Windlands Update Released! Version 1.0.5

17-Jun-2016 An update to Windlands has been released to Steam and will be automatically downloaded.

New Free Content!

If you have enough Crystals you can open up the new Jungle Playground (see details below) and the Sky Challenge. We look forward to seeing your speedruns, enjoy!

Big Changes

We have added a new Challenge map to Sky, the Sky Swing Challenge.
We have moved the Parkour Challenge map from Jungle to City, where it is more at home.
We now have 3 Challenge maps in total, 1 per island in the hub. They can be opened by returning Crystals to the center of the hub.
We have added a new Jungle Playground Map, accessible in the Hub where the Parkour Challenge used to be. This map is designed for swinging and most of all, fun!
The Playground is a new type of Challenge. 10 orbs are scattered in the map. Leaving the start area will start the timer, you can collect the 10 orbs in any order and make your way to the exit to stop the timer. We plan to add a City and Sky Playground in future updates. Windlands Original Soundtrack is now available as a DLC! Grab it here!

Changes

We have introduced LOD’s on Tablets to reduce CPU overhead.
We have added Controller layout diagrams to make the layout pages clearer.

VR

We now display an intensity warning in VR when the game starts. Too many people leave negative reviews due to feeling nausea (if you haven't yet reviewed Windlands on Steam, please do, it really helps others out).
We have introduced controller diagrams into the menus.
We have some awesome official limited edition Windlands T-Shirts in our Shop. Enter the coupon code “steamapr” for 20% off!, because we love our Steam Community!

Many thanks for your continued support on our journey! Enjoy! - Psytec Games Team

A first person grappling hook exploration game.

Soar through the ruins of a fallen world and discover the secrets of the ancients. Windlands has been developed primarily for Virtual Reality headsets, but is also a great experience for those without headsets.

It appeals to those who want to explore the breathtaking vistas at a relaxing pace, while the challenging routes attract gamers who like to master the skill of soaring through the towering environments at top speed.

Gameplay Features

Designed and built for Virtual Reality First.
Grappling Hooks Focused Movement.
Variety of expansive levels that reward exploration.
Multiple routes provide a range of optional challenges.
Optional Skill based, Speed Runs and Time Trials with Leaderboards.
Goal Driven Gameplay with Easy (Hook Anything), Normal and Hard Modes.
Collectibles that reward exploration and completionism.
Calm, Positive, Pressure-Free, Non-Violent, Zen like relaxing play.

WARNING: Windlands is an intense (but awesome) experience in VR, it takes time to get your VR Legs, please take baby steps if you are sensitive to locomotion in VR play in very short sessions and perhaps try cages, sitting down and a controller if you are still effected, the second you feel a bit of nausea please stop and take a break
