The authors of Windrose told about the future of the game

The suddenly popular project Windrose about pirate adventures with multiplayer has been released in Steam Early Access for now. This means that it will still be changed for the better — and the staff of the Uzbek studio Kraken Express told what specific changes are planned. They introduced a new feedback tool for collecting reviews and comments, announced a «major overhaul» with a mass of various fixes, as well as a major update with a previously unseen terrain type. Let's tell you everything in order.

Even three weeks after the release, the interest in the game is quite strong — its authors report a record of more than 210,000 simultaneous connections. Of course, gamers notice points that could be improved. Specifically for criticism and any questions, the Kraken Express team opened a feedback page: on it you can report a noticed bug, share an idea, ask for help, or discuss another topic. Everything is designed simply: you select the desired main item (for example, «Share an idea»), and then a list of options opens — and you, let's say, see what proposals have already been submitted and how ordinary players voted for them.

Right now, an update is being tested that will be released in the near future. In it, users will find a network code fix, optimization of loads on processors and SSD drives, the addition of more than 40 blocks to the building arsenal, and another fifty various improvements. And later, at least in six months, a patch containing the «Ashen Lands» biome is promised. There are no details about it yet, but the developers promise to announce all changes within a month or two.
