I liked the random nature of each day.  Made consecutive play throughs feel different.  I only had an issue with the fact that you could run out of cannonballs mid fight and have no option than to just let the other ship kill you.  Nice work on the game though.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"vjmunhoz","author_uid":"1144255","time":"2019-05-04T13:43:42Z","epoch":1556977422,"modified":1556977422,"text":"interesting concept! the theme is well placed.

I really love the concept. But, it's too hard. It's not at all easy to avoid damage during fights.\nLike, I've managed to survive first 7 days thinking, it's ok, to repair the damage to the ship, I'll just cash out some. It was 285 gold!?! And I got around 60 during those 7 days. :scream: \n\nBut, with some balancing, this game would actually be one of the best games this LD, from my perspective.","likes":0,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld44\/153581-4ecdaf2a5aea262a59c94f6407b62002.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/cwiep.itch.io\/slaves-of-the-carribean","text":"Windows"},{"url":"https:\/\/cwiep.itch.io\/slaves-of-the-carribean","text":"HTML5 (web)"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"54649","g_author":"1003525","g_event":"LD44","g_eventkey":"75","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"254850","g_title":"Slaves of the Carribean","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"99999","g_commentcount":"14","g_site2_node_id":"153581","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0.100624"},"nds":{"n_key":"153581","n_urlkey":"254850","n_parent":"139254","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/44\/slaves-of-the-carribean","n_slug":"slaves-of-the-carribean","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"3525","n_created":"1556570979","n_modified":"1556577639","n_version":"453735","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":153581,"parent":139254,"superparent":9,"author":3525,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2019-04-29T22:36:37Z","created":"2019-04-29T20:49:39Z","modified":"2019-04-29T22:40:39Z","version":453735,"slug":"slaves-of-the-carribean","name":"Slaves of the Carribean","body":"You are a ruthless captain of a ship, using the lifes of slaves as currency and for your profit.\nEverything is controlled with the mouse.
