Yo ho!


🏴‍☠️ Welcome aboard 🏴‍☠️

Thou art sailing the heart of the unstable seas of the Caribbean, host of many ships (and seagulls).
Those ships contain valuable cargo that a mighty pirate such as thyself hath to bring back.

Destroy the privateers' galleons by shooting them with thy sturdy cannon. But beware!

The sea can be calm, but also twisted and tricky! Aiming is not mere childplay on the windy ocean!

Goal


Thy goal is to steal the cargo of 25 galleons.

How to play

Mechanics


* Hold the shoot button to start loading your cannon; release it to shoot.
