Looks very cool!

This game has a really nice graphics and atmosphere. The carribbean vibe is on spot. The only thing that was a bit hard to get into were the controls. It was kind of hard to navigate the ship, but other than that, very pretty and fun game. I loved the shooting mechanic :)

Looks very fun tho unfortunately like someone else said it doesnt register mouse clicks so I couldn't use the shop. Also movement of the boat is very slow. I saw there are upgrades for the speed but again shop didnt work. Visuals and music were very nice tho!Reminded me a bit of Sid Meier's pirates

I like the game, the only problem I had was the time it took to go left or right, so it was hard to manouvre. This made the seafights a bit less fun because it was very hard to hit the opponent. Other than that it was a pretty fun game, well done!

Yarrr, it's a super fun idea and the octopus on the boat is hilarous. I ran into a few problems though:

- like some people already mentioned above, I also could not click to buy stuff and upgrades - some pirates were spawning in an on top of mountains - the movement of the boat without updates is slow, but not too slow, considering its a ship, but the reverse is a bit weird and I had some situations where I and the pirates "moonwalked" around each other in circles. - the gun are fun to shoot, but are on a random cooldown (literally)? Which seems to reset when you press the button, even though you didn't fire again

I still really enjoyed the vibe and drove around the map to explore and sink some ships. If you manage to fix the clicking issues, I would also give it another shot... (at the pirates) ;)
