About the Game

What is Talewind?


Talewind is a VERY HARD 2D platformer with the wind as a core mechanic, mostly suited for hardcore platforming fans and completionists.
You can jump, glide and move trough wind tunnels in order to travel across the levels.
Play through FIVE different worlds filled with beautiful hand-painted environments.

Don't let its looks fool you, you are going to need some serious mechanical skills to reach the end.


The Story


You live in a small village at the bottom of a mountain. This mountain is not like the others though. Surrounding it,
strong winds never cease to blow. To this village the wind is a blessing, a never ending source of energy essential to everyday life.

But one day, the wind gets weaker and starts to fade.
You set off on a journey to climb the mountain and find out what is happening.
