Ahoy Captains!
We thought we'd keep you in the loop about our plans as it's been a while since our last update:

This October will mark our 5-year anniversary of the full release of Abandon Ship, and you'll know from our other anniversaries we like to give away free updates that coincide with them, so we're planning on doing something similar later this year.
Recently we've been busy on our new game, which releases today. You may recall in our last free update one of the new ships was themed around this new game:
We thought that if Abandon Ship was giving a shared-world nod to SENTRY, then it was only fair that SENTRY returned the favour, so we hid a piece of Cult-themed graffiti in one of the levels:
A bit of fun? Or a hint towards the MCU-equivalent for Fireblade Software?
Anyway, do check out SENTRY if defending spaceships is your sort of thing.
Oh and we've heavily discounted Abandon Ship - I like the idea that when we launch a new game, we also have a sale on our previous games as a sort of studio celebration. Since we're only 2 games in to our journey, consider this the start of a tradition :)
Thanks for all the support, and we'll see you in the Autumn...

Discover a huge amount of unique, story-filled islands across diverse biomes and themed areas: Fight ghost ships in the Haunted Seas. Ward off giant arachnids in the Spider Islands. Regions filled with poisonous gas, icebergs, cannibals and much more await.
Engage enemy ships, fortifications and sea monsters in vicious combat, employing your best tactics to out-manoeuvre and out-gun the enemy. Weather and environmental conditions affect your battles: Tidal waves, lightning strikes, volcanic bombardments and blizzards are just some of the modifiers that impact your strategy.
Abandon Ship focuses on ‘Age of Sail’ ships in a Fantasy setting, framed in an Art Style inspired by classic Naval Oil Paintings.
Life in this world can be brutal. Death is permanent. But the journey doesn’t end if your vessel is destroyed. You are the Captain, and as long as the Captain is alive, there is always hope.
By escaping to a Lifeboat, or even being stranded, alone in the water, there is a chance to survive and fight your way back to the top.
Combat is tactical and savage. Each battle is hard-fought, always on the edge of defeat. Your only chance of overcoming the odds is to employ every advantage you can bring to bear.
Dozens of diverse weapons and upgrades are available to utilise on the various ship classes you can acquire. Customise your vessels appearance by capturing enemy ships intact. Your trusty crew gain experience and traits to help provide an edge over the enemy.
Explore a fantasy world that reacts to your actions. Engage in piracy and become a hunted Captain. Undertake quests that may drastically change the environment – or the entire world. Make decisions that create allies or enemies that return to help or seek vengeance.
Play multiple stories, including the main campaigns tale of overthrowing a Cthulhu-esque Cult, a Freeplay mode about rebuilding the legacy of your forebears, and shorter tales, such as the combat campaign focused on rescuing your sister, or Sword of the Cult, where you play as one of Father’s children, climbing the ranks until you’re granted the ultimate weapon: The Kraken.
