Purchase Windrose

$29.99

This product is an Early Access version.

A product's description or pricing may change depending on the development updates made by its creator.

Q. Why do Early Access?

A. Windrose is a big, complex game with a lot of potential for additional features and gameplay systems. We believe that the Early Access version is a solid foundation, and the best way to build upon it is to let the players embark on this adventure and see what else they want to experience in the game.


Q. How long is the Early Access period for this game?

A. We believe it will take from 1,5 to 2,5 years to reach the full release version.


Q. How will the official version differ from the Early Access version?

A. We plan that the full version will have around 50% more content: more biomes, bosses, enemies, ships, loot, etc. The story is supposed to continue, unfolding into an epic adventure with a satisfying finale. That said, we also want to explore additional gameplay systems, not just adding the content into the existing ones.

Q. What is the current state of the Early Access version?
A. Windrose is a fully playable survival adventure with optional co-op. Depending on various factors, the main story will take around 50-70 hours to complete, but this may vary depending on the playstyle. In terms of content and features, Early Access version contains 3 biomes (with unique main and side quests, crafting recipes, enemies and bosses) scattered across ~30 procedurally generated islands  with over 90 hand crafted points of interest, 3 playable ships, naval combat with boarding actions, fully functional building system with several distinctive building styles, crafting and upgrading, character progression with stats and talents, armor, weapon and equipment combinations, Tortuga town, factions and their quests, as well as basic reputation systems and NPC workers.


Q. Will the game price be different during and after Early Access?

A. Yes, we plan to increase the price of the game once we release the full version.


Q. How do you plan to involve the community in the development process?

A. We will collect feedback via our official Discord, in-game reporting tool and surveys. While we do have a general plan of the future biomes, bosses and story arcs, player feedback will be crucial to determine what content and aspects of the game we need to focus on. We are determined to listen carefully and work hard to make this journey exciting for everyone.

Product Description

Windrose is a survival adventure set in an alternative Age of Piracy. It features the classic “build, craft, survive” formula along with intense combat and engaging exploration on land and sea.


Progress through vast procedurally generated biomes filled with hidden mysteries, hand-crafted dungeons and quests. Gather your crew and captain your ship through brutal naval combat with boarding actions and seamless transitions between ship and shore.


Defeat challenging bosses on your swashbuckling adventure driven by real-world characters and supernatural forces alike.



Every legend begins with a reckless crossing.


You are a captain who dares to challenge Blackbeard. What begins as a grounded story of survival and revenge draws you into a growing conflict between empires, pirate clans, and mysterious dark powers looming on the horizon. Windrose is steeped in the allure of the Age of Piracy.



Answer the call of the seas and move seamlessly between ship and shore. Naval combat is shaped by your decisions, whether you’re trading cannon fire at range or closing in for fierce boarding actions. Equip and customize your ship to suit your playstyle, from nimble ketch to versatile brig and monstrous frigate. And when the cannons go silent, claim your spoils and share a sea shanty with your crew as you sail onward.



Establish a foothold in vibrant, diverse biomes, gather resources, and build to your own taste, from simple shelters to elaborate mansions and fully developed forts. Recruit NPCs and grow your settlement to speed up harvesting and production.


This world belongs to the brave and the curious, so venture into the uncharted lands. Over 100 hand-crafted dungeons and points of interest contain endless secrets and treasures, though such rewards rarely come without risk. Trade with different factions to gain the edge you’ll need.



Hack, slash, batter, and shoot your way forward! Master a wide arsenal of melee weapons and firearms. Parry and dodge enemy attacks, chain different strikes, and keep an eye out for new gear, including sabers, rapiers, halberds, greatswords, pistols, muskets, and more.


Shape your combat style through talents and flexible loadouts with unique armor sets. Use food and potions to gain powerful buffs. Test your skills against a wide range of enemies and challenging bosses, defeat them, and claim their treasures.



Windrose is fully playable solo offline or in co-op with friends, supporting up to four+ players, with both self-hosted and dedicated servers available. Procedural generation will make each journey stand out, but if you prefer just one character, the progress is carried over between different worlds.

Escape The Overtime VR

"Will I be able to get off work safely today?" <the standard for leaving work on time vr> is a VR office occult mystery game based on "overtime," the most realistic fear for South Korean office workers. You must escape the company before midnight (24:00) while avoiding the watchful eyes of the deranged "Death Boss" in an empty office. It is not simply a matter of pressing a button. You must physically grab and turn doorknobs to open doors, rummage through drawers for clues, and, in critical moments, throw nearby mugs to fend off your pursuers.
