I love the mixture of education and entertainment in this! I love the art style and each character has such a clear voice and personality, and the ‘camera’ work is a lot of fun! I am excited to see where this is going! Here’s hoping for some good Moroccan tea!
Im new at the visual novels things, but this,is just amazin, perfect, like, i have changed what i say in this comment like 4 times cuz idk what say, in not so many words, is amazing, beautiful art, good characters, but what i can do now is wait for the update
Well, I'm glad we could be a good introduction! And I really appreciate that you took the time to say it. It really means a lot to know that people are out there and actually enjoying what we do! Next update isn't too far away either, so thankfully the wait isn't too long. :D
This visual novel is one of, if not the highest quality visual novel I've ever had the pleasure of playing. Everything seems to be specifically tailored towards bringing about an engaging, believable world with many fun and interesting characters to interact with. I like the added touches of realism to what it would've been like on a real ship and the techniques of navigating the vastness of the open sea. Not only is there an entertainment factor but also an educational one.
I hope the best for the team and look forward to seeing future progress on this visual novel and perhaps future VNs if we're so lucky!
Thank you so much! Yeah, while we're not exactly in the business of being historians or anything like that. So there are most certainly things that are wrong, or just changed for the sake not messing up the vibe of the story too much. But yeh, I always loved it when there were little bits and pieces in media that had me learn a little bit, so we try to repeat that here! :D
And yep, you'll certainly see that, progress has been steady and we haven't yet missed our 2 month schedule once. So we're steadily trucking on with this baby!
I played every second with rapt attention, even anxiety when things got... tense. Didn't find a single adult scene and I'm not at all disappointed in the least. I already can't wait to play through again and again.
I'll delete your post since it doesn't actually spoiler it. But spoiler answer is still below.
Thank you first of all, and no, she isn't. I think it could have been interesting to play around with the understanding of it during that time, but no, not what we're going for. It's just that women were not allowed to work on ships, so she has to make do somehow.
Nope. Down the line we'll probably just unlock all of them (or maybe character specific ones) when someone finishes a playthrough. It's just that we don't have any endings in the game so far. And keeping a guide updated just would take away too much time that we could use for actual development.
It is, but it's by far the trickiest to get to. We'll probably adjust requirements down the line at some point, but also as mentioned elsewhere, we'll likely have the CGs just unlock when finishing the game, once we have actual endings. It's a work in progress after all, so it still needs some refinement in places of course. But priority for now is first getting the story in and all that, then we can worry about these other things.
is wolf' second cg available/ out at the moment been trying to get it im really struggling but other than that im really enjoying the game great story and the art is amazing!
Fucking magnificent, music, art, story, everything. Much love and respect to all those working on this masterpiece, dare I say It's inspired me to make something of the quality someday. :)
Hi , i just starte to play this game its looks really cool but im very confused how to take a character route corectly. i dont know in wich one i am. i havent played much but it still confuses me a bit.
Hey hey, there aren't routes in that sense. You just pick which characters you want to spend time with, pick dialogue decisions and such and that will influence options with the different characters as you go along.
I just always loved sailing themes and some of the characters existed before the game already and played with those themes. So I wanted to provide them with a proper world that people can interact with and experience because i never really had the chance to before.
Yeah, totally get it. We usually add around 20k+ words per update. Just with the structure the game has and the choices involved it means that not every route is always getting a big chunk added to it. But in the end, the game is naturally being made to work as a fully finished product in the future.
Usually I recommend playing every other update. That's a pretty good rhythm to have a decent amount of new stuff added to most options.
Hey, I just played your game and reached the current end of the story. I have to give you props—this is probably one of my favorite games, if not my absolute favorite, that I’ve come across on itch.io. For me, this really hit it out of the park, and I absolutely can't wait to see what comes next. From the beautiful and amazing art style (which I love) to the great story, I’d recommend this to anyone looking for a fantastic visual novel. 11/10!
I've been reading this for about an hour or two now and I have to say the animations and the chemistry between the characters on board is immaculate! And the detailed artstyle has really grabbed me! I can't wait to progress further with this! :3
I have basically devoured my way through it xd I read through all the things I could figure out how to find, I have to say I'm very impressed with it as a whole and caaaan't wait for more :3 especially for more of Julian and Nomax
I was in bed with Nomax within the first like 25 minutes of playing xD. Giving African Wild Dogs a bad name here as he was ridiculously easy to seduce, truly scandalous.
Jokes aside, I cant seem to stop playing this game. I definitely haven't played anything like it before being into more action based games but seeing some of the art on E6 I decided I'd give it a shot. I find myself constantly telling myself "I'll hop off now" only to keep going to see where the story is heading.
With a bandaged up finger from a slight mishap with a kitchen knife its also perfect as I require very few keys to play it and even when I can use WASD again I can't see myself putting it down, unless I'm waiting for new updates. Roll on Morocco!
Will any of the artwork be made into prints out of interest? I've picked up a few of your prints at conventions (whatever makes its way over to the UK) and some of these gallery photos would be really nice to add to the collection!
Hah, happy that you're enjoying it and hopefully will be enjoying plenty updates to come! Thank you.
As for the prints, yeah probably at some point some will make it. It just feels weird tbh, since they're not really made for print. So it'll be a case of seeing which ones i feel even work fine and would print well.
I’ve still got plenty to work through on v16. Haven’t even met Perce yet. Gotta catch up before the next update is released xD.
That’s understandable. Hopefully see if I can grab some more of your prints at the upcoming CFz con in the UK. The collection grows so it does. Keep up the great work, we appreciate it!
One playthrough was enough. The MC's experience was way too close to my own experience in the military. And I manage to think about my failure's enough unprompted.
I'm calling it, I don't believe the last of Wolf's words even a little. It reads to me like some sort of fear of attachment, maybe he lost his old band in some violent manner and never wants to relive that, or maybe they betrayed him and he doesn't want to trust anyone despite his feelings. Or maybe he wants to keep the MC at a distance because that sailor job is just temporary for him (or maybe some means to some other end) and he doesn't want to rope anyone into whatever dangerous lifestyle that he has. Idk, I find him so interesting. Open up you damned Wolf, if you are a pirate or something I'll be totally fine with it.
So far, I can tell that Sam is going to be a fan favorite character (mine included). The twist is certainly not going to be everyone's tastes, as a lot of folk that play furry VNs like men I've found, but as someone who loves characters like Sam it is a breath of fresh air. Eager to see her story further, even if she is not the twink we thought her to be (if that is an okay thing to say? Apologies if so.)
Kinda sad about Samuel, I really liked him and was really invested in his history, guess there are more characters. I just want to say maybe some kind of warning for the people that get attached easily like me to no get sad
Ah thank you very much! Was honestly pretty scared about that aspect, since reactions can be pretty strong. But that sounds like we did a good job then. :) I'm very proud to hear, thank you!
Y'know, while reading I subconsciously gave Sam the voice of James Kidd from AC4. I didn't really know why, just the vibes I guess. But after getting deeper into the story, it turns out I was spot-fucking-on, good shit.
So far, I've only settled on voices for some of other characters.
Arthur is Haytham Kenway
Wolf is Edward Teach (Blackbeard)
Torres is Julien Du Casse
Konrad has a basic Khajiit voice
Rajeeyah has the voice of Dr. Amari from Fo4
Other than that, most of the other crew have the voices of the generic British soldiers/sailors from the few AC games that featured them.
Lo digo porque si bien no estoy en contra de este tipo de juesgos gay.... cada vez que encuentro un juego con esta calidad de dibujo y esfuerzo... aparecen mujeres pero solo te puedes coger a los hombres.... y ya me esta empezando a dar jaqueca esa vaina. (Perdon si ofendí a alguin, de verdad)
No es español, así que uso un traductor y cruzo los dedos. Sí, las mujeres van a ser los personajes principales de la relación, sin embargo no del todo en este momento. Simplemente no está allí todavía en lo que respecta a la historia.
Aunque eso de que decis es cierto para la mayoria de las Furry VN's, aquí hay opciones de rutas de mujeres, pss, hay un miembro de la tripulación que es una mujer en secreto ;)
I find myself thinking about this Vn from time to time, I'm not a native speaker so all this nautical terms I've never heard before got me intrigued, I've been familiar with english for years now and I was so surprised to not be able to read easily through all this new (new for me at least) sea slangs and parts of a ship etc, it made me pay attention to the dialogue and made me feel like when I was younger and didn't knew all the common words of the english language. Like I was learning about all this stuff for the first time like the protagonist.
It made me realize that maybe it's time to learn a new language, because I really liked this feeling and I wanted to thank you for that.
Hi Hi! I really love your game but i can´t seem to get the CG from wolf x.x Julians wins everytime on the 2nd bet with a 5 x.x Would you like to enlighten me? qwq
The game just doesn't run on my PC? I have the latest windows, it's definitely not a graphics issue, but as soon as I open the .exe file it pulls up a black window that immediately closes again. Is there anything you're supposed to do upon downloading it? I had the same issue with 12 and thought 13 would fix it.
Hmmm, that's rather odd. Difficult for me to say what it might be, but upon startup Renpy does save a log.txt file (same folder where the .exe is), which might give some clues to what is causing it.
The log didn't prove much help, but turns out it was a graphics driver issue after all, my bad. It opens fine on my old laptop. I checked nvidia to find the driver I had was from 2023 and it opens for me now after getting the latest
Look, could I go ahead and disallow certain names? Probably. Will I do so, and stop you all from goofing around and nameing yourself Poopy Poopy Stinky Butt? Hell no! :D
It's connected to both, the earlier Nomax scene, and the Julian anatomy lesson. Both of them are prerequesites, and then during it Julian should ask you about Nomax. One of those choices (can't remember exactly which one it was from memory) and then pick leave the ship.
If all else fails there are cheat codes available in any of the patreon/subscribestar tiers. The 2,5 and 10$ tiers have got a free trial period, so you can absolutely just dip in for a few days for the cheat and bail once the trial comes to an end.
Hi, I would like to ask and here about updates here it is written, on September 1 update will get those who supported the game financially here on Itch Io?
Ty so much!, i wanna ty for all your hard work, i enjoy the game a lot, beatiful art and love the characters. I always happy when a new update comes out.

Can't wait for the next update:3 need more content for my boy wolf lmao

this is BEAUTIFUL. Everything! Story, characters... This is incredible. I hope this VN gets longer.
Thank you :D Yeah we're doing our best to make sure exactly that happens!
I played every second with rapt attention, even anxiety when things got... tense. Didn't find a single adult scene and I'm not at all disappointed in the least. I already can't wait to play through again and again.
Well I'm very glad that you've enjoyed your time with it! Thank you for giving it a try.
I'll delete your post since it doesn't actually spoiler it. But spoiler answer is still below.

Is there any kind of CG guide (official or non-official) yet? I'm struggling to figure out the requirements for Julian's second CG, personally.
Nope. Down the line we'll probably just unlock all of them (or maybe character specific ones) when someone finishes a playthrough. It's just that we don't have any endings in the game so far.
And keeping a guide updated just would take away too much time that we could use for actual development.
Understandable!
Is the nomax bj scene even in the game? Lol
It is, but it's by far the trickiest to get to. We'll probably adjust requirements down the line at some point, but also as mentioned elsewhere, we'll likely have the CGs just unlock when finishing the game, once we have actual endings.
It's a work in progress after all, so it still needs some refinement in places of course. But priority for now is first getting the story in and all that, then we can worry about these other things.
How do I get it? I'm lost
The spoiler section in the Conway discord probably has someone explain it in the past.
is wolf' second cg available/ out at the moment been trying to get it im really struggling but other than that im really enjoying the game great story and the art is amazing!
Thank you very much!
As far as I know every locked cg you see in the gallery is in the game,nomax is just adding them as he makes them
yeah i got it idk how but i did aha ty for the help tho <3
Fucking magnificent, music, art, story, everything. Much love and respect to all those working on this masterpiece, dare I say It's inspired me to make something of the quality someday. :)
Aw why thank you very much! Yeah, man, fingers crossed for it. The world can always need more furry art! So I hope that you'll do someday :)
This game is fire! Nice story, and the art is amazing. If people come here in the comments to see if they should play—guys, do it! It's great.
U still reading
-My granny called, she said, Travvy, you work too hard I'm worried you forget about me
BALL BALL BALL
Hi , i just starte to play this game its looks really cool but im very confused how to take a character route corectly. i dont know in wich one i am.
i havent played much but it still confuses me a bit.
Hey hey, there aren't routes in that sense. You just pick which characters you want to spend time with, pick dialogue decisions and such and that will influence options with the different characters as you go along.
Is there still a way to like get in a realationship with these characters then like if you choose to spend more time with certain characters?
Yep yep!
very slay thank you very much.♡
Keep up the great work and amazing art. ♡
And thank you :)
Can't tell you how long its been since the last time I was drawn into a VN like this, I cannot wait to see more!
Aw thank you very much! Yeah very excited for the next section, so hopefully you'll enjoy your time as we work through it :)
Where'd u get the inspiration for this game?
I just always loved sailing themes and some of the characters existed before the game already and played with those themes. So I wanted to provide them with a proper world that people can interact with and experience because i never really had the chance to before.
Samuel just reminds me so much of james kid from assassins creed black flag lol
This game made me replay assassins creed black flag lol
How many scenes does Samuel have?
Depends on what you mean by it exactly. The game's got a gallery though, so all the potential Art scenes are listed there.
is her route finished or is it still being worked on?
All routes are still being worked on. We're working simultaneously on all of them, so they're all roughly at the same point.
I can't tell what it is, but I always like it even if some updates could contain more but if you like it, you do get impatient.
Yeah, totally get it. We usually add around 20k+ words per update. Just with the structure the game has and the choices involved it means that not every route is always getting a big chunk added to it. But in the end, the game is naturally being made to work as a fully finished product in the future.

We shall make sure to at least try to keep that level up!
I've been reading this for about an hour or two now and I have to say the animations and the chemistry between the characters on board is immaculate! And the detailed artstyle has really grabbed me! I can't wait to progress further with this! :3

Damn, managed to get booted off the ship without managing to bed anyone. Truly a playthrough for the ages.
Appreciated the attention to detail. Really felt authentic to the age of sail.
Hah, thank you. Sometimes that's just how it goes. You'll get there in time!
Unlikely to happen lmao
One playthrough was enough. The MC's experience was way too close to my own experience in the military. And I manage to think about my failure's enough unprompted.

Ah thank you very much! Was honestly pretty scared about that aspect, since reactions can be pretty strong. But that sounds like we did a good job then. :) I'm very proud to hear, thank you!
Ah very happy to hear that :) Thank you so so much. And the translator works without issues. They've come a long way nowadays! :D
as someone who is Bi, I see this as an absolute win! so don't worry so much about people having strong reactions lol

..... que especie de animal es el personaje que encarnamos?

El juego lo voy a provar hoy y queria hacer una pregunta.... ¿hay mujeres con las que pueda tener una relacion romantica o solo con los hombres?
I find myself thinking about this Vn from time to time, I'm not a native speaker so all this nautical terms I've never heard before got me intrigued, I've been familiar with english for years now and I was so surprised to not be able to read easily through all this new (new for me at least) sea slangs and parts of a ship etc, it made me pay attention to the dialogue and made me feel like when I was younger and didn't knew all the common words of the english language.

It made me realize that maybe it's time to learn a new language, because I really liked this feeling and I wanted to thank you for that.
Ah that is really sweet! Yeah it is a tricky balance to find between using them, but also not using them so much that it becomes too alien-sounding.
It's lovely though that it sparked that idea for you. Learning another language, even if not to being fully fluent, is always worthwhile and good fun.
Hi Hi! I really love your game but i can´t seem to get the CG from wolf x.x Julians wins everytime on the 2nd bet with a 5 x.x Would you like to enlighten me? qwq
Hey hey, I assume you're the person who poked their head into the discord. :D
were you able to get it
yes, i was able to get it
The game just doesn't run on my PC? I have the latest windows, it's definitely not a graphics issue, but as soon as I open the .exe file it pulls up a black window that immediately closes again. Is there anything you're supposed to do upon downloading it? I had the same issue with 12 and thought 13 would fix it.

Takeaway: check your graphics drivers
Ah awesome, happy to hear that it works :)
Thank you very much! I do hope you'll enjoy your time with it. :)
Ah thank you very much. I'm very happy that you enjoy it and yeah, excited to see you around for future updates. :D
Arthur is a romance option right?
Yes, he is.Just different speeds for different characters basically!
How do you get the second slide for the first set of Samuel photos?
+What is your name young man?
-Uh... it's...
-*looks at the paper he's holding* Arthur Hudson sir! yes! that's 100% my real name!
Look, could I go ahead and disallow certain names? Probably.
Will I do so, and stop you all from goofing around and nameing yourself Poopy Poopy Stinky Butt? Hell no! :D
Nah please don't disable it, it's more fun to think Arthur Is mad at himself and he confuses the MC for his own name because of it :3
I need tutorial for nomax's second scene!!! Idk what I'm doing wrong!!!!
Spoilerinos for those that want to avoid them
It's connected to both, the earlier Nomax scene, and the Julian anatomy lesson. Both of them are prerequesites, and then during it Julian should ask you about Nomax. One of those choices (can't remember exactly which one it was from memory) and then pick leave the ship.
Thx!!!!!! I freaking get it!!!!!!
I NEED AN ADULT!!!! (I LIED THAT I GET IT)
If all else fails there are cheat codes available in any of the patreon/subscribestar tiers. The 2,5 and 10$ tiers have got a free trial period, so you can absolutely just dip in for a few days for the cheat and bail once the trial comes to an end.
Hi, I would like to ask and here about updates here it is written, on September 1 update will get those who supported the game financially here on Itch Io?
Hey hey, The early updates are only for patreon and subscribribestar supporters. There'll be a download links available on those sites to supporters.
The optional itch.io tip is just that, a tip if people want to provide it and will not provide further perks.
When i try to download the apk, i get a bin file instead, what do i do?
Hmmm, I assume you're downloading from your phone. Try to set the browser to display the site in desktop mode.
Should be an option in the settings on the top right, and it's called something like "Desktop Site".
Ty so much!, i wanna ty for all your hard work, i enjoy the game a lot, beatiful art and love the characters. I always happy when a new update comes out.
