Is this made by bossa studios???

[crjase]

I looked it up and apparently this is the same people that made worlds adrift? Why'd you discontinue worlds adrift and make this instead? Wouldn't it be better to remake worlds adrift without 3rd party plugins, or to just maintain it?... or maybe this is a remake without 3rd party plugins, and nobody knows about it?

hi this game looks promising! i like the idea with turning the islands in to ships! are you planing on possibly adding multiplayer and pvp at any point? i think this could scratch an itch for players that enjoy games like worlds adrift, Atlas, Sea of thieves and last oasis. your aesthetic design theme is great aswell because it kind of gives off studio ghibli/ zelda vibes which is familiar for audiences. well done on your demo and i wish you well with development. i hope this game makes you rich

Thanks for the kind words! Studio Ghibli and Zelda are definitely big inspirations for the game's aesthetic.

We recently hosted a very successful multiplayer playtest, the devs are polishing up the experience and it will be added to the game at some point.

Interesting. Personally, I felt strong Myst vibes. In the demo, I even build houses that resemble the ones in the series. In fact, even flying around an island reminds me of Myst books' bird eye view. It's really enjoyable to be able to build those islands like that. The first game that allows to do it properly. It would be interesting to play with some more advanced mechanisms and even build puzzles.

You are thinking of Lost Skies, which is basically World's Adrift but not an mmo. As for the why, well plain and simple the tech they were using for World's Adrift networking and servers (SpatialOS) was to expensive to license and run servers for. They simply couldn't afford to keep WA running and it wasn't very popular. That said the game had a lot of potential and was well loved by many so they decided to make a singleplayer/co-op experience along those lines.

Bossa are currently developing Lost Skies, a coop game that is very similar to Worlds Adrift.

this game is almost a copy of Worlds Adrift. I though Funcom had bought the rights and remade it 😂

No "hook", no PVP... but there are conceptual similarities. It doesnt take much playing to see Aloft went in a different direction; their inspirations/goals are just not the same. I hate to bundle them all into one "islands in the sky" stereotype but its inevitable I suppose.

Not that interested in Worlds Adrift myself since its dead, but Lost Skies is something I would consider reviewing to play if it ever makes EA; also not the same type of game either, but the setting could be interesting.

Ooof. Another great Steam User Moment...

the way you could act with your character in worlds adrift was amazing it was basically you the sky and the physics, its missing in aloft which is sad everything feels lifeless and empty, and theres still no way to create steampunk ships.
