NOTE: This is a playthrough of the OLD demo, which has just been superseded by a major update! As of June 7, 2025, if you download the demo on Steam, you will get the newer demo.

Windswept is a cute collectathon platformer that is clearly heavily inspired by Donkey Kong Country 2, but also adds some new mechanics to the mix.

I played this on the Friday before Next Fest June 2025, not realizing that the demo had not in fact been updated for the event yet, so I'll be revisiting it next week. This is the risk I run by getting a head start, but perhaps this playthrough may be of interest to anyone curious to see how significantly the demo has evolved.

I will be quite interested to see if I have an easier time with the mechanics and a couple of friction points in this earlier demo.
