Early Access Review
This is a really enjoyable game! Made a successful cargo run and gained about 300% confidence - and some cheese - before sailing through a storm and realising that I'm a small, small foolish man at the mercy of every pond ripple I encounter.

As someone who has never sailed before, I was happy to find it wasn't as hard to learn as I thought it would be. If you're unsure as to whether or not you want this game cause you don't want to spend hours learning how to sail, I would say go for it! It doesn't take very long to get the basics down, and it's a very gratifying feeling being so connected with your ship, and using your new skills to bring a ♥♥♥♥-ton of booze all over the budget Caribbean.

Surprisingly, I haven't run into any bugs so far. Given that I've only played this game for a couple hours and launched it once, there could very well be bugs I haven't encountered yet, but it felt very reliable for a game this early in development.

Some things I hope to see in the future are bigger and busier ports/cities with more NPC's that can hopefully move around and be interacted with, and busier oceans as well. Hopefully a more visually pleasing HUD is implemented soon, but I'm not complaining as a minimalistic UI is pretty standard for very early access.

All in all, awesome piece of code with a lot of potential. I'm sure I will be sinking many, many hours into this game in the future. Keep up the good work!
