	It certainly doesn't hurt that Windward provides a beautiful little procedurally generated world to spend time in. The sun shimmers off the waves, wisps of clouds drift by overhead, barely visible shipwrecks lurk beneath the water, seagulls and sharks circle your ship, and friendly AI captains shout greetings or offer tips on where best to buy and sell goods. The physics are fun: while attacking land-based towers it's neat to watch your teeny cannonballs roll and rebound against the rocks, and explosions, while tiny, are still glorious. The music and sound effects are great, and the menus and UI are simple to understand and unobtrusive.

	The development of Windward	https://www.tasharen.com/?p=4745
	"Another reason for Windward being a good project to start with was that the game itself was a pretty solid match for my understanding of the Unity game engine at the time. Everything I needed to do there, I either already knew how to do or could figure out without too much difficulty."

	Ubuntuusers - Windward (in German language)	https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Archiv/Spiele/Windward/
