Steer your pirate ship (which my have been made from an old racing prototype) around enemy cannon balls and fire at evil outposts in this pirate bullethell game!

How to play

W [up] to accelerate, S [down] to deccelerate, A/D [left/right] to turn, and spacebar [a button] to fire you side cannons! Remember to stay away from the rocks and to not get hit by cannon balls. Shoot the outposts to progress!

Nice work! I realized how bad at actually playing games with this one. For the boat rotation is there something built in for that?

I was spending a lot of time trying to cruse by at top speed and angle the cannonballs just right. Love it

This extension allows for sprite rotation. But be warned, it can look really bad on small sprites.

You should use the sprite scaling extension for a better rotation algorithm (need to go to awesome arcade for this the default one doesn’t have rotation)
You can see the difference pretty clearly

This is what the old cards used to look like lol

This is the first game I’ve played that used the ray casting to make what seems to be a solid and complete game. Good work!!

I of course was horrible at it :grinning:
