Ocean Fest is done, so what is next?

1. The Playtest Playtest is crucial for so many fronts: Testing the game, bringing the game to you and getting your feedbacks. Our game should be sharp and shinning when we release it! Like a cutlass!.. But a cute one.

changed1. The PlaytestAnd also, this is a good opportunity for us to show you guys what our game actually is. The trailer was silly but gameplay will be sillier 😁

added1. The PlaytestBut the most important part is your feedbacks. Honestly, we believe playtest will be interesting for the people who are really excited for the party game genre, which is the core audience we want to reach. And we really want to create a game that you guys will enjoy. With your feedbacks we can give better direction. We might even add something from you guys to the game! And this is not a sh*ty corporate promise. Guys we are 3 people team and you have no idea how many times we read comments or talk about the reactions that we get around 👀

changed1. The PlaytestIt's scale will probably be smaller or exact size of the demo (Yes, there will be a demo eventually). And we might want to hold more than one playtest, depending on the results. So, make sure you joined the playtest from our steam store page!

added2. CosmeticsWe got some feedbacks about how silly was to show only 5 customization items in the trailer. Hihi, that was right. Emir already dedicated himself for creating bunch of new customization items. So no worries, there will be plenty 👺

added2. CosmeticsAlso during Ocean Fest, we got some attention from certain regions (GUYS WE WERE ON FAMITSU!!). Not just Japan but we would like to show our appreciation by adding cosmetics depending on the regions that we get the wishlists most. So you guys will get some cosmetics from your culture. Moreover, who knows... Maybe you can be a king of the pirates.

1. The Playtest

Playtest is crucial for so many fronts: Testing the game, bringing the game to you and getting your feedbacks.

Our game should be sharp and shinning when we release it! Like a cutlass!.. But a cute one. So testing is a must and we need your help for that. Not just bugs but also for game direction and balancing. Our friends already yelling at us that our levels are hard... But let's see what you think 😈

And also, this is a good opportunity for us to show you guys what our game actually is. The trailer was silly but gameplay will be sillier 😁

You will get a glimpse of what our game actually is (and also it will be the first time our game will be your hands! GOOOSEBUMPS!!!)

But the most important part is your feedbacks. Honestly, we believe playtest will be interesting for the people who are really excited for the party game genre, which is the core audience we want to reach. And we really want to create a game that you guys will enjoy. With your feedbacks we can give better direction. We might even add something from you guys to the game!

3. A New Character

There is a new bean coming up. Say hi to our nerdy shipwright! If you have a keen eye, you might have seen him before. He was already present in our arts, on the background but he were there. He will be the 3rd crew member in the game. His concept is ready and we are waiting his model.

There will be 1 more, the 4th and last member of the crew. But we will share her details later. 🤭

Please don't think this as our full focus. We are developing the game in other areas as well. New levels, fresh UI, lots of bugfixes etc. But these are the decided pieces we can share with you guys. There will be more devlogs about other stuff. So stay tuned! 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️
