'Make Sail' Comes to Steam Early Access This Week - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on March 26, 2018 @ 11:41 a.m. PDT

Make Sail is a physics based exploration game where you craft your boat out of materials found on remote islands and test your survival skills as you sail the open sea!

Make boats and sail them. Build, explore, expand, discover. Sail your ships through changing water and wind inside the eye of a storm.

Make Sail mixes realistic physics with a fantastical setting. Build something beautiful or ridiculous and sail on to the next island in search of more items to customize your craft. Make Sail is a love letter to the beauties of the sea and journeys of self-reliance.

Snap together planks, poles, sails, masts, jets, propellers, balloons, propellers, sparklers and more. Take care that it floats....and right side up.

Cross the sea to find pieces to make your ship bigger, faster stronger, prettier, stranger, wilder: more yours.

Every island lets you redesign and rebuild.

The world is a procedural arrangement of crafted islands, pieces and creatures. Each replay will present different challenges and opportunities at different stages of gameplay. As you push the storm back, new islands and new waters become available to explore. Find new pieces for your creations, escape giant creatures, and push onwards to escape.


“Most video game boats are sluggish cars that ignore the wind. Our boats are wild horses of your own design, rooted in real physics, crafted to challenge the elements, chariots fit for the sea gods! They also break up and sink a lot. It's fun.” Ziba Scott, Developer

Popcannibal has announced that Make Sail is launching on Steam Early Access on March 30th, 2018.
