definite sunless seas vibes out of this. That's a good thing.

Loved the aesthetic and the top down boat experience!

Ooooh, nice one!! Really liked the time on the start to learn the controls and get a feeling of what's going on, and the music set the tone very nicely, and personally, i liked the setting. Graphics are nice as well, but I've found a bit hard to tell when you're about to die. I've got lost quite a bit, and the game loses some tension when that happens. Overall, i've enjoyed playing the game!

I really like the soundtrack and artwork.

I had fun with this, it was challenging, the enemy AI is surprisingly good for a jam game. The music works really well with it.

It would be cool to have upgrades to cannons, speed etc. The shooting mechanic felt a little slow sometimes. I wished I could shoot two single cannons in quick succession rather than a double shot.

Nice work!

A little bit chalenging, the music I feel was a bit loud, but fitting for the game. The AI is rather good and I like the different ways of attacking it has

Loved the atmosphere, I was legit scared at an advanced level where 3 ships were following my steps, turning the same way I turn at the same time.
Would add some kind of punishment for shooting, maybe slowing down or losing light, to avoid me just spamming shots. But overall cool entry, liked it!

This was weirdly relaxing to play even though I was chased around the map by hordes of evil ships. It controlled really nicely and I loved the atmosphere. The ships that followed my every move were always creepy as I felt pretty helpless against them :smile:

Really nice graphics! It was clear to see what everything was, and I'm always impressed by a good water effect! Nice job here!

Loads of mood here with the excellent visuals and right on theme. Nice sfx and enjoyable gameplay - I made it to harbour many times before the light extinguished. Good entry and awesome game title!

I really liked the water shader and the bow wave particles! Sometimes the ghost ships went a bit crazy and started to shake furiously. Overall a solid entry, keep it up!

The music is the best part of it, great work. I always love ship games. Maybe the UI is a bit clucky and not clear at first time.

The controls are good, and the mood is great. The game was confusing thought, as I didn't know where to look for the dock

I enjoyed the game, but after the first harbor it was a bit confusing on what to do. The graphics are well done and it feels immersive.

It had a very nice mood. At first I thought the game is going forward to somewhere, but then the maps were being reused and I figured there's no end (which is fitting). The art looks great, I wish there was something more to do, but it's ok anyway. Good job!

@suchista there were plans for that but we didn't have time to make it happen. We have plans to follow up on the game though, maps, upgrades, objectives, resources and all that cool stuff that didn't make the basic feature cut!
Thanks for playing!
