Lost Skies
It’s a co-op exploration, base-building, and survival game set among floating islands in the clouds. Unlike most base building games, you take your base with you, in the form on your airship, which you have a lot of freedom to design how you like.
The main gameplay loop involves exploring new islands, solving puzzles and fighting enemies to gather loot, and using that loot to upgrade your ship. When you feel strong enough, you challenge the region’s boss, which drops loot that will help you progress to a region of a higher difficulty tier. There are 4 tiers of region difficulty and many regions of each difficulty.
The game has had some drama regarding leaving early access well before it was ready, but the devs are continuing to put significant work into the game, and it’s in a good state now, but with a fairly small community.

Did you forget to unfurl your sails? I did that my first time… It’s definitely slow traveling between islands but “go make a sandwich” slow sounds like something is wrong.
Once you beat the first boss you can start putting engines on your ship, which make it faster and not dependent on wind direction. Also making your ship lighter helps too.
