The music for this game is stuck in my head at work!

The music fits very well with the game! maybe you should make better shop menu, but it was very fun playing! You can play my game if you want here: https://itch.io/jam/-pixel-game-jam-2024/rate/2718966

Nice!  I enjoyed the pirate music!

I was able to pump the ship to the max ^^

My difficulty curve was a bit uneven, it seems to be time dependent? Since I was able to pump the ship up pretty quickly while the enemies were still small.

Anyway, the game brought me a lot of fanfare, way to go! :)

cool game!

It was fun but I'm died 😅

Ahoy matey, this game here be a real plunder of riches!

very cool gameplay although I kinda feel this would benefit from a speed up, add some steroids and make the loop faster ... perhaps

This game is truly outstanding! While challenging, the progression and upgrade system are incredibly engaging. I particularly enjoyed the visual representation of the ship's damage . The music is top-notch as well, and the game itself reminded me of Sid Meier's Pirates! Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates captivating and challenging games!

I erally enjoyed that, maxed out all the upgrades, lasted 15 minutes (after the first few attempts where I died quickly) before I'd had enough :D. I got a bit of a headache from all the spinning though! It would have been good if  you could steer when reversing. Music was good, I liked that it was different in the merchant menu. I couldn't really tell what the symbols and pickups other than gold did.

9/10

Great concept and interesting take on the topic! Reminded me of Assasins Creed's Ship battles. One thing I'd add is a reload timer or smt.. Hard to tell when you can shoot again without spaming space a thousand times.

Great concept! I really enjoyed my 5 minutes on this game! And the music *.*

I just didn't really understand all the bonuses you get by destroying other boats or how to earn gold

Well done ! The game is really addictive, I would maybe have loved the upgrades to be more frequent, the game is a bit slow for my tastes. Very cool game :) 

Yeah, I think this is my first completed survivors game. The beginning is a bit crisp, but after a while nobody can stop a full upgraded broadside of 7 cannons. 

Could be a really nice game if adding funny pirate themed skills. I mainly need a net, when driving close to treasure without hitting the hitbox to collect it.

What does the icons on the right bottom mean?

They sunk my booty.  Love the compass visual. Controls are not very reactive, but that's to be expected from a jam game. Would love to play a well polished version of this.
