About Be a pirate
At first glance, the goal is quite simple: to run from door to door, but not everything is so easy. Along the way, you need to collect all the coins, sometimes they are hidden and you need to find them, solving riddles and completing tasks, while your time is limited, and enemies lie in wait for you at every step - other ruthless pirates, cannons, whales eating bombs, live cucumbers. Also, you can complete additional tasks by finishing off all the enemies on the map with your bombs to earn more stars per level. The platformer game is made in pixel art with a side view.
It leans fully into arcade, so if that's your thing, it delivers. It's tuned to load fast and play smoothly whether you've got five minutes or an hour.
If you want to do well, keep this in mind: Talk to every NPC at least once — quests often hide in conversation, not on the map. Backtrack after you gain a new ability; earlier areas usually hide things you couldn't reach.
