This is amazing! GuitarHero, Jack Sparrow, Tenacious D, killer pixel art and four AA batteries all boldly sailed into a maelstrom together!
I love shanties, chiptune, and retro gaming so this game looks like a must-have in my book! I can't wait to play it on real hardware. Fingers crossed you all end up selling digital versions too for those of us collecting on flash carts.
This was bonkers hard for me to play on a keyboard since the key layout (although standard) was flipped to what my thumbs would be doing on a handheld console. I couldn't make my brain accept the flip. But that just makes me want to play on my GB all the more!
Only complaint is the flash before the portraits appear in the dialogue boxes. I love the artwork. Once it's on screen it really sells the immersion. But the flash on every new set of words became a bit jarring when reading through a conversation or a set of instructions.
For real, watching intently for the full release!
