Guide to Inviting Friends in Windblown

Windblown has officially launched in early access, presenting itself as the newest action roguelite from Motion Twin. Unlike Dead Cells, Windblown introduces cooperative gameplay, enabling players to partner with friends or other participants for enjoyable collaboration within its demanding biomes. Here’s a guide on how to activate co-op in Windblown and send invitations to your friends.

Understanding Windblown Co-op

As you explore the initial biome at the beginning of your adventure in Windblown, you will encounter Pietro, a helpful NPC.

There’s no need to attack him; simply progressing through the conversation will advance the co-op setup.

Joining Groups in Windblown

When you interact with Pietro, a server menu will appear, allowing you to navigate between different servers to check for optimal ping and available groups.

Creating a Team and Inviting Friends in Windblown

You can form a team through the same server interface, adjusting its settings to suit your needs. Once satisfied with your choices, click the “Create” button.

After entering online mode, you can invite friends either by sending them a unique invite code or via your Steam friends list.

Additionally, friends can be invited from the pause menu. When everyone is prepared, just commence an expedition as a team.

Exiting a Team

To leave your current team, pause the game and choose the “Quit Team” option.

Co-op gameplay is highly enjoyable, although you might experience occasional lag. If your initial character choice isn’t to your liking, you can change your species in Windblown rather early in the game. Additionally, you can disable the vomit animation that triggers every time your character perishes.
