'The Stillness of the Wind' (ALL) Comes To Switch And PC Next Week - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Jan. 29, 2019 @ 3:38 p.m. PST

The Stillness of the Wind is a a quiet game of life and loss that puts you in the shoes of Talma, an elderly goat farmer on a remote homestead.

One by one, everyone left the once bustling village for the city. Everyone, except Talma. Now approaching the end of her days, she maintains a simple, solitary way of life, surviving, subsisting, tending to her homestead and her goats.

Develop your own personal routine as you care for your farm and your animals. Tend to your goats, make cheese with their milk, collect eggs and cook meals, grow vegetables and barter with the traveling merchant who brings increasingly disturbing letters from your family in the city.


"We're so stoked to finally announce this release date that we'll be hosting a bit of a victory dance on our weekly livestream, right here on Steam on Wednesday January 30 at 3pm Pacific Time."

We'll be joined by Coyan Cardenas, the solo developer behind Memory of God.

Key Features

  • Tend to your homestead: Breed and look after your goats, make cheese from their milk, grow vegetables, water your plants, collect eggs, scare off the birds. It’s a hard but simple life of peaceful subsistence.
  • Choose how you spend your days: It's up to you how you spend Talma’s time each day and what your routine will be. Focus on your chores, wander in the desert, reminisce about the past or draw patterns in the dirt.
  • Barter for supplies with the merchant: Trade cheese and other items in return for hay for your goats, seeds to plant, fables, exotic items and shotgun shells, whilst exchanging conversation with the traveling merchant, your only human interaction.
  • Get news from your family in the city: The traveling merchant brings letters from your family and friends and with them a view into a city that feels both very far away and as if it threatens to wash away the world you know.

The Stillness of the Wind will be available on SteamItch.io, and Nintendo Switch ($12.99), and on iOS via the App Store ($4.99) starting Feb 7, 2019.
