Wow! I've played the demo and it's fantastic! Do you know when Matranet plans to release the boxed version?

The demo looks great and sounds nice. I had some trouble at first to go past the first screen (the "Spanish game curse" ? :)), but, switching to keyboard, it seems moving directly towards the opponents and kicking them is a good tactic, which allowed me to see what's next.

I liked the second screen with the boat throwing cannonballs (great parallax scrolling in between screens). The timer then got me, which I supposed is normal for a demo mode.

Very promising anyway!!

I can't find anything on YT, or screenshots. Impatient to listen new Mcklain tunes.


Edit: thanks for the video. I only regret that in 2020 barrels don't hurt enemies. I will order it.

Looks good...I have a weak spot for pirate games. Will there be a digital edition?

With the physical edition of the game, a DSK file will also come, but I don't know if it will be released for free later, I have to ask
EDIT: They tell me that at the moment not.

32 Euros is not really cheap, but probably worth.  :)

I meant if can you buy it digitally of course, not asking for freebies  ;D

Even if it was some time after releasing the physical copy, because I can understand they want to maximize the profits from this one now.

Perhaps drinking the rum increases the frame rate from 5 to 50hz?  :D
