It's a long game.
I quite enjoyed it for the first hour.
It looks good and has some nice (but easy) puzzles.
Working the inventory is very simple to use.
I was happy to the point of rescuing the princesses.
Then I went East to find the library but got stuck when landing at a trading post.
I could not escape so I saved the game and restarted it.
This just put me back in the same (stuck) position.
I'm not sure if it was the anchor that caused it or that I landed on the edge.
After lots of trying to ascend/descend/pushing every button I did managed to ascend to the platform and could continue.
Having done some trading I tried to start off again but the balloon did not move. It took some time to realise that the anchor was down. It is not obvious which position it is in.
By this point the journal had forgotten what I should be doing and was blank (because of the restart?).
I searched for the library for about half an hour but could not find it.
My companion mentioned a vortex to fly into but I could not see that either.
Changing the wind direction got annoying. Especially as you are about to land.
At one point I was bumping into a mountain constantly as it was in the direction of the last movement on the wheel before the blanks. I could not ascend to the blanks before it hit again and could not descend passed the problem direction before also hitting the mountain. I just had to wait for the winds to change.
At this point I got frustrated I threw the bird over the side ("not cool") but I fell too. This put me into a falling loop. Where I started near the balloon and descended for a second before returning to outside the balloon and falling again.
I think a map or arrow pointing at the next place would be good?
It was fun for a while.
Thanks for making and sharing!
