New Settings and Discount Awaits in The Wind’s Path
Endless Project Games has released a new update for The Wind’s Path on Steam and itch.io, giving players greater control over how they experience the game. The update introduces expanded difficulty and assist settings that enable players to choose the challenge that suits their play style.
With this update, players can push the game to extreme levels by enabling punishing options, including settings where a single hit causes instant defeat. Those who prefer a smoother experience can activate assist options that increase jump height for more airtime, speed up attacks, or reduce overall difficulty. The update also introduces a One Punch mode, which allows players to defeat any enemy in a single hit. They can freely combine these settings to create a customized balance between challenge and accessibility.
The Wind’s Path is also part of the Winter Holiday sale, offering an 82% discount on both Steam and itch.io. The sale makes the updated version especially appealing for newcomers and returning players alike.
The game presents a distinctive take on platforming by using a top-down perspective. Instead of directly controlling a character, players command the wind itself. They dash, blast, and glide through carefully designed worlds that range from floating ruins high in the sky to a dense sci-fi metropolis.
The story centers on a young boy named Olis, who gains the ability to control the wind and travel between worlds. During his journey, he meets an alchemist who has lost a collection of dangerous reality-shifting shards. Together, they race to recover the shards before they trigger a catastrophic event. Throughout the adventure, players unlock new pathways and abilities that enhance combat while also opening up new traversal options.
