In Shipwright you take the role of captain of a ship (or rowing boat to begin with, everyone starts somewhere). Your ship is under constant attack from pirates who want to take all your loot, so make sure you hire enough musketeers to fend them off. As you progress and the days get more intense, you can use your gold to purchase more crew members and eventually a bigger ship!
Shipwright was made in 2016 along with a small team as part of a 48 hour game jam. Lots of features were planned that weren't possible within the timeframe, including more types of crew members and full ship customisation. Each crew member would also have individual stats which could be levelled up overtime, as well as their own needs. For example, overtime crew may get tired and need to rest. Crew would also need to eat, and so for large crews a chef may need to be hired to keep up with the food demand.
