I enjoyed moving around but I didn't do very well. I tried to kill the shooting towers but they shot me too fast and the reach of my cannons made it so that I needed to get really close to kill them, while they shot very far.\r\rOverall I think this could be a gem if the fighting gameplay elements are tightened up a bit.\r\rWonderful entry otherwise! Good luck :)"},{"author_name":"magmaCrab","author_uid":"40609","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 9:20pm","epoch":1409001300,"text":"Hey guys, thanks for all the feedback and kind words. I made the towers the way they are because you don't really benefit from killing them, aside from the small gold bonus. You only need to kill a few to be able to trade.\r\rMaybe I playtested the game so much I became quite good at avoiding the arrows :)\r\rI will upload a 32 bit version as fast as possible."},{"author_name":"aGoodPointPoorlyMade","author_uid":"39789","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 9:29pm","epoch":1409001840,"text":"Great gameplay, graphics, and sound with NES flavour.

I don't know why I can shoot, since shooting doesn't seem to affect the enemies. It's also confusing why when you go up to a trading hut, it starts out grayed out but then you can trade with it... clicking on it seems to do something, but I don't know why. Sometimes when I try to trade, it won't let me. Nice polish, otherwise."}],"images":["ld30\/40609-4c70d201a1a9e4186d5a19a69ca1e021.jpg","ld30\/40609-f220d2afbe118865d69e5a1c0a138641.jpg","ld30\/40609-a11169cf639254859b8bb047cda8cf23.jpg","ld30\/40609-bf9fa32900131bfaf0528693308735b8.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/download\/bql64s88usdt9rc\/Galeas1.0.zip","text":"Windows 64 bit"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/download\/ecj1h2m0la52759\/galeas32.zip","text":"Windows 32 bit"},{"url":"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/download\/dqxkh69861x6fgg\/LD30.zip","text":"Source"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"17203","g_author":"40609","g_event":"LD30","g_eventkey":"24","g_subevent":"COMPO","g_urlkey":"17232","g_title":"Galeas","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"372","g_commentcount":"21","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/375043\/40609-shot0.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/375043\/40609-shot1.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/375043\/40609-shot2.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/375043\/40609-shot3.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Hi there!

The ship has a limited supply of food and should return before the crew starves or the ship breaks.\r\n\r\nThe control are quite easy: WASD or arrow keys to move, E to trade and SPACE to shoot your cannons.
