Pixel Piracy has just received a Christmas patch which finally brings Steam achievements into the game, as well as some extra in-game content. In addition, Quadro Delta has started to release a few teasers for their upcoming game which clearly involves space pirates.
WGTC:
Making and drawing comparisons between games is a double-edged sword when it comes to reviews, in my eye at least. On one hand, comparing and contrasting is one of the more effective tools that one can use to inform and get one’s point across, and when it comes to games, there are plenty of differences and similarities among titles which helps to facilitate this style of writing.
XBLA:
Pixel Piracy is an open-world retro pirate sim. That phrase alone will make Pixel Piracy an instant buy for many. It’s the type of game we dream of: adventuring, plundering, looting, training up a crew of pirates, crafting the best damn pirate ship on the seven seas. To top it off, press releases have name dropped Terraria developers as being part of the project. This was going to be epic. I could hardly wait. Ah, but avast me hearties, epic this is not. Pirates, ye be warned.
ReLogic, the team that brought us hit pixel exploration game Terraria, have now taken to the seas to bring Pixel Piracy. Avast, ye scurvy dogs.
