Meet THE COWBOY
One of the key parts of Nautical Survival is Crew Members From fearless explorers to expert combatants, and even the adorable (yet vicious) Otter, each crew member brings a unique skillset that can shift the tides in your favor.
Today I'm highlighting a new Crew member that you can hire this open alpha - THE COWBOY! The cowboy is a true veteran of the seas, and features various promotions that provide to your damage output:
- Swashbuckler: +10% damage per unit the closer you are to the enemy (max +30%).
- Savvy: +30% maritime weapons damage.
- Bombardier: +20% Explosion Damage
- Vengeful: Up to +50% damage modifier the closer your current hull health is to 50%
If you wonder about those ability names or that hat - don't worry about it, they really are a cowboy.
More Alpha Features
I've listened to your feedback, so here are some new features that were implemented to improve your experience with the game:
- Level size increase: The level size is now larger, to allow for more exploration and less constraint.
- Weapon Rarities: Weapons are now assigned either Common, Rare or Epic, which affects their chance to appear in the shop.
- Boat Stats Chance: The chance to receive specific stats is now tied to the starting stats of the boat you're playing as. The higher it is, the higher the chance to receive it as an option when leveling up.
- Garage healing area Increase: The Garage healing area now very slightly increases for each upgrade.
- General UI improvements and Bug Fixes
7 boats, 11 crew members, 11 weapons, 15 enemies, 3 bosses, 5 buildings, 8 curses, and more!
The game is in the best shape it's ever been, and I've worked hard to make sure you have a great time during the alpha. I would love to get your thoughts and feedback on the game, so hop on our Discord to join the discussions!
Stay afloat,
