    Only played a couple times and its really fun! The tutorial is spot on - I knew what to do immediately - but then again I might be skewed from seeing the videos and all. Only played through twice so far - not connected to OF yet - and got to around 420 and died each time! Sheesh. But its SO FUN!
     
  11. I'm really sorry mebeswordguy! We'd love to include you but the five extra players have already been chosen. We really appreciate your interest. Please PM us your UDID anyway so we can keep you in mind for testing of future updates and games.

    TwoLivesLeft: What do each of the new items do? It would be easier for me to make a decision if I knew what they did ;P

    This game is awesome! Fun! I gotta get used to it though, my high score is only 450
     
  16. Good point! Here's a brief description

    Pistol
    A targeting reticle appears over a nearby enemy. Tapping the Pirate Pistol will kill the enemy at a distance. There is a short reload time (unlike the Cutlass which is quick at short range).


    Parrot
    He flies around collecting coins for you and fights Crows for their coins. Perches on your head - so you cannot wear a Hat and use the parrot.


    Peg Leg
    A new jumping ability or mechanic. What do you guys think this should do? We felt the game could use a Peg Leg since it has all the other Piratey stereotypes (Eye patch, Captain's Hat, Fake Beard, and so on).


    Voodoo Doll
    [​IMG]
    You press this to spawn a billowing cloud of black Voodoo Smoke and Skulls surrounding your character. Enemies that enter are slowed, and if they stay long enough, die. Especially good for bats.


    Sacrificial Rubber Chicken
    [​IMG]
    This one is bizarre. You hold down the Sacrificial Rubber Chicken ability to start the ritual, if you complete the ritual by holding down the ability for long enough you get a random reward (chest, repairs, health, interesting side effects). The more dangerous the area you complete the sacrifice in the more likely you are to get a good reward. If you fail to complete the sacrifice you are randomly cursed. The Rubber Chicken has a long recharge time between sacrifices.

    The parret seems the most useful and the chicken the most exciting but I'' go with the chicken for now. Any chance we could see all of this in various updates as they all sound good to me.

    Hi skyye,

    These are the items planned for the first two updates, though not all of them may make the cut. We have six updates planned so far, with each update including content of a specific theme. The first two are:

    Pirate Mayhem: new game modes, piratey backgrounds, and pirate related items

    Voodoo Value: new voodoo items, Voodoo story and scenes, some other interesting additions

    The results of the poll will help us decide which update to release first.

    Edit: Updated scores. FriendlyToaster's OpenFeint avatar is awesome.
