A downloadable game for Windows

Set course for a gentle sailboat ride along the craggy coast, learning to sail by picking up life preservers as you avoid the rocks. 

Gentle Wind is an endless scrolling ride along the waves that you can take at your own pace, letting your boat sit in the wind or trying to keep it moving. Get a high score and learn a little about sailing. 

Controls: A and D to turn the rudder, W and S to change the trim (angle) of the sail 

Esc to exit

Helpful tips:
- If you are luffing, your sail is not catching the wind. Try adjusting your trim or turning away from the wind
- What trim to put the sail depends on the angle of the wind. Generally, the closer you are to opposing the wind the closer the sail should be to the center line of the ship
- Sailboats cannot sail directly into the wind

This was a project for a course on Game Development in Unity given by the University of Pittsburgh
