Pixel Piracy

2015 is a long time ago and the game feels very 2015. It is a cute & unique game tough and the developer is back to support it so will give a recommendation with the benefit of doubt. The game is buggy and in dire need of polish, but the difference 7-8 years of experience gives a developer is night and day. But if you buy it go into it with some patience, won't be perfect.

The dev is a bit of a clown. Was sharing his emotional issues in all of the update posts (which thankfully he's stopped) and continues to ban people from the discussion forums for seemingly no reason. While the game is indeed being updated again, he has been adding many rushed, ridiculous "features" that don't really add anything except in game hassle. None of these are fleshed out in the slightest, and seem to be just repeatedly piled on in the guise of 'content'.

The game was abandoned in 2016, suddenly dev returns in 2023 with a "full release" and a paid DLC valued on half price of a full game. ♥♥♥♥ you. @edit. Steam has marked this review as "Pre-Release review" because i did not run the game after fake ass release and added a description "This review may not accurately reflect the stare of released version". Well. I run the game, does it change anything about dev disappearing for at least 6 years, released half baked product with a DLC (that is a clicker apparently) and costs half of whatever dev is asking for the base game? There should be a place in prison for people like you.

Looking at the developer updates and activity tab, it seems like he is trying to scam the last remaining supporters out of their money with a ponzi-scheme. "Pixel Piracy Online" is in development, so this game is most likely dead. His other game: "IAH: INTERNET WAR" actually looked promising and like a polished/good game, but this game is a major dissapointment, it was fun when it first came out. Safe your money and beaware of the developer.

i am an eastern european and every pirate ship i fight is an unstolen 2011 ford focus

abandoned by a scummy scammy dev who tries to quick rich money grab

devs spilled coffee over their one dev pc that then accidentally published the game, and then they just said screw it, and let it stay like this.

Jesus,看看我看到了什么，扑街一万年的游戏居然更新了！ 既然这样，求个Chinese不过分吧。

In all honesty I am happy the dev is updating the game more and putting more content in it. But there's a lot more bugs than I encountered before he came back. I just got soft locked by going to a camp and getting mugged, paid the man off and it wouldn't get out of the screen and all the words were mashed together. I understand it's one single person doing it but before he came back it wasn't as buggy.
