Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 1/day in the week to Aug 2 → 2.29/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 26 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 7 places towards #1, and the 2,400 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

The hot pink-wearing, fish-chomping, cigar-huffing Captain Wayne refuses to let anything stand between him and his gory conquest to rob and humiliate every rich asshole around the globe.
After losing his arm in a terrible encounter with the legendary Vampire Whale, Wayne replaced it with his trusty shotgun, The Captain's Ol' Reliable, and sailed with it across the seven-and-a-half seas in his vessel, the S.S. Salty.
When an unexpected run-in with a group of evil mercenaries leaves him marooned on Orca Isle with his ship stolen, Wayne starts doing what he does best: annihilating everyone responsible.
Equipped with a double barreled shotgun for an arm, countless explosives, and a bad attitude, you’ll have to go toe-to-toe with The Killer Whales, the most ruthless mercenaries in all the seven-and-a-half seas.
DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO EMBODY THE CAPTAIN? Let’s find out.

Mow down enemies with your double-barreled arm, rip enemies apart with devious chain-gun fingers, toss a bottle of the explosive Boom Brew, unleash the force of thunder from your palms, or PUNCH THEM ‘TIL THEY’RE PASTE!


Those Killer Whales bastards aren’t gonna slaughter themselves! It’s time to rob the rich to feed the badass.

Goated game, final boss kinda sucked though.
Amazing budget title with a nice bite sized campaign and a hoard mode you can sink your teeth into afterwards. pros: - Amazing anime inspired art style that reminds me of Lupin the III, Inspector Gadget, and I think a little bit of 70's / 80's gundam? I could honestly see this being some obscure 70's / 80's cartoon. - Amazingly well designed weapon sandbox. Every weapon stays relevant up until the end of the game. - Great sound track but... (See cons) - Great cheesy humor - Animated cutscenes?! In a GZDoom Game?! Whaaaa?! - Satisfying gameplay loop mixed with amazing level design Cons: - Voice acting for the MC is not great, and not in the entertaining cheesy way. - Mic quality for VAs in general is very inconsistent. You can literally hear noise cancelling artifacts in some of them. - Sound mixing leaves alot to be desired. There are times where you can't even understand what a character is saying because the dialogue is drowned out by action or music. - While the sound track is great and well made, it really doesn't fir the retro cartoony sailor / pirates aesthetic of the game. It tends to sound like it belongs in an entirely different game.

CAPTAIN WAYNE - VACATION DESPERATION is a hidden gem and I can easily recommend it to someone who enjoys a good boomer shooter. The standout feature of CAPTAIN WAYNE is the HUMOROUS TONE, and the EXCELLENT CUTSCENES sprinkled throughout the campaign. This game is genuinely funny throughout its duration, which I can't say for almost any other game. The campaign is kinda short but densely packed with fun and diverse levels, and sandwiched by amazing cutscenes. The weapon roster is creative and fun, and I really like the enemy roster for the most part too. There is a really cool KICK MECHANIC which shoots you forward at great speeds. The game utilizes this kick within combat itself, and as a tool for platforming, and I found it to be super fun. There is a good amount of PLATFORMING in this game but it was never frustrating to me, and it helps pace out the levels. There's also a horde mode available and I think it's alright. It's a fun supplemental game mode but is pretty tedious if you are trying to go for all the achievements. CAPTAIN WAYNE is only $10 full price, and it goes on sale often for way less and I can easily recommend it at those prices. This game rules and is very underappreciated!
There are a lot of thought I could write about the mechanics of this game, how it manages to avoid the common pitfalls in boomer shooters of having to spend more time thumping walls for health and bullets then actually kicking ass... But like how Captain wayne says "♥♥♥♥ you" to the resource economy, I say ♥♥♥♥ you to all that "Thinking man" ♥♥♥♥! You shoot gun, and if gun don't work, you shoot more gun! Captain Wayne makes duke nukem seem like a little ♥♥♥♥♥ that has to cry to mommy. Captain Wayne puts the violence into "Cartoon Violence"!
The whole game is crunchy as hell and REAKS of newgrounds. I love it.
This game flew under the radar for most people, but every minute is packed with addictive gameplay inspired from Serious Sam to modern DOOM that is easily worth the $10.
