Full Disclosure: This game is only about 90% completed. All the functionality is in there, but end conditions are not hooked in, the most basic of art is missing, and the whole thing could stand some tuning. Have fun!
I enjoyed it. The difficulty curve took me by surprise when after a few days of "This is nothing", my ship was falling apart and most of my crew was injured.
Quite nice. It was difficult to know how to balance the crew without knowing the effect (like how many gunners needed for a wolf for example). Got difficult quickly.
It's interesting and certainly minimalistic. But there's something to be said about picking a crew that's very gunner heavy, and then the game simply becomes click the same spot for 2-3 minutes. There's definitely something there though in terms of the day to to ship management.
I stocked up on gunners early and then nothing much happened as I kept clicking through. Maybe some more types of events could be an idea to spice things up.
This kept me thinking- I enjoyed teh concept-i like how the crew mix has a dynamic effect on your survival rate- made it to the end -but still needs the big payoff!
I really liked this, it was really fun. The only issue I had was towards the end at around 2000 or so miles left in the journey, the end report (The crew was able to hold them off, etc.) stopped showing up and wouldn't let me know how many miles I had left and all the sound ceased as well. Overall it was a fun game but I would have liked to see the end.
