Thanks again to Alex and Vitali for letting us get our dirty hands on this!

Yeah, tooltips, or even just names of blocks would be nice. I think being able to click and draw a 'line' of blocks would also be pretty cool for bigger ships. I'll post some screenshots soon, but other than those issues, I'm liking it so far.

EDIT: Random little thing, maybe allow a way for the background deco blocks to be placed behind the angled blocks?

EDIT2: Clicking on blocks rotates them. That's actually so intuitive, I didn't even think to do it.

Thank you for the access to the alpha. That's awesome!

I agree with what the other alpha-testers said, so I won't add any comments.

And, just because that makes me smile, a screenshot of a fun bug:

Well, here's my first ship.

Dunno if it'd actually sail, but it looks formidable at least...

I now want to try making a mini fleet of small attack boats, or something along those lines...

RAR extractor, check.

Ship built, check. Picture to come unless I've missed something essential and everyone dies.

As already said, needs tooltips.
I also found the background could be a bit hard to see ladders against in the builder.
Continuous block building would also be good.
But for a tech demo, this is great!

Access to the alpha? Ok, I have to try this.
Can't wait.

Hey everyone! Thank you for trying the game  .

I must say that i really hope you hold on abit, maybe like few weeks before the systsems get settled down, as the current version is not the version i want to present to you people.

I have good things planned for this game and its going to be epic in terms of gameplay ^__^

So, dont judge this tech demo that much as i know most of the problems and i am working on it

[Graknorke]

It's okay though because we know that the tech demo is just a tech demo. It's not like anyone (sensible) is going to judge the final product on it.

Gave it a quick look, looking awesome so far! Its a shame i couldnt figure out how to put sails on the masts, also even when i close the background of the ship if people stand under the water level they still seem to get wet/drown whatever.

I've already judged it.


















To be AWESOME.

Thanks for sharing =) Its fun to try out games in dev stages, esp pirate themed one ! Its got so big potential to, going to follow this closely..
Edit
First try, a basic singleman ship


Real fluid movement, and as many pirates did i meet my fate on a island near a treasure.. I thought i could handle the dogs haha!

edit2
Second try, this time i had a proper crew  . Lost one at the sea and the remaining were killed in cold blood by those angry strong dogs ...Sneaky dogs.






Three questions:
Are you planning on choosing different outfits or gear?
Whats your view on moddings support?
Could we later on send pirate forces to help strandend members or simply to avenge them?

Going back to try some more, cheers.

ukulele i think you build your ship underwater

So, no habitable part of the ship can be submerged? *sadface* i was already planing a submarine

[HopFlash]

I think more parts to build with are planned, right?
Tooltips also mentioned here.

What is with a zoom in and out function to see large ships better or look into more details while building?

Why can't I turn the halfblock 360° around? only two sides can be used or am I missing something?

I figured out randomly that I can place thinks whereever I want regardless of the green dots. Is this intended? I like it but then the green dots making fewer sense.

But it's really nice and smoothy to navigate and put parts together!
I like the graphics but I think it could a little bit confusing to see seperate things if they are "all" on one place (background, items, sailor(s)). The zoom function mentioned before would be nice

I know I trust you with this Vitali, everything I've seen has looked great, and made me want this more and more. Letting us try this out is an amazing move on your part and I really respect it. Best of luck, and I can't wait to see more!

Ooookay... so there's a LOT of blocks I didn't know did things. Explains why my guys would stand in a corner and starve. Also explains my lack of sails, the fact I had crows nests on the bottom of the ship... Did have cannons.

My design-fu needs work.
