Plunder all the gold ye can, me hearty, but beware the ghosts! Upgrade yer ship to give yourself the best chance to survive for 5 minutes against a new wave of ghosts every 30 seconds.
\nEnjoyable. The upgrades are pretty nice but they ramp up in cost quite quickly.
\nWhen a wave starts, it’s impossible to dodge the ghosts since they appear from all sides. They should pick one or two sides and come from there instead.

Maybe some upgradeable interactive weapons would be nice? An expensive “nuke” for example, to clear at least a part of the screen..?\nThe graphics are solid. The pixel-effect is a good aesthetic choice. But i wonder how it would look using non pixelated vector-graphics?
\nThe sound-effect is ok, maybe a piece of music (haunting, or sea-shanty) would add to the atmosphere of the gameplay?
\nThe initial waves of ghost are a bit too much to handle.
\nBut i played the game a couple of times, and was entertained by it every time. Good entry!

I like the gameplay, but it felt a bit too hard to me. After the first wave there were immediately so many ghosts it was hard to avoid, couldn’t outrun them, and hard to maneuver away with the narrow channels.
\nUpgrades were great, lots of options, but I also wanted to be able to spent all my available gold rather than just choosing one.

\nI love the idea, but I’d love to make a few suggestions for improvement:
\nWell, interesting concept and also percs, but reallly not balanced.\nAt least too difficult for me.\nBut good graphics and process\nGood Job!

I do understand where commenters are coming from in terms of the difficulty, but I think this game is about picking the best of two bad options. You’re going to get hit, it’s about mitigating that by choosing the correct path and selecting the best upgrades. Great to see this as a full game too in future

\nThis is so well done!\nNice sound effects, simple yet they really do the job well.\nThe first wave is simple enough to get you started in the game and understand directly + wanna keep going.
\nReally neat overall, the upgrade add a bit of replayability too.

Seems like the arrow keys didn’t work for me on desktop, but it wasn’t too bad using the mobile controls with a mouse. The waves seem to come a bit faster than I can get upgrades for, but that could be solved with a bit of tweaking and player testing.
