Crosswinds is a romantic adventure set in the skies, following two lovers forced apart after a failed casino heist in a fictional 1930s Mediterranean coast. Players take control of Charles, a former WWI pilot searching for Anna, his partner in crime, flying a seaplane across picturesque coastal towns while uncovering hidden letters, intimate clues, and fragments of a relationship shaped by love, ambition, and difficult life choices.

“We wanted Crosswinds to tell a complex and unconventional love story — one that explores the tension between romance, personal ambition, and individual dreams,” said the team at Octeto Studios. “The 1930s Mediterranean setting not only gives the game a warm and inviting atmosphere, but also allows us to explore social and emotional conflicts that still remain relevant today. We’re incredibly happy to finally share the game publicly, and we hope players enjoy this new journey.”
