It's been a stressful first three weeks but things have calmed down as I've patched out the last few bugs and discrepancies found. This means I can start designing and building content for "Route Planning" and share the details with you all when ready. There are still a few updates i'd to introduce while preparing the framework for the expansion so this week you'll find a completely redesigned logbook, it now has an index with five sections: Crew Log, Ship Log, Supplies, Journal, and Inventory. The journal is more of a personal notepad for you that is saved between voyages. The inventory tab empty right now but necessary for preparation of new items that will help you on your journey in an update soon. The Frigate art was redone (again) to have two masts and be less of an eyesore. Hull depth of large ships was changed for accuracy and reefs are less dangerous now- but still deadly. I corrected the terminology as to no longer call St. Georges Cross a Union Jack. (Dev Tip: Write dialogue after making the art) A lot of behind the scenes work is going on but you'll see more updates next week!

- The Caribbean Sail Linux [36.76 M]
Be the Captain of your own ship in the 1700's and make decisions that will determine your fate. Control everything from food rationing to amputating limbs. Sail for the British Navy or rebel and become a pirate. The lives of your crew are in your gout ridden hands.
Gameplay Overview
Name your crew, choose your profession, purchase a ship, stock up on supplies, and then set sail at the mercy of the wind. You'll encounter pirates, storms, disease, starvation, and death more as you sail 4,341 miles of open ocean.Survive the voyage and arrive in Nassau to have your captain's name uploaded to the leaderboard! If you fail and die horribly, you may leave behind a message in a bottle that you'll find as a marker on your next voyages.
Each vessel matches the speed of it's real life counterpart which will give you an accurate depiction of how difficult and tedious a journey across the ocean was in the age of sail. You could enjoy a casual experience on a Frigate as you fly across the waves and decimate pirates in a War Galleon like a rich ponce- or -Suffer a HARDCORE challenge on the Raft and struggle to feed your men daily while your vessel crawls along so slowly you'll BEG the wind to pick up.
