Does anyone have any ideas? For example, i could make a mode after you get through enough levels you control a big pirate ship instead. ---

I dont think the link above works! here is an updated version with better U.I.

I used the color fading extension to get that darker tan color for the shading effect. without that, it doesnt look very good. ---

This is pretty cool. Only suggestion I have is adding a crosshair to help the player aim. ---

Hello Everyone! The next update is ready for release. > **[Blunderbuss v0.2](https://arcade.makecode.com/S27444-34719-10333-94034)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. - Added New Boss - KrackenKlaw - Added Boss music - Added Crosshair - Added Ammo system - made minor UI tweaks - Added new ability which will allow the player to heal. however, since it is unlocked after defeating the boss, in the current addition it is unusable. I intend to make weekly updates to Blunderbuss through August. The next update will either be a jungle themed area or a town themed area. _Poll ([view on site](https://forum.makecode.com/t/blunderbuss-raycasting-pirate-doom-game/29868/11))_ ---

Hello everyone! It has been some time since the last update. I apologize for that, but i am happy to announce that the game is nearly finished. I had originally planned on there being 5 bosses, but i have realized that the game is already long enough, so there will be three. The boss shown above will not make the final cut, but he may return in the future. The final boss will be in the next update. **I speak with no tongue, yet whisper your fate, My eyes have no sight, but I watch as you wait. I linger in shadows, a skull in the night, Bound to the ship by a curse locked tight. Face me, and the sea shall roar, For I am the captain forevermore.** [Next page](https://forum.makecode.com/t/blunderbuss-raycasting-pirate-doom-game/29868.md?page=2)
