Fun game, although I rly would want to not start from the start whenever all my ships die. The art was rly nice. The sound is very good. GG!

Really loved this!! Style was super charming and great feel to firing. Would be nice to have a little feedback when ships get hit, but felt so goooood. I need to work on my aim though XD

Thank you! I was going for a retro Gameboy aesthetic so I'm glad you liked the art style!

LOVED IT

1- Double Marauders CLEARS, whiped dem' pirates booties with this mighty combo!

2- Single Queen Anne's Revenge FEELS MAJESTIC but the 3* rating on both speed and reload are false advertisement!

I played without understanding what to do at first; it took me some time to get used to it. Loved the concept!

Fun concept - plays out a bit like an RTS. I'd recommend adding a reloading indicator to each ship, so you can plan your shots accordingly.

Also, it would make sense for islands to block cannonballs.

As an additional incentive to keep your fleet small, your ships could be susceptible to their own side's cannonballs as well.

Loved the monochrome art style and music!

Developer

Thanks for all the suggestions!

Loved the concept! One thing I would suggest is to add a visual cue on which button maps to which boat
