Really cool game. From the visuals, I was expecting it to be a lot more jank, but the gameplay was surprisingly solid.
Things I liked:
- Finding hidden treasure, like under the capsized boat and behind some bushes.
- Enemies boarding your boat was awesome.
- Using the boat as a physics object to propel yourself to higher places.
Annoying things:
- Was hard to tell from a glance the state of the boats direction and speed. Maybe a singlular arrow showing what its currently set to would work.
- Gunplay wasn't so fun. Was hard to aim with a big, opaque crosshair. Having to manually reload felt unnecessary when emptying the clip.
I could definitely see this having potential. Mainly if you could overhaul the presentation, making the boat upgradeable (a turret would be cool) and finding new obstacles to get the boat around.
