What's New (Version 3.0)

Thank you to everyone who has left reviews and offered feedback. As a solo developer, reading your thoughts means a lot to me and community suggestions directly inspired most of the features in this update. Here is what’s new on the high seas:

• Dynamic Weather: Navigate through dense fog and torrential rain that actively obscures your cannon timer and impacts combat strategy.
• Choose Your Captain: Take the helm as one of 7 distinct playable captains, unlockable as you build your legacy and progress through the game.
• The Plunder Chest: A newly redesigned end-of-run screen – tracking your Time Elapsed, Perfect Shot Accuracy, and gameplay milestones to fuel your high-score chasing.
• Global Stat Tracking: The Captain’s Log now permanently records your lifetime achievements, including Highest Infamy and Total Ships Sunk.
• Historical Lore: Tap the new info cards on captain portraits to uncover the real-world history behind the legendary pirates you encounter.
• Visual Damage System: Ships now show progressive battle damage, with small sparks erupting into devastating pixel-art fires.
• Combat Rebalancing: Faster cannon timers and tougher conditions make it more challenging than ever to become a legend of Bitmap Bay!
