I like the graphics and the pirates drowning. There isn't much point in me moving around, though; basically I just stay in the same spot and jump when the admiral turns around. Right?"},{"author_name":"2HitAdam","author_uid":"15390","time":"Dec 20, 2013 @ 3:50am","epoch":1387511100,"text":"Yeah pretty much, it's not very challenging. What I'd like to do is have the screen scroll when you move, and have the admiral's ship moving right the whole time. If he comes across a pirate ship he'll get boarded and thrown overboard. That way it'd play more like an escort mission, keep him safe from A to B by drowning the pirates, making it a little harder and giving the player more of an objective."},{"author_name":"Coblynau","author_uid":"29114","time":"Dec 20, 2013 @ 9:26am","epoch":1387531260,"text":"Good fun game; scores and sound effects would improve it but the gameplay is solid and it makes a change to have a game where the enemy falls on sight instead of the player."},{"author_name":"Brainless Games","author_uid":"25344","time":"Dec 22, 2013 @ 6:42pm","epoch":1387737420,"text":"Nice simple little game"},{"author_name":"iiechapman","author_uid":"14399","time":"Dec 28, 2013 @ 1:02am","epoch":1388192220,"text":"Great job on the graphics!
