Right now it is mostly changes the atmosphere of the game but we plan on having it affect gameplay directly by influencing the wind and the waves as well as causing damage to ships at sea.

We've also made some improvements to the AI:

That's all for now! Remember to track us here in indieDB to keep up to date with Freebooters progress!

The storm looks pretty good, not much rain though, more like a drizzle. Looking forward to seeing this improved even further!
