The Caribbean Sail - Launch Trailer
Published on Jun 21, 2018
About
Set sail across the Atlantic with your best friend, food. Food will keep you alive and food will keep you well- you get food by throwing harpoons at fish and turtles. Then one day BAM! The RNG screws you over and throws a pirate ship at you and you're forced to fight and defend your food!
The next thing you know, Johnny Macguffin is dying from an infected battle wound and you're amputating his leg to save his life- then you realize everyone is starving because Marvin Buttercup ate all the food and you're out of harpoons, on a raft, 2,000 miles from land, and it's raining.
The story is yours and unique every playthrough!

V1.6.9 - Discord Rich Presence
15 APR @ 11:18PM - VICTORIAN CLAMBAKE
Another patch to delay obsolescence.
I finally added the Discord rich presence. *
Three achievements are new.
Did some bug fixing too.
Enjoy the new features with much effervescence!
* There were bugs with the Linux and Mac builds I ported,
so for Discord rich presence, only Windows is supported.

Fantasy Toggle Expansion - Progress Update
29 Aug @ 10:15pm - Victorian Clambake
We've come a long way but we've still got a long way to go.
If you're clueless about the Fantasy Toggle expansion, read this! https://steamcommunity.com/games/TCS/announcements/detail/1768130575204688104
If you've been paying attention to development, you'll know this expansion is taking longer than I first estimated. That's because Fantasy Toggle isn't as big as Route Planning was... it's twice as big. https://steamcommunity.com/games/TCS/announcements/detail/1666776116214568189
Feast your eyes on a few of the completed features!
Involuntary Diving!
Digging up other peoples retirement plans!
Stuff I haven't told you about! - and I'm not going to.
Twice as many new professions and vessels to unlock!
When will it be released?
January 31st - 2020 ...is when I want to open testing.
After two years of development, I have a high standard of quality for this final content update. The sheer amount of interconnected systems has made development particularly tricky. Making the entirety of Fantasy mode optional (hence the "Toggle") has been comparable to building a new game inside of a pre-existing game.
While a lot of progress has been made, my original estimate was simply unrealistic.
We learn, we move on.
Unfortunately the Jolly Riot demo won't be ready until at least mid 2020 because I'll be focused on finishing development of The Caribbean Sail. Progress is still being made and you should follow then wishlist Jolly Riot if you'd like to learn more about my next project!
