Neat game. I included your game in my Pirate Jam Pre-Jam Skirmish compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

You really put a lot of thought into the combat system! It works really well, and I think it could become a cool puzzle game. Congratulations!
This is a cool little game! The cannon sound effect is very satisfying. There's a lot of really good logic here to make a really cool pirate puzzle game in the future.
Great work, fun game!
Thank you for playing :)
It was one of the humble bundle sound FX packages that included Pirate pack, unfortunately there are no info file in ZIP, so I can't even tell where the original package was from :/
The game started out as straight puzzle game, but I realised I won't have time to put in different stages, so made it a bit more action oriented, but keeping some of the puzzle elements :P
Interesting, I dig it! Sometimes inputs felt like they weren't getting read and the sound effect from repeated moves got repetitive after a bit but the base here is solid
Thanks for the feedback. There was some logic in there originally for more puzzle game play approach so that ships were always moving. So for example you can not turn towards land. I did consider taking it out, but then again sometimes it offers that nice "how do I get out of this situation" effect, so was really in two minds about it.
This is a really cool idea! I think this would make a fantastic puzzle game.
Cheers! :) I considered more puzzle like gameplay at first, but it become obvious I wouldn't be able to add many actual puzzles within time limit. In the end it became a bit more action oriented, but keeping the original idea of having to maneuver ships in position to attack or having to make sure you don't end up under fire yourself.
