Welcome to my very first Ludum Dare game jam. I am happy to have finally found the time and just wanted to say thank for taking the time to take a look at my game. Any feedback is appreciated.

The game is simple in concept, you are a pirate looking to plunder. You've come across a small bay that is filled with fishing boats and merchant ships ripe for the picking. Take out as many ships as you can and collect the booty, but keep an eye out because the Royal Navy will surely come after you.

Debris_1.png This is debris and it can be found on islands and floating out at sea or on the corpses of your fallen enemies. If you are low on health you can pick up the debris by moving over it and you will be healed by 1hp.

Gold Urn You will also find treasure throughout your pillaging which is the whole reason you became a pirate in the first place. Just move near the treasure to add it to your stash.

Controls - wasd for movement - spacebar or left mouse button to fire

You can hold down the fire button to continually fire shots.

Enemies - Fishing boat. This enemy is neutral and doesn't attack unless provoked. In fact, he doesn't want much trouble and so will ignore the first shot fired at him. - Merchant ship. This enemy is neutral but has no issue attacking when provoked and is well armed. - Royal ship. Very aggressive and will aggro onto you should one get too close. Very well armed and is likely to royally wreck you.

Tools used to make this game - Unity3d and C# - Krita for the art

Enjoy.

This game was a lot of fun to play! The islands with gold on them was a nice touch. Sometimes the royal ships felt too op, but I suppose that's what I get for destroying the Empire's fishing economy :)

I really enjoyed your game. I legitimately had fun playing it. I found it interesting that i could ram into rocks, islands, and other ships without sustaining damage. I liked the RPG elements you added to it! I had to work hard to earn that Attack power up

I did enjoy the game and found it somewhat challenging, I can imagine an improvement would be to be able to shoot in all directions (and the other ships also)
