New Merch Store!
Unfortunately those are hard to make, ship, or sell online so I've created the next best thing: A limited time merch store!
Hosted by shopify and printed by printful (not painstakingly handcrafted as usual) all high enough quality for this Captain's standards!
The desk pad is my personal favorite. There's no branding which makes it versatile! Use it as a giant mouse pad, a game mat to make cards easier to pick up (Try my card game on it), make your coworkers jealous, organize your crew rations on it, make it into a rum coaster for your table, roll it up and smack away seagulls, wrap yourself in it for warmth as the cruel winds blow down from the north- the possibilities are endless!
My second favorite piece is the Joyless Roger stealth shirt! Black printed on black is obviously the coolest possible cooler combination and it doesn't come cooler than this. The subtle design without branding makes it a flexible base piece for any everyday pirate looking to show their true colors.
There's a few other items on the store but all are currently limited to only 10 units available in total per size, per item, shipping in USA only. I don't plan on staying in the merch business forever at this time so fetch yer swag and toss a few doubloons my way because this whole ship will sink in January 2024. If things go well I may replenish stock in December, create more designs, more products, or other things... like a sheet of Caribbean Sail themed stickers. I'm testing new waters so we'll see where they take us!
Captain Blacksword is underway lads and I'm sharing updates regularly on the Discord and Twitter (or X marks the spot if you prefer) and cross posting to a strange little website called Stimulus.
WHAT THE DEVIL IS THAT? Since you asked and it no longer feels like I'm cornering you to talk about my endless passion projects apropos of nothing; I went an extra nautical mile as Captain Blacksword is intended to be an NES style arcade game and built my own tabletop arcade machine. I'm working on an arcade compatible demo to run that will be downloadable on my Kofi page for the Clambake Crew members.
Captain Blacksword has been in a toybox phase for longer than you've been ignoring the barnacles on your hull and as of today is now on course for completion. Feature creep has bogged things down long enough and I'm focused on creating levels. What lies before me is an estimated 100 days of work. Not days until release, 24 hour periods of solid development. Blacksword will not release until it has achieved 10,000 wishlists even if the game is 100% complete. This ship will sail or stay in port until I figure out how to create the wind myself. As a final announcement...
I am legally obligated not to disclose what it will be until January 1st.

You know what every good pirate needs? Cannons.

That's all well and good Captain but where's our next game?

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.
