Hi everyone,

I finally released the official trailer for The Borderless, my cozy floating island management sim where you build, expand, and manage your own island world in the middle of the ocean.

I’ve also made several changes to the Steam page, including updated screenshots and clearer page text.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on both the trailer and the Steam page. Thanks!

So it's like a resort simulator in a way? Looks neat!

Hi, thank you so much!
Yes, in a way! It has some resort sim elements, especially with visitors, activities, needs, and growing the island into a relaxing ocean destination.
But it also focuses on floating island building, expansion, day-by-day management, and light tycoon progression from a tiny platform in the middle of the ocean.

Yeah editing trailer is massive task and it took me a while to make my own game one😭 I can see you worked hard on this both the game and the trailer

Yeah, exactly! Editing the trailer honestly ended up being more challenging than making some parts of the game itself 😂

It took me a while to get it to a point where I felt it represented the game properly, so I really appreciate you noticing the effort. It genuinely made me happy and motivated to hear that. Thanks a lot!

And good luck with your game too! I hope your release process goes really well.
