quite a nice game

Cool game! I like the gameplay, even if it's quite difficult to master.

Sound and graphic are super.

interesting but hard to manipulate (lot of controls)

Stupidly difficult, but nice overall

So many controls, so hard for me. But I like the game !

It's too easy to run out of cannonballs and it can be hard to collect more because of the (reasonably) loose turning radius. It's a good idea, and I like how it uses the theme (using the map to let you know what's outside your 'one screen').

Good game idea. I found it a bit hard but other than that it was a great game.

Nice game, I didn't get how to reload my cannons at first but once you get the hang of it it's pretty fun.

Nice pirating game. Difficult on the controls, like a real ship would be.

I like it! The idea of a pirate ship simulation is awesome, the way the cannons are set up is awesome (side cannons x 4 each side, the rear cannons being at an angle so you can chase people, good design).

But the game is confusing, all I can do is stay in the box? I can't actually chase anyone outside of it?

The cannonballs floating... That makes no sense :P

Oh the control to cancel shot is super unwieldy.

Would be great if some of those things are resolved :)

I really like this game! The controls are terrible but I really liked it!

aurel300 2014-12-08 19:02

It has potential … Unfortunately, I find it quite hard to control. And at first it was hard to tell what was going on.

...little bit difficult, but good game :)

Great game very challenging controls this could go further with upgrades and health.

Not bad. Slow transitioning, but really okay. Cool music loop and nice graphics. The physics were a bit choppy, but that does not affect your score anyway.

Nice game, but a little difficult to control.

pjimmy 2014-12-10 23:16

very challenging, love the retro style graphics and sound

ynots 2014-12-12 09:11

nice game...
but difficult to stimulate...(controls)

sushin 2014-12-12 10:40

The control is hard but is a nice game.

One of the best uses of the theme I've seen, well done on that! Over all i thought it was a solid concept. The thing I'd recommend you take a look at is the controls. Maybe using the mouse for aiming the canons and clicking to shoot will feel more natural? aah, best thing is to test different things out I guess. If you decide to keep working on this, send me a message or something when you've got a new update, I'd love to follow it.

Interesting idea -- and hard, yes. Good entry!

Hi there. Love the mechanics for sea combat. Something needs tweaking in the balance. Like the sounds and the map zoom. Good job!
