WOW COOL GAME
that pirate game that we deserve :smile_cat: hello to gunter from adventure time funny game
Soundtrack of the year! 😂 0.5Gb for voxel art game - typical Unreal Engine 😆 I had fun playing your game. Much better than looting ships in Assassin's Creed Odyssey.
@yaroslav-kravtsov and we foolishly opted-out from Audio category because we had one CreativeCommon song and I felt like that should exclude us (according to guidelines) ;(
sweet game, I got thrown up in the air a few times and once landed back on the top of my ship, there seemed to be a few invisible walls that blocked my path so I couldn't get back to the looting area, perhaps a bug? I found it a bit too tricky to get over the end of the ramp between the ships but other than that it was really fun
@yaroslav-kravtsov @wyl-team thanks for kind words! It was our first LD jam, but already can't wait for the next one!
The voice acting was fun, I'm surprised that you opted out of the audio category, as the songs and voices sounded original! The download is quite large for a game that basically has a single level, so maybe next time compress some stuff a bit more!
Kudos for a pirate theme!
ARRRGH! Blow me down! Shiver me timbers! What a beautiful game ye've got there arr, matey! Yer voice be like o' an angle! I have never plundereth more booty in my whole life! I wish we could hop on a Man-O-War and chase those landlubbers for all they have got and Let them walk the good old gankplank! We'd be the gentlemen o' fortune that there the seven seas 'as ne'er spied. Ye be the scourge o' the seven seas an' we'd 'ave more swag than we could e'er spend!
@kobrasadetin I opted out because we had one song and ambient from the net (CC) and we read guidelines and didn't know better. Next jam we will go full original audio! I have half year to learn an instrument :guitar:
10/10 would plunder again!
I love the dumb song at the start, and all the little noises characters and animals make when you run into them. The game mechanics are intuitive and work well, the object you're holding changing color to show the balance was a nice touch. Good job!
Thank you for submitting the game to the stream. It was a great first game to play. It's always exciting to launch a game made with unreal engine, some of the effects that you made look super dope. I get a "Minecraft with RTX on" feeling from the graphics in general.
The idea is really cool, I haven't seen anything like it in the jam. You incorporated the theme in multiple different ways which was nice to see. Great idea to have the items lose value each time you dropped it (instead of, for example, breaking. Which would have been a lot more frustrating and made the entire experience a lot less pleasant).
The singing before you go to plunder, which turns into the instrumental version when you board the ship was an awesome little detail which I appreciated a lot. Shame that I can't rate you on Audio!
Seaguls... the damn seaguls! There was a lot of humor in this game for sure :)

Sorry it was a bit laggy in the first half. I really enjoyed this one, though! A very unique idea executed with just the right amount of silliness :thumbsup:
Hey this was pretty cool!! I had fun with the silly nature of the game. Thanks for submitting!!
Fun, but I couldn't tell why the value of my loot would just start crashing out for no reason while it was in my hand, under the deck.
Well it definitely fit the theme of Unstable - so much so that I think I started to feel a bit seasick :sweat_smile:
I struggled a bit at first to know how to get started, I'd gone through the tutorial screens but then totally forgotten as soon as I started - I think some in-game prompts (maybe on screen controls) would be really helpful instead of putting it all before you start.
Other than that, I thought this was a pretty funny game, especially the audio (which I can see why you've opted out of) but I think that's still worth points overall and for humour too. Great job!
(now excuse me while I go stare at the horizon for a bit)
I've uploaded a recording of my playthrough that you can see here at 06:05 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGeqptPhJRk
I loved the whole aesthetic of the game and feel it was very polished, so good job on that. Somehow though, the 'swaying' effect made me feel a little ill after a short while
A funny little game. Well done.
@lintfordpickle it takes time for a fresh seaman to grow the sealegs ;) Thanks for the kind words!
The last level is super hard but fun, lol love the beatboxing
