Oh, I think I remember the inspiration for your game, just don’t remember the name. But you did you a nice job with this. One thing I’ve noticed is that the shadows might be a bit too dark. I don’t use unreal, but can you change the shadow color to something like blue? I bet it would looka a lot nicer. Otherwise, great job! I bet you cold expand this outside of the jam and get something pretty nice.

Thank you so much for playing! It was A Short Hike by Adam Robinson-Yu! I think that was his name, and I loved that little game, it's around 7.99 on here. I agree about the shadows, finding a good mix in post processing and lighting effects is tough.
I do want to expand on this kind of game it was so much fun and felt like less pressure to design. Using the updrafts as a platforming mechanic to explore broken islands and maybe sailing too on wavey seas could work. Lots more testing to do for something like that though.
