Urban Pirate

This is a retro game, with basic 8-bit graphics, good music and easy to play. The important part of this game is the story mode. It have a lot of possibilities when you are playing, also you can upgrade your character while playing and it is divided by episodes and levels. If you like 8-bit games this is one of the best option on the store.

Could use a bit more work but probably worth a shot.

Tags: Tycoon&Simulator&Sim&City Additional Tags: Delete Local Content & Remove from Library TLDR: Low ambitions hotspot based ressource management survival as an 8bit hobo. Minigames are hard and poorly designed. RNG oriented. Fun for people who grew up with drug wars browser games and the like. In this one you go from hotspot to hotspot to either shoplift food, squat and socialize, tend the bar or buy and smoke weed. The sprites are basic but have some form of an art direction and the music is appropriate 8bit stuff. The game is kind of roguelike with permadeath and some of the minigames like escaping the investigator are not always well done as obstacles sort of pop in a bit too late and with random placement. You can unlock a couple of perks that reduce the amount of daily energy you need to spend at hotspot to perform activities. The main issue with the game, apart from the fact that it is a little bit hard to figure out on your own at first. Is that acquiring food is RNG related. Carries a permanent penalty for the level once failed, and escaping the consequences through the runner section is too difficult with obstacles popping into place last second and poor quality controls. There is not a whole lot of dialogue, the tone and flavor was there and audiovisually it was okay for a small indie game. Just disappointing that the only way to experience this is to die and retry and hope for just better random rolls.

Update: **The community I originally had the full review posted on no longer exists, so I have copied the important parts of that post here, deleting anything not needed for a Steam review.** Also, mod support was never added as the dev promised. And I still have no idea how this game has such a high positive rating of 72% when it is a garbage fire. The positive review REALLY make it sound like it is the most amazing thing you will come across and that's fishy. [b]TL;DR - [/b] Game is pure sh!te as it currently stands... do not waste even a single penny on it. It had potential with the idea but it isn't even worth getting it as a gift or being given it for free by someone... So many other better games on Steam to throw $7 at... ------ Urban Pirate is a PC game available on Steam by the indie developer BABY DUKA. It is a game packed to the brim full of nostalgia when retro-style games are currently a huge hit. So you would not be at fault for thinking that maybe this game was another retro-style that is that next hidden gem to be hitting it big any day, but that is not the case. For all its nostalgia inducing reminiscing, this game failed on several levels. As with any game, band, music, or product I review, I research and look stuff up about it so that I can get a better idea of the item, music, background, history, or any other number of ideas. So since I got the game a few days ago, I spent the weekend slowly glancing over its Steam page and other things within the community, so I could have a better understanding of the game before firing it up. I glanced at a few the handful of threads in the Urban Pirate Steam forum. The developer is active and talks to people that posts there; a few gamers posting bugs they find so that the developer can try to find these bugs to fix. It is always nice to see a developer who is active and talking with those that play the game. I found out while looking through the forum, that they are going to try to bring Steam Workshop support to this game to make modding possible, which is something to look forward to if you want to get this game.. You will notice a lack of images in the screen caps tab, and there is a good reason for this: you can’t screen cap it. At least you cannot screen cap it with the traditional Steam way that everyone else does to share their screen caps. for anyone that likes sharing screencaps of games they play, with friends or the public, sorry, isn’t happening. At least not until the developer figures out how to make the Steam screencap system work in their game. There are a few videos by one user in the video section of the Steam community. I sat and watched the first two, so I would know what to do when I got into the game. I am VERY glad I did this too, or else I would have been very frustrated You see, one the very first things I did when looking at the games Steam page the evening I got this game, was read the reviews. There are two types: those that praise the game quite highly and those that did not like it at all (and at least of couple of those gave good insight as to why, thankfully). So that set red flags off in my head, that there were two very big extremes for this game and no middle ground reviews. But I am an open-minded person, preferring to make my own impressions by trying it myself, when I can. For the last couple days, I sank almost 3 hours into Urban Pirate to be able to write this review. I wanted to close and uninstall this game within the first 10 minutes, but I held off, not wanting to make a knee-jerk reaction. I wanted so much to try to give this game as much a fair chance as I could. Afterall, I watched a couple the game play videos that are up on the Steam community and it reminded me a lot of a couple games, so gave me lots of warm fuzzies of the “good ole days”. The first biggest marks against this game is the lack of in-game options for things like game volume, resolution, key binding, and other things pretty much every game out there has on some level. I had to alt+tab ASAP to go into my actual PC volume settings to lower the game’s volume from where I have all my volumes set to a default of 50, all the way down to 2, and it was still a bit loud. Also, since it is an 8 bit retro-style soundtrack, it got heavily annoying fast and muted within minutes. When you actually get into the game play of the game, you will notice that you can use F4 to mute the game if you want and F5 to exit full screen mode. You should not have to get into ACTUAL game play to be able to do that with a game. I should not have to scramble to pull off my headphones and alt+tab to change the volume because it is way too loud. This game is not exactly alt+tab friendly either; it doesn’t hate alt+tab but it doesn’t like it either. When you finally get into playing the game, the controls are awkward and clunky. They chose to go with the actual direction keypad for moving around instead of the default a-s-w-d that most games use and since there is no way to rebind the keys, it was actually oddly off-putting as a gamer who is most comfortable with the a-s-w-d system. This game looked fun in the videos I’d watched but I couldn’t get into it. As I mentioned, I wanted to quit and uninstall within the first 10 minutes of game play. I painfully stuck it out for half an hour or so the first evening and almost 2.5 hours this morning. And… I just could not do it anymore. I got up to completing level three and I replayed the various levels I’d cleared to try to get the bonuses. I can only give this game about 1.5-2 stars just because I want to give the guy something for the effort he’s put in making a game on his own and for being active in the Steam forums. The workshop isn’t available yet, or else that would have bumped it up by half a star. The nostalgia bumped it up by half a star as well. So as I mentioned this game was heavy on the nostaglia and reminded me of a couple old school games. Some of you may remember the old DOS word game: Drugwars. Urban Pirate is basically if that game grew up, had a fling with SkiFree and had a child but settled down with Win 3.1 to live happily ever after and raise that child. There are a couple mini-games within the main game that have the similar scroll-down and avoid obstacles like SkiFree did. The art-style is very similar to SkiFree and other Win 3.1 games. This game could have done well… 20 years ago on Windows 3.1 or 3.2. I do wish I could give this game a much better rating, but if I were to go on my game play experience alone, the game would NOT fair well. The fact that the developer is active in the forum and this gave me a heavy bit of warm-fuzzy nostaglia while watching the videos is actually giving the game a boost.

Addictive, fun. Great mini games. Good vibes and great soundtrack worth it for that alone!. Highly Recommended! The game is challenging at first (I guess like being broke on the street) and you may end up hanging yourself a few times before you get the hang of it. The story and mini games are well worth it though so stick in there.

I think this is one of the best games I ever played in my life. It's inspiring, in some kind of way. This game is made by one guy I think, which name is amazing... Baby Duka... wft man, you're a genious! The OST is incredible, I listen to it often in my library... I mean I can't play the game all the time when I want to ear the shoplift theme....!! I don't want to make any spoilers, but... this is a game about chainging life, about chainging point of view... I think anyone should complete Sheep City once in a lifetime... at least. Give it a try... with a different mindset... and some weed, maybe. Have a nice time.
