A’hoy there! It’s been a few months since our last update but today we’re pleased to finally release our free play mode custom map editor. With this new feature, you’ll have the option to create your own unique archipelagos using a wide variety of configurable parameters, which can also be shared with your fellow pirate captains using unique seed IDs. The map editor also includes toggle-able options for unlocking all ship customization options and decorations so you can freely build the ultimate pirate utopia! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44771533/342be28d7be8e40bf76189b516f339db60bba404.jpg Getting sta

Greetings Captains, we bring good news! Today we’re releasing our next free update which adds two brand new maps to free play mode. Both maps were designed to have a different gameplay focus to mix up the free play experience, and feature new geography, starting island conditions, and challenges to overcome.

Ahoy mateys! It's been a few weeks since our last free update where we introduced a new captain and fleet management system, the ability to scuttle ships, and swap captains between vessels. We wanted to give you a quick update on our plans for future content as we look ahead to the next few months of development. Improving replayability: Additional maps and map generation Having been working through your requests in our backlog, we identified that a lot of feedback centres around replayability.

Land ho! We’ve released a new update! Continuing on from the improvements we made in our last update, this latest batch of new content focuses on enhancing captain and fleet management by introducing a fleet overview UI, the ability to salvage ships, swap assigned captains between ships, and fire unassigned captains. Our ultimate goal here is to give you more freedom when customising and optimising your fleet, while allowing you to develop your favourite captains over the course of a campaign or free play mode session.

Hey everyone!

“The Republic Of Pirates was meant to be different…” laments the narration in the opening of the seafaring resource-chain-em-up strategy, out today with a demo on Steam at time of writing. This made me laugh, in the same way someone saying “the failure of Bastard City was deeply sobering” might. Yes, I know the pirate republic was a real thing, ended not by the infighting and treachery shown here, but by the British. I will avoid easy gags about Plundering Loisences and instead lightly recommend the demo to you. It’s got enough meat on its bones for a less brainwidth-ho
