The Greedy Pirates by Rolly
As the proud captain of the ship, you have to make decisions. Some of them are good, some of them are bad. Spoiler alert: your decision to unload all canons from the ship to load more treasure chests was a bad idea.
Your goal is now to travel back home, only 1500 kilometers (932 miles) away! Think you can make it? Of course, other ships have heard of the great treasures you are transporting, and they prefer to see them deep in the sea rather than in the hands other than theirs.
The Greedy Pirates is a typing game. You control your crew, calling them by name, and give instructions. Everything is explained in the "How to Play" section in the menu.
Controls
All interactions are done by typing. Tip: You only need the letters A-Z. No need to type the spaces, dots and other marks.
Changelog
Everything was done in 48 hours, except the following items. Both versions are available, but I would recommend playing the fixed version, as it doesn't bring any major feature, but fixes some items: - Fixed a blocking issue when a pirate name was called while this pirate was climbing the mast or a ladder. - Reviewed the how to play screen to avoid text overlapping in some screen resolutions. - Added a note in the how to play screen to recommend playing in full screen. - Fixed an issue with the leaderboard api, that wouldn't properly insert the ' character in the database.
