I've been listening and reading (replying and helping where neccesary) since november now. So I've learned to just wade in and listen, listen some more. And at its heart it is a WWI style air combat game, and you'll actually need to get comfortable with that kind of gameplay, to enjoy it.

It's a genre bender with some artistic ambition, and sometimes that's a lot more complex than just a cool 3rd person action game. Wed 19th May I do a lot of community outreach myself, as people mentioned it's a game that draws a lot praise and a lot of critique.Story briefings are voiced with some entertaining acting, and we've been enjoying the slow-drip of details so far. In some cases you're in dogfights, delivering goods or simply going on patrols. Story missions, at least early on, are snappy and introduce different mechanics. One seller says you need to complete a race to unlock his wares, but doesn't tell you anything else exploring the home base and looking for environmental storytelling reveals the path. In terms of mission structure, there's an element of figuring things out yourself. The sprawling sea is a marvel too, with impressive wave effects that, delightfully, have transitioned well to Nintendo's console. You can swoop to catch and eat fish, or simply glide through the clouds. Different groups and cultures have unique architecture, there's the 'Maw' in the middle of the map, a strange trench into which the sea collapses, and all sorts of rocky outcrops to find. Each landmark triggers a lovely swoosh of the camera as it's marked, and you can take in the surrounds before jumping into missions. After the prologue you pick which chapter to undertake but there's a logical order to follow, and you can simply opt to explore and fly around should the mood take you. For one thing there's very little tutorial-led guidance, to the point that after some early struggles we dropped the difficulty, started again and began to find our feet. We've stuck to early game in our captured footage above, but we're already very much enjoying the world this game creates. It's rather enthralling.Įach landmark triggers a lovely swoosh of the camera as it's marked, and you can take in the surrounds before jumping into missions Your crosshair is small and it feels more like chaotic dogfighting of early 20th Century than modern combat of computer-driven lock-ons and missiles. Though you have a map and radar of sorts, combat also feels quite naturalistic, as natural as giant birds firing cannons at each other can feel.

It holds up very well docked, and though the resolution drops as expected in portable play it's still an absolute pleasure on the eyes. Of course, it's an Indie project so that should be remembered in-game looks fantastic, but some brief cutscenes in which a mystical woman appears are a little rougher the stuff that matters, though - soaring around the game's world - looks and feels excellent in motion. From a purely technical perspective if this was a small download-only title from Nintendo we'd say 'of course', as it's smooth and beautiful on the system. Rather than the usual fuzz-o-vision at 30fps that blights a number of ports that downscale from the newest hardware to Switch, this scalable game comes out looking rather lovely on Switch, and at a steady 60fps. As a result it's been able to make a wonderful transition to Switch.

It was a showcase on the new hardware, supporting native 4K and 120fps it's a title that looks impressive but is clearly led by strong visual design and smart systems.

It also launched alongside the Xbox Series X/S before coming to Game Pass, making it one of the few new games to arrive on that system day one as a result it got plenty of focus. It is mostly the creation of one man, Tomas Sala, along with a small number of valuable contributors.
