SIMPLY AwEsOmE!!! I will definitely be playing this long past this jam (if you don't mind) it is tons of fun and a good stress reliever. I love just sending those pirates soaring into the air only to land in my jaws and smash them into a red mist!!! So much fun! The controls are great and the upgrades are superb! It also struck a nostalgic chord with me and reminded me of a game I had long forgotten (Triplane Turmoil). Overall, exceptional job and thanks for this most excellent submission!!

Nice game!  Love the fact you can throw those crunchy pirates in the air, they're gonna need a bigger boat ;)

Couple of suggestions:  allow the shark to kill the pirates on boats or even mid-air to promote aerobatics, and multi-kills for extra points - these would diversify gameplay a bit  and make the game even more fun ;)

This was great fun to play! I love the concept, the crunchy pixel art, the little touches like the pirates hopping when you bump the boat. I encountered a minor bug when playing in fullscreen with two displays: it's possible to move the cursor outside the first display and if you click on the second, it'll minimize the game.

Needs kraken-based sequel.

When I saw that head-laser in the trailer, I knew I had to try it :) Took a while to get used to the controls and I'm still not entirely sure how to give the boats maximum damage when I ram them. But after playing a few times i managed to get the laser, and the fun went up by 10! I love the feeling of blasting the pirates instantly with that thing. Good also to have a limit on the amount of time you can use it. Thanks for a fun game!
