    Hi!

    I know this seems fairly basic, but I'm not sure if it will be in the game. I don't necessarily expect it to blow you around, I just like the idea of having dust flying past me (with a nice windy sound effect, no hilarity intended). It's something simple, but adds a lot of atmosphere. Check out games like Within a deep forrest or Knytt Stories and you'll see what I mean.

    Thanks ;)

    Game is looking great by the way, I'm holding my breath for the next dev update Tiy :mwahaha:

    This would be good for the atmosphere (Punny!) of the game. It would be interesting to have planets where the wind IS enough to blow you around, or being able to harness it for power.
     
    Starless and Bombzero like this.

    Not a bad idea, either of you.

    Though for the hellishly windy planets it would require extra coding to know if an object blocks the wind you know?
