I love this game. Soft survival craft with some clear combat areas, you can pet sheep, and you're meant to restore ecosystems instead of strip them for resources. I haven't played any of the similar games people have been mentioning so it's pretty unique to me. The music is beautiful, the visuals are beautiful, the story is subtle but well crafted, the building is fun, the flying is fun, it's just fun. I think it's important to remember that this is an Early Access title that launched 2 days ago. I played the demo and have been in the Discord so I can see the progress the devs have already made, but a lot of the negative reviewers are expecting this to be a pretty finished game already when the EA literally just launched. Yes, there are some bugs. Yes, the multiplayer is not what people were expecting. But it's still fun to play and the devs are extremely responsive and active in the Discord. A lot of the bugs people are mentioning are being actively worked on. I chose to support them by buying the EA because I loved the demo and their vision for the game. If you're expecting a full finished game, you might want to wait, but if you want to be a part of the EA process - try out a new game, give constructive feedback, and help the game develop as a community member - then definitely give it a go.

Aloft is not your typical survival game. It has a cozy feel. Nothing about the game is hard creating a cozy survival experience. I love survival games such as 7 days to die and sons of the forest and enshrouded, but also cozy games like Palia, Animal Crossing, and planet coaster/zoo. This seems to mix and match the best of both while leaning more on the cozy side. glide from giant rock to giant rock. sail your giant island rock across the skies to find new adventures. Create memories with friends in mulitplayer or play solo. fight the fungus creatures on the infected islands to restore them to their natural beauty and unlock the resources. Another amazing bonus is that it works flawlessly on the steam deck right out of the box so you can cozy up on the couch or in bed with a good movie and your pets and just relax.

Having sunk dozens of hours in the demo, I'd like to say a few things of my own. 1. The dev team is extremely responsive and has a wonderful community manager. They've also published a 2025 Roadmap with plenty of content additions and quality-of-life features incoming. 2. The exploration in the game is so peaceful, freeform, and honestly unparalleled in most games. The freedom to ride the sky is phenomenal. 3. There is this... sense of discovery. It's vibrant. Restoring environments and ecosystems, seeing lush green spawn from fungal corruption, all of it comes together. 4. Building is ripe for the taking. Cities are possible as you discover blueprints, full flying titan ships and behemoths. 5. It runs like a dream! Lastly, and most importantly... You can tell the project is passionate. They've listened throughout the demo and will continue to do so. So certainly voice your concerns! The Discord is a great opportunity to engage with them, and for them to take critical feedback, that way we can all work to build a better home in the skies!
