Octeto Studios presents Crosswinds, a romantic adventure for PC set in the skies of a fictional 1930s Mediterranean coast. After a failed heist, two lovers must separate to avoid capture. The player pilots a seaplane, searches for clues, and makes decisions that shape a story of love and escape.
Aerial navigation and branching narrative on a proprietary engine ✈️
The title uses a graphics engine developed by the studio that recreates coastal landscapes and sunsets with dynamic lighting. The core mechanics combine aerial navigation with exploration of locations on solid ground. Player decisions affect the plot's development, altering dialogues and the fate of the protagonists. There is no combat; the focus is on flight management, clue gathering, and interaction with secondary characters who offer shelter or information.
Fly to escape your problems (and the law) 💨
Finally, a game that understands that, after a failed heist, the sensible thing is not to argue with your partner about who was to blame, but to get into a seaplane and get out of there as fast as possible. Forget the romance of road trips: here, love is proven by dodging clouds and landing in impossible coves. And if the relationship goes sour, you can always blame the crosswind.
