Release Date: March 11, 2014
Two-dimensional platformer with open gameplay and a motif of extracting raw materials and constructing your own vehicles or buildings. In the game we explore the air world of islands in search of minerals. The whole thing resembles the popular Terraria, but it operates with much nicer graphics and a few original ideas.
Windforge is a 2D building-block Role-Playing Game (RPG) where players are immersed in a world called Cordeus; an exotic sky planet teeming with life and mystery. People don’t seem to belong on this world and yet they are thriving by harvesting the planet’s resources and forming it to their needs.
The game empowers players with the freedom to create elaborate structures and airships used for exploration and combat in the skies. Players use their skills and creativity to overcome the challenges of Cordeus and embark on a journey of discovery & survival that will carry them to the depths of the planet and beyond.
Explore rich environments, build using materials you find in the world and fight unique enemies! Among other highlights, the game will feature random, procedurally-generated environments, high-resolution modular 2D graphics and the ability to customize many visual aspects of your character and objects.

Game Ratings for Windforge Video Game.
New Game Network: 40 / 100 by David Will
The inevitable result of a collision between ambition and inexperience. Not recommended unless you feel that Terraria would have been improved by the addition of a cling-film-thick story, airship combat, and a heavy sprinkling of bugs.
GameGrin: 5 / 10 by Matt Girdler
Windforge is the shadow of the game that it should have been. There's plenty of systems here that should be great, but the package doesn't quite come together - primarily due to a lack of multiplayer, but also due to a number of design issues. Those who prefer their sandbox games as a solo experience will likely be thrilled with the RPG elements, while others should probably steer their airship clear of Windforge.

It's such a shame. I was hugely excited about Windforge, but it feels like a game that's not had enough critical eyes on it during development. It's awkward, it's unbalanced, and there's a sense of resignation in the exploration that saps the joy out of it.
