This was a lot of fun! Lots of cool bells and whistles for a Jam game that I really appreciated like the little emotes my ship would do, the fact that there were classes and color options and even the upgrade menu and roulette (I don't actually know how I accessed the upgrade menu and couldn't bring it back up to make my ship even faster). But most importantly, every main aspect of the game just felt good and worked! Nicely done! Will be back after I've gone and rated some more games to deliver the rest of the pies :D !

Once I got the ship controls it became really fun, although I did encounter some collision issues here and there but nothing that would break the game.
LOVED IT !
Lots of cools stuff in here, like multiple classes and an upgrade system.
This was surprisingly fun once I got into it! I liked the idea of being able to level up and that there were multiple classes. The controls were a bit jittery and it wasn't always clear what I did wrong or right when a pie was delivered or not. Not getting top marks for graphics, since they were free assets, but that's fine. Not sure how the theme was implemented.
I found the controls a bit hard and unintuitive but besides that it is a good game. The graphics (including UI) a very clean and the amount of content (including ship classes, color choice etc.) is unusually extensive for a Game Jam!
Interesting game. Basically a shooter, only not in space but at sea. Still much better than a regular shooter because there are missions, gambling, multiple classes of ships with their advantages and disadvantages and it is never monotonous. For the best result, it is best not to upgrade the ship at all because it costs a lot of gold and the game is short and ends after the final boss. I had a better result when I lost my life earlier than reaching the end.The graphics are good, although they seem generic to me. The music loop suits the game even though it is short and after a while it becomes tiresome. The controls are fine for me after a little getting used to them. A solidly made game with more depth than meets the eye.
Loved destroying other ships and islands ! :D
Fun to play with upgrades ! :o
well made !
I would have preferred WASD over the arrow keys, but the game is fun and have lots of mechanics going on. Good work!
Really polished game, I love it. And the graphics are gorgeous. I would just change the controls, I think it would be more intuitive for the Up key to always move the ship forward.
Great game! loved the setting and the gameplay was great! I lied figuring out how to line up the shot. The ships seemed to get stuck on the land's edge a lot and control kind of weirdly. It was also hard to tell when you were delivering the pies, some kind of visual indicator might have helped. I also didn't seem to get any coins from the waves of ships in the ambush. The barrier exploding sound was way too loud. Overall, very impressed with how much you were able to include here. Great work!
Really cool bunch of systems you got going on here! Classes, upgrades, gambling, etc. Although I should say as a right-handed WASD gamer reaching my left arm over to the arrow keys caused me physical pain lol
Ahoy might pie-rate! I have always love for the sailing games. I liked this one too!
A real fun game! I have been playing for almost half an hour and I really enjoy it. however the controls are a bit difficult to get used to. but the gameplay makes up for what it's lost. and I am glad that this game has leaderboards for the players to keep track on their scores. I love it!
