Publisher Top Hat Productions and developer Weatherfell announced a release date for Windswept, their throwback sidescrolling platforming game.

Windswept is set to launch across Windows PC (via Steam), Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, PS4, and PS5 on November 11th.

Here’s a rundown on the previously announced game, plus a new trailer:

Marbles and Checkers need your help finding their way home after being swept away in a storm. In this 90s buddy-platformer there’s a ton of stuff to do and even more to collect!

Celebrate the 1990s One More Time!

Don’t be fooled by its cute charm! The journey home won’t be an easy one! Windswept is a love letter to a period of gaming where collectathon platformers reigned supreme, trying again was the norm, and players only had a game manual to guide them. There are over 40 stages to explore, each with their own set of hidden collectibles, bonus challenges and quirky obstacles to overcome… or fall victim to!

Challenge Yourself to Experiment and Discover!

You’ll learn every ability in the first stage of the game, after that you’re on your own! Changing your leader gives you an entirely new set of actions to use and master – remember to take your time and things will click eventually… Making your way home will be tough, and you’ll need to keep trying until you get the hang of things – but for those who find it a walk in the park, there’s plenty of hidden challenges along the way to test you!

Hone Your Skills!

There’s no wrong way to play Windswept. Marbles and Checkers each have unique abilities, but that won’t always be enough to overcome specialised challenges… Mix ‘n’ match different techniques to play your own way. You may surprise yourself with what you’re capable of!

This is Your Story…

The journey home is a long one – live for the moments as they happen. After that, they’re only a memory!

The End is Only the Beginning!

How far will you go? Where will your journey end? Let’s get swept away – together!
