It may work with Moonlight on Linux but is untested as of yet.\r\n\r\nImportant: If you are playing the original version and the queen asks you to get her 5000 gold coins reload. You will never finish!\r\n\r\nThe premise is that you are a ship captain that the Queen tasks to get a certain number of items (It is random). You must sail between the islands to obtain the requested number of items to win the game. Pirates will attempt to steal your cargo so you must also stock cannons and swords to fight them with.\r\n\r\nThere is a strategy guide posted here: http:\/\/www.ludumdare.com\/compo\/2010\/04\/28\/strategy-guide-for-voyage-for-the-queen\/\r\n\r\nThe game was written using Visual Studio and Silverlight. It is using the WriteableBitmapEx library for blitting. Photoshop was used for the graphics.\r\n\r\nThe bugfix version has the following fixes. The original is also in a link above for the purists:\r\n\r\n*Pirates who manage to get through both cannon and sword defenses will now steal all your stuff rather than just saying they did.\r\n*The queen will now not select coins or cannons for the quest as they were problematic.\r\n*Pirates can no longer show up with negative number of swords and cannons.\r\n*Removed exploit where player could get out of a pirate battle by hitting the X on the window.<\/p>","title":"Voyage for the Queen"}
