Voyage of Discovery by alexlarioza
**Please read the ReadMe.txt included in the zip. There is a lot of controls and concepts that aren't obvious to everyone.**
A Rouge-like game with a sailing/colonization theme. The ultimate goal of the game is to colonize all of the islands. You must also manage your supplies and survive pirate attacks.
There are still bugs that I've run across, but I don't want to fix them for none of them are game breaking. (Spelling errors, collisions, etc) The ones that I have fixed are listed below in the edits. I am already working on a post-compo version, so check out my blog if you want more information.

*Oh and, you need a numpad. Sorry! I didn't have time for key customization. You can use the Numpad fix if you want.*

Game instructions are included in the readme.txt
[edit01] Hold on fixing links
[edit02] Fixed links! I will add my time lapse once youtube finishes processing it.
[edit03] Added time lapse and blog post links.
[edit04] Numpad notice
[edit05] Solution for people without a numpad! I wrote a quick script in AHK (Also included the .exe) that converts the TYUJMNBGH keys to work as numpad keys. I also made the V key act as the B key so you can still buy supplies. The script will run in your tray, remember to exit it after you are done playing!

Game looks like fun though. I would have liked it I think. Maybe too ambitious for a 48 hour contest.
Most prominent problems are the awkward controls. Before I ever discovered new colonies I'd always be killed by pirates or run out of supplies.
Unfortunately I have a laptop and had to use the remap thingie. With that B for buy is not available anymore ;)
Also, pet peeve of mine: Cut out that topmost style.
@Endurion I know the controls aren't for everybody, I wish I had more time to add customization. =[ As I stated above, when using the numpad fix the [b] key gets remapped to the [v] key.
