Same thing when switching between equipment, you need to drag and drop items with the mouse. Again, same with dialogue, you're force to keep clicking "next" to progress the conversation. It'd be nice to be able to use "space" "enter" or a movement key to be able to progress dialogue. The story isn't really my cup of tea, but maybe others will enjoy this. In particular: [spoiler] The whole "you're the only male in this world" feels kinda like a weak Japanese light novel hook. This plot point might become better explained in the later parts of the story, so this is just my initial reaction. Others might *love* this concept. To each either own.[/spoiler] Sometimes it's difficult to tell what you're able to interact with as objects and the cells they occupy aren't highlighted in any way. So you'll believe you're close enough to chop a tree but you'll just swing at air. Personally I'd like to see some indicator as to what I'm currently directly able to interact with, but I guess it's possible that the developers wanted a more dynamic system for this. Although I don't think it fits the grid based building system. The bad. My game bugged out when I tried to save & exit, getting stuck on black screen for 5 minutes, but oddly it saved some of what I did. For example, all my equipment is the same as when I saved, but my quest progress reverted back a few quests. Weird. TLDR: In summary I think this game has plenty of potential, which is what you want to see from an initially released early access title. Do I recommend it? If you want a completed game, no. If you want to be part of the game as it develops, then yes. The game looks & runs like a dream. Some quality of life improvements are needed, and some bugs are present. I'd love to see combat become more reactive & fluid too. The story line is probably down to personal taste but I doubt it'll ruin your experience even if you feel the same as I do about it. Please keep up the great work, developers! Lookin' forward to seeing this game improve! System specs: Win 10 Intel i7-7700k - 4.2ghz 16gb Nvidia 1080 GTX

Steam should have policy to give us back our money when a developer abandons their game. The developer abandoned this game clearly. Do not spend your money on this. I keep on coming back every once in and while, because I liked the concept. However, if I ever see this developer or publisher produce a game. I will never put my money forward again. There needs to be protections from Steam in these cases.

No Updates for almost 1 year!! The game is dead and the Devs have abandon the game it seems! I would not recommend this game and feel sad I still own it. Could have been great but like all the others ....................!
