Beta build 0.25.b1 is now live

A new beta build 0.25.b1 is now live! You can switch to the beta build in the Sailwind settings on Steam (right click Sailwind -> Properties -> Betas). The main new feature is a big change to the player embarking/disembarking and swimming systems, with the aim to fix all the bugs related to falling out of boats randomly, glitching through docks when embarking or disembarking, falling to the bottom of the ocean suddenly, etc. All these issues should now be gone, and entering/exiting boats should now feel much smoother in general. Of course this also means a high possibility of various new bugs, so I would like to test this new system in the beta channel to make sure everything works fine. Please report any cases of glitching through boats/docks/water, and as usual, expect and be ready gamebreaking bugs (back up your saves!). Some other minor changes: - holding the jump key while swimming will now move you up towards the surface, while holding the crouch key will do the opposite - added the run/walk toggle keybinding setting - slightly adjusted the amount of air control - fixed the candle crate collision The best place to share your feedback is on the Sailwind Community Discord in the beta channels, or in the comments section of this post. Thank you!

Set sail towards adventure in the world of Sailwind! This sailing simulator with survival elements features realistic sailing physics and a vast open world to explore. Embark on cargo delivery missions, customize your boat with furniture and decorations, or enjoy some fishing.

Take it easy and go for a calm, relaxing trip around the local islands, or, when you're ready for some adventure, buy a big boat and go on a dangerous voyage across the ocean to distant lands. Use navigation instruments, the sun and the stars to stay on course, battle storms and high winds, and don't forget to stock enough food and water for the long journey!

SAILING

Full realistic sailing physics – in order to sail successfully, you’ll have to tack, reef the sails in heavy weather, keep track of the direction of the wind to find the perfect angle. Watch out for the ever changing weather and waves!

Six boats of different sizes and sail plans to choose from, each with its own unique sailing characteristics and performance.

ADVENTURE & SURVIVAL

There are many reasons to set sail – cargo delivery, fishing, exploration, or simply for pleasure.
Looking for some relaxation? Enjoy the sunny beaches and crystal clear waters around the tropical archipelagos.
Ready for an adventure? Buy a big boat, stock up on supplies, plot your route and set sail for an epic ocean voyage, where you will battle high waves, heavy winds, and where running out of food or water is a real danger.

OPEN WORLD

The world consists of many islands across three distinct regions, each with unique climate, architecture and economy. Drop anchor or dock your boat, step off and explore each island freely. Make sure to stock up on food and water – both in game and in real life, as a journey across the ocean can take many hours of real time with no land in sight!

NAVIGATION

Use navigation instruments such as the compass and quadrant to determine your heading and position. Observe the sun and stars, chart your position on the map, and hope you don’t get too far off course on the long journey across the vast ocean.

BOAT CUSTOMIZATION

Your boat is your home on the sea. Make it feel cozy by customizing with furniture, decorations and paint. Cook your own food, clean and polish the deck, and at the end of the day, sit in a chair and have some rum or smoke a pipe while watching the sunset.
