Windforge
WindForge is a side-scrolling block-building game where you explore hostile skies in an ever-changing Steampunk world. Everything you see can be created or destroyed, creating an RPG without barriers that rewards creative problem solving and improvisation. Take off in fully customizable airships, and embark on a journey of discovery and survival that will take you to the heart of the world and beyond.
The modern way of life on Cordeus is reliant on refined Sky Whale oil. Everything from the machines used daily, to the food that is eaten, is ultimately dependent on the oil.
At current rate, the noble species will face certain extinction in a few short years. To avoid falling back into the dark ages, civilization must find a new source of energy.

Ship building and the game itself are super fun - i really wish this game got expanded on further, or a sequel was made. :)

I absolutely love this game. I like the completely destructible environments. I like the ability to quicksave in the middle of a fight to force the rng in my favor. I like that if I want, i can hang out near the very first town and max out my ship and a lot of my stats just by scavenging for resources in the islands nearby and/or stealing enemy ships and selling them for parts.
I love games where I can be level 30 levels ahead before I do the first mission and feel like I'm on top of the world.
I like how there are many boards out on the internet with passionate people like me that can tell me where important things are.
The reason why this game has mixed reviews, in my opinion, is not the game or the gameplay, but that it has a few bugs and the developer has decided to stop updating the game.
The biggest problem in my experience is that sometimes the game will crash when going from one zone/square/island to another. It seems to be at random, but when the only autosaves are changing of zones, you just spent half an hour grinding meteors for heartstone or whatever other resource, it is disheartening to see all that go to waste when you try to leave, the game crashes, and your last save is the autosave of you entering the area. It happened to me only every couple of hours and, on my first couple playthroughs, I never encountered the problem.
The second biggest problem is when I try to go to one of the end-game areas before I'm supposed to know about it... but that's more on me, I guess.
Can this problem mostly be solved by doing regular quicksaves? Yes. But it can still be annoying to know that you need to save before leaving somewhere when the game shouldn't force you to mistrust it.
I still do recommend this game because the problems I have found have only caused major problems when I haven't saved recently and I do very much enjoy his game. I don't know if the bugs will ever be fixed, but I do hope so.
If you're willing to save after major works and don't mind rebooting the game every couple of hours (or however long it is), get the game.

yeah, it feels and looks unfinished, it has the ammount of bugs it appears to have at 1st glance and your char moves a bit too fast on buttery platforms designed to hack at your health with fall dmg...
But for some reason I love and do not regret getting it on sale. Not for everyone but if you like terraria, steampunk airships and don't mind the lack of multiplayer, this game might not that bad an experience....

The game is full of bugs, the blocks are too small, and the controls can be a bit clunky. And yet despite this, windforge is one of the best games I have ever played.
