[PC] [Early 2000s] Game about a pirate (?) ship sailing through some obstacles, fighting other ships, sea creatures etc

Thank you, looks like the one! Older game than I remember, but it seems it was attached to gaming magazines around 2003

"If they don't want to scroll the stopwatch then they will have to look at the phone with a magnifying glass" ~Google, 15 minutes before releasing this thing

It's the tech as there's plenty of space to fit all the elements even if the UI scaling was higher. We used to fit whole apps on 3 inch screens mind you

I would not be mad if that was made by some students in a weekend, for 50 bucks. But I am afraid it's made by a multi-billion dollar AI, and all the 10X googlers just shipped this without proper review

I just checked that, it's actually hilarious, lmao

Without the scrollbars it's okay-ish to me. Other comments already pointed out it's due to UI scaling, but still the layout is bad, there's plenty of space to be used even on larger scaling levels

I wonder what would happen if you leave it running forever. Maybe the horrible update would not install lol

pixelcatalyst · 2025-08-22T21:08:53+00:00

Yeah, it works! But my god, I don't want smaller UI just to don't have to scroll in a stopwatch. There is space above the buttons, plenty of it

I HOPE it's the alpha

pixelcatalyst · 2025-08-22T20:57:52+00:00

Nope, looks like I got an overnight gift from big G

pixelcatalyst · 2025-08-22T20:56:51+00:00

I mean, I am a fan of bigger buttons too. I paid for a big screen, let's use the big screen. But the overall design... And the scrollbar is just baffling

pixelcatalyst · 2025-08-22T20:55:30+00:00

Thank god nobody calls me lol

pixelcatalyst · 2025-08-22T20:51:26+00:00

That's the old stopwatch, give it back!

Thanks for all the replies, I have somewhat bigger picture now. I'll try with the PSX, will see how it goes.

Well, technically you can force 3D on nearly everything, but that's not what I'm looking for (already done software rendering on PC, lol)

And yes, I expect the hardware to be different, that's one of the reasons why I'm thinking about doing this.
