Okay, I was extremely patient with this game.. and gave it over 30 damn minutes of my time...
..and it failed to produce even 1 ounce of excitement or intrigue or curiosity.
THIS GAME FAILED TO DO ANYTHING EXCEPT MAKE ME YAWN AND WANT TO GO HIBERNATE FOR A MONTH.

$20 USD asking price for this lazy boring trash where the developer can't even be bothered to make a boat engine cost more than screws? Where everything costs 100 gold?
Like I said in my video review, the only thing good about this game is the water of the ocean. That looks pretty good, but that's just an asset which this developer can take no credit for.
Just say "NO". Give your money to a street hooker and at least you might get a smile, but this.. Hell naw!!
NOT RECOMMENDED. My Score: A dismal 1 out of 10. And that's only cuz the sea water asset.

The game is so basic. You just run around like roblox tycoons steping on buttons and clicking here and there. the boat you build goes underwater as your piloting it, and you have no avatar. Just poor

I enjoy playing this game very much. It helps me to relax my mind , together with experience building and sailing boats. I also have learned a lot from this game.
However, at 4k resolution screen, the text size with white color is kinda small to read and recognize.
Thank you, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

A very good start to this building and boating story. I played through the first missions in about 5 hours. No bugs or any problems found so far.
The boats react well to the waves. This is the best boat sim I have yet seen as far as the movement of the boat over the water. There are what looks to be 3-4 meter seas and it looks very nice.
You buy materials and build boats in your own shipyard, piece by piece. The story integrates with the boat building and gives missions with each new boat. It all works well and there are a few unused buttons for features that will be introduced.
There seems to be a lot planned for the game. There is an extensive trading system already in place with traders on most of the islands. After finishing all the missions, you have enough coins to build your own boat, then go out and make trading runs. Earn enough coins to build a fleet.
This one has the potential to become like a Yacht Life simulator, which would be awesome

I would love a tycoon style game about building boats but this game is not ready to go.
Even if the resolution were fixed, the game is definitely not worth the $24 price tag.
I am sure someone put a lot of effort into this and truly do wish the dev the best of luck.
My advice is to lower the price, fix the resolution, and improve the moment to moment gameplay.
Potentially doing a simple quest log to indicate what we need to buy, instead of the current nightmare system.
