if youre playing this, you might like "From The Depths", where you can build boats in a similar way, but in a proper campaign with real boat physics

[@An_M4A3]

Yeah, I hope that he plays it. Maybe it's too complex for him to make one video, but I don't know

[@nicholassmith8779]

It would be cool but it does have a steep learning curve

Real History Dork here, just dropping in to say: Pirate times were glass window times. And a big three-mast sailing ship like this likely would have glass windows in the stern. (Of course, that's not where the swords are - they seem to be sticking out of the gunports.)

[@kholdanstaalstorm6881]

You could say that the Pirates of the Caribbean movies was historically accurate on having the aft windows, because excluding the fantasy themes the movies are sorta set in the right time period.

Ships truly showcase engineering! Something so heavy floating on water due to density, truly a masterpiece

[@Drnken229]

The sheer amount of air mattresses they used in the mid to late 1700 to early 1800 is crazy to make things like HMS Victory float

[@mihailmilev9909]

Right

[@mihailmilev9909]

[@dylandepetro4187]

@@Drnken229air mattresses? What you smoking? You not know how a ship works? A ship floats because of this thing call buoyancy. When something is less dense than the liquid surrounding it, it will float. Also, a wooden ship is far easier to make float than a metal one is. Density of water is 62.4 lb/ft3. Density of oak wood (the wood HMS Victory was made out of) varies between 0.6 to 0.9 lb/ft3. Thus why it floats on water. I would go into more detail, however, I would rather not write a 15 paragraph response, because then I would be here all night typing.

That's like vampire survivors but with boats. Nice!

[@JamesThebold]

True

[@droppedpasta]

9:40 TIL glass wasn’t invented until after the 18th century. You’re such an architect sometimes, Matt

[@Stolens87]

but windows were invented a lot earlier.

[@shaylethorne2387]

Make sure to put similar perks next to each other. They get buffed by how many connections are the same perk.

[@Ro99]

0:04 the stereotypical ‘pirate’ accent is a West Country (English) accent -because this is where a lot of them were historically from (I think).- This is also an accent associated with farmers but also has other (often negative) stereotypes such as people who possess this accent being simple, uneducated but friendly (i don’t think it’s necessarily the same reasons but Hagrid from Harry Potter has a West Country accent). The association between this accent and its stereotypes may be why you felt it sounded a bit farmer at the end. Please don’t quote me on this because this isn’t a factual essay it’s mostly my interpretation.

[@stylesrj]

I knew it! Pirates are just farmers who have taken to the sea. "Ooh-arr!" "Yarr!"

[@Dark_Depresion]

Actually the whole "pirate accent" thing comes from the movies. It just happened to be the accent and acting choices of some of the early pirate actors. In reality pirates spoke a very wide range of accents, depending on their origin, and many (not to say, probably most) pirates didn't speak english at all, or only to a minor degree as a second language, again depending on their origin and life story.

[@Santisima_Trinidad]

​@@Dark_Depresiona lot of carribean pirates would have spoken Spanish, as a lot of those territories were originally Spanish colonies, although English was another popular language due to the Privateers of both England and the United states working in those waters (when those nations weren't being friendly with the other people who had ships in the area). Privateers being pirates with a few easily burnable documents saying they are employed by a crown and a general rule about not attacking ships flying a particular flag. In terms of accents, mainly just stuff from port cities for obvious reasons, rarely farmers, but also a lot of African and general PoC ones, as escaped slaves would quite often join pirate crews due to the freedom they offered, and the standard "raid the merchant ship" tactic often encountering ones which had slaves as the cargo, who could then be offered the chance to join up as most pirates weren't particularly cool with the whole chaining people up and selling them at reputable markets thing. Then you get into the whole Asian piracy thing, where there were Japanese ones, Chinese ones, Korean ones, you'd get people from the Philippines, lot of them. And those pirate fleets could be large, as you didn't even need

[@Ro99]

@@Dark_Depresion oh right. That would make sense.

[@illadiel6049]

That's because the "pirate accent" origin in film was a West Country actor just doing his native accent for the movie

[@steffanshurkin1123]

These tiny games are where it's at nowadays. Thanks for showcasing them!

[@justdirt]

This game is honestly super creative. A lot of these types of games just copy vampire survivors entirely, but I love the upgrade system in this.

[@laquaoctopus]

Omg there's an octopus on the chest Greatest game of the decade

[@Jefftherebel-t8t]

9:41 fun fact pirate ships did indeed have glass windows

[@brigidtheirish]

I think they were usually called portholes, though.

[@Jefftherebel-t8t]

@@brigidtheirish that's the technical term for them yes. They also had cannon hatches.

[@Minorskillissue]

Cool game looking forward for you playing this or Costa Verde transport department again! But as long as you don't become an architect I won't mind.

[@Tom_Conan]

Hey mate great vid please play this game again and do a "message in a bottle" rce song please who else wants this? 😊

[@Salivagant]

Kinda reminds me of vampire survivors

[@juststanding8228]

if all of those cannons at thumbnail fire at one the whole ship will move by a good meter or two in the other direction

[@FlamingMonocle]

This game is reminiscent of the minigame from Monkey Island 3 where you'd upgrade your cannons and take on meaner pirates. I loved it.

[@klafsen]

17:32 "I give you my big red heart"

[@cok666joey]

This is basically Vampire Survivors with a Pirate skin

[@muibadah]

I agree, and that was a good basic game too. Simple at first, but gets intense the longer the run.

[@anarqee]

its way worse imo.

[@Santisima_Trinidad]

I mean, not at all, this has completely different level progression (the artifacts placed in rigging with bonouses based on how they are placed together versus just 6 artifact slots which can be leveled up individually, 4 weapons which are significant things to be obtaining in a run versus 6 spell slots) fairly different weapons, and the whole raiding mechanic doesn't exist in survivors, but yes it is the same genre of reverse bullet hell, not that vampire survivors was the first of that type of game.

[@jacksonstarky8288]

This game should be called "Armada of One" 🙂

[@newgirlde]

People have started calling this genre "Bullet Heaven" because instead of dodging bullets you are shooting them.

[@joshmartin2744]

Not to mention that this doesn't even closely resemble "Bullet Hell". Bullet Hell is *not* about random bullet spam, it is about precision dodging of mass amounts of projectiles moving in predictable patterns.

[@woody7133]

Since RCE is getting into ships, maybe he should play "From The Depths"

[@BrettPaulsen-eg6wv]

Alway fun when he uploads makes my day better

[@halotitanmrkprimal0001]

Man, this is my time watching your video, and you're pretty awesome. I'm impressed with how you upgrade your ship. I imagine you playing space egineers, from the depths, and volcanoids

I think the wales/shark are an anti-campering mechanic to stop you from "circling around an island and farming infinitely"

[@michaelcallisto]

This really is just Vampire Survivors with pirates

[@MysteriousStranger50]

The pirate and farmer voices being similar isnt a coincidence, most pirates came from the Welsh, and had welsh accents. Wales was also a big farm industry and is where the modern "english farmer" voice originated form

Day eighty eight of asking Matt to add the Second Narrows Bridge, Ironworkers Memorial to the Wheel of Bridgetune It is a cantilevered truss bridge, carrying 6 lanes of traffic from Vancouver to North Vancouver in B.C. across the second narrowing of the Burrard Inlet. It's name comes from the fact that it collapsed twice during construction, which unalived 23 people in total (Hence the name, ironworkers memorial).

This reminds me of this great little iphone game like ten years ago that was very siilar but wihtout the skill tree, the trick is to get behind them so you can broad side and they can only hit you with one or two guns, slamming on the brakes was the key to turning faster.
