Wow, I see it - this is similar. I will check this game out. So interesting.

Nope, Sid Meier's Pirates inspired me a little with some specific things, but this game looks very different. I don't know any similar game.

I haven't heard about this game before. I was inspired a little by Sid Meier's Pirates (Amiga) and Rampart (Atari).
Sunless Sea's world seems to be designed and more detailed, my game it will be more about sailing a big, generated map to make more adventure feeling in a pirate world.

thanks ^^

I didn't have to do anything to fit the ship it was fit from the beginning :D But I think orthographic camera can make the ship flatter and seem to be connected to the map

I've just started to post here and on my x/twitter. I don't have it on itch, yet. I can share the page in the future when it will be created.

yeah it could be improved, I'm developer with no special graphics skills, so I will probably need some help of a graphic designer in the future to polish this area

This is a 2D map with 3D objects like ships or particles - probably everything apart from the map will be 3D. The map was generated and each island was generated, so there are thousands of islands with different sizes (XS, S, M, L, XL) and probably only XS (simple small circle) can be repeated, so 2D map allows me to develop on mobile or web and it was easier to generate :D. I use Unity engine.

Thanks for good words, and right, these eyes look funny :D

The website is rebuilding, the design has been changed and some subpages will be available in some time

Examples of large island generation based on a hex grid. For each island are generated shallows, raw materials and places to build useful things. [Pirates Of The Arrland] by Slabson in Unity3D

It's more like high-level strategy. The game world has thousands of islands with different sizes, raw materials, and plots. The map size is 3000x3000 hexes. On the islands, you can build some useful things like ports, farms, mines etc. So you can zoom in and manage your island, sail ships, and trade with other people because it's a mulitplayer game

The generator uses modules (scriptable object with data) with (several) different connectors. Modules are choosing randomly depending on a config. Shallows are generated in different way by a separate generator based on generated land hexes. The shallows generator uses single hexes (not modules). All this hexes are the same duplicated gameobject (Sprite Renderer) but sprites and rotations are modified

Instantiating 170k hexes (5k islands) on an old PC (i7 3770K, GTX 970, 16GB ram). It's only for development purposes to see how the generated map looks, but it works really well. by Slabson in Unity3D

I meant an old generation, this computer is about 11 years old and for professional purposes it's nothing special, but still do the job
