Survival games are great at making small achievements feel like big ones; building your first hunting shelter, surviving the first night, toppling an assailant with your first semi-decent caveman weapon, it’s all very satisfying, but there's rarely that feeling of exhilaration that you get with a good single-player adventure.
Enter Aloft, a breezy co-op survival sandbox game (with a multiplayer demo available right now on Steam) set among blankets of cosy clouds and scenic islands floating in the sky. Any of these islands can become your home-slash-skyship, which you can commandeer to cut through the clouds as you explore aerial realms in search of resources, knowledge, and unravelling the mystery of why the world is floating in the first place, and why it’s beset by a deadly fungus that threatens to destroy it all.
