Neat game. I included your game in my Pirate Jam Pre-Jam Skirmish compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
Oh wow! Thanks will for sure check it out!
I enjoyed the steering and wind mechanics, and also the lighthearted humor. Well done!
Glad you liked it! Thank you!
Pretty clever doing a sailing game for a jam where the grand prize is a trip sailing on a boat to various islands ;-) Overall I enjoyed the sailing mechanic (even though I was pretty bad at the landings). Also loved the humor. Great job!
I personally always wanted to try out making a sailing game, it's just that this Jam gave me to incentive to go ahead and try it! Thank you playing!
The sailing mechanic is actually pretty fun, and seems to jive with my general understanding of how sail boats work. This is a nice little game, though I wish it had a journal to keep track of what I saw and where.
A journal would be a GREAT idea to keep track of everything! The sailing mechanics were very fun to design, although when doing my initial researching I discovered a lot about the physics of modern day sailboats which seems way more cooler/complicated!
The controls are fun. I really liked the little bits of humor with the characters.
I'm glad you enjoyed the little silly jokes I made! Had to make an attempt at entertainment in some way! Thank you for playing my game!
I like the whole 'sail controls the movement' piece its a nice mechanic.
Thank you! It's basically my only mechanic! I'm glad you liked it!
The controls were really cool. Great job on a fun little sailing game!
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
I like the sailing mechanic but I found it very hard to land on a precise location.
I was worried about that when I was testing it out! Although maybe I can just say that is part of the challenge! Thank you for playing!
It's cute, and I like the controls. It took some getting used to. I do wish there was more to do besides just find the islands. Good work nonetheless!
Thank you so much for playing! Yeah! I wish I had time to add more! Those deadlines can really prevent features from getting done in time though!
I like the control scheme!
Thanks for playing! Glad it worked with you!
