Well done capturing the feeling of being pulled between multiple objectives between the treasure and rum as well as keeping up with crew payments - I tended to hire way too many crewmates compared to how much income I was generating, which gave the game a bit more of a frantic living-on-the-edge feel scraping together enough treasure to pay the crew. Felt quite polished overall, other than a very small hiccup on my first attempt where the game froze instead of letting me retry when I lost all lives. Nice work!

I had a lot of fun with this game! I felt the notes were very well mapped to the music (nice job on that too, was very pleasant to listen to!). The tempo speedup parts in particular felt very satisfying to correctly hit, especially when there was some innate tension in trying to maintain a high combo count. Played through the song multiple times chasing a higher score and nearly full combo'd it by the end with a score of 40,061. Nice work!
