Skull and Crossbones by Glenugie
Skull and Crossbones is a game about Pirates, Plunder, and the Conservation of Cannonballs. You play a pirate ship trying to make a living upon the high sea. British Navy ships will spawn to attack you, and Cargo ships will spawn and try to just sail past.
Cannonballs are persistent (and apparently made of styrofoam, since they float), when they've stopped moving any ship can claim them for their own. Each ship has a limited supply of cannonballs, and a maximum number that they can hold. To refill them pick up floating cannonballs (or a cannonball powerup). Be wary of the wind, it can slow or speed you - the colour of your wake will reflect this.
Game Controls:
WASD - Move Ship
Arrow Keys - Shows firing lines while held, fires on release (If Control is held when releasing the shot will cancel)
Spacebar - View Whole Map
NOTE: The Web version of this game is less stable than the Windows version, so if for some reason the Web version crashes - please try the Windows release (if you can)

Sound and graphic are super.
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 :)
but difficult to stimulate...(controls)
