“A Nation of Wind” is a video game featuring elements of gameplay from both “Arena Shooters” (like Geometry Wars, Super Stardust, and Asteroids), and “Real Time Strategy” games, (such as Populous, Starcraft, and Actraiser). Set in a world of floating islands and airships, the player is tasked with commanding a ship and establishing/defending colonies. Players will be forced to deal with the bizarre creatures that come up from the lower atmospheres to wreak havoc on their airship and settlements, while appeasing the god’s of the land and eventually bending them to the player’s will. “A Nation of Wind” is currently developed by one intrepid artist, Jameson Wilkins. He is a freelancer with several years of experience in the browser and mobile gaming markets, and has studied game design and art the entirety of his life.

I've been having trouble playing this game on my desktop. I'm not sure why. It plays really well on my laptop, which is crap compared to my desktop, but the controls lag so bad when playing on my desktop that it is unplayable. Anyone got any ideas? I've tried putting it in windowed mode, that didn't help, and there are no options beyond turning the music off.
i am going to have a try and see what it looks like to play it and tell u about what i think
Thw game is very good retro like RTS that is one of my favorites and everything works but when i enter new game and play i practiicly cant move the airship because every time three times i tryed so far and its like this when you play on a server then everything is fine for a minute two then lag just i play i cant move my mouse normally and wasd works but dont get it....

Looks good! I'll give it a try! :)
All I have to say is wow.... A very great game! Very well done indeed. A great game indeed!
its a great game well done
Other than the boss battles (It would be nice to have some sort of resistances system so combat is more understandable) it is a great game!
agreed, I'd definitely kickstart this (ESPECIALLY if there were a linux port)
i agreae we DO need games like this
