Became easier as the game went on, which i think should be reversed however.

I am really interested in this game since it was implemented with Javascript\/HTML\/Canvas ... I implemented my submission the same way. Great to see other Canvas games. Definitely will be taking a look at the code! Nice job :]"},{"author_name":"bradleypollard","author_uid":"17874","time":"Dec 17, 2013 @ 3:03pm","epoch":1387292280,"text":"Game was rough to start, and damn those pirate invasions at your home base.

You get the upgrades very easily though, then it's all smooth sailing (...sorry).

And making something like that in 48 hours is a great achievements. The concept of being torn between defending your home and launching attacks is really appealing.

Lovely minimap. I really wanted some sound effects for those cannons, though. =)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The cannonball velocity wasn't cumulative with the ship's velocity, which made aiming in the direction of travel a little strange, but probably easier overall. Upgrading before setting sail for the first time appears to be super important; I got whacked my first time out.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I never figured out what the spies did; maybe notifying you of an attack before the ships were actually close enough to fire on the port?\r<br\/>\r<br\/>-mildmojo"},{"author_name":"Christian S.","author_uid":"12945","time":"Jan 3, 2014 @ 1:36pm","epoch":1388755860,"text":"Solid design with nice little details (like the trail the ship leaves in the water).
