Hello everyone,

The Lost Galleon is an adventure game inspired by classic adventure games like Monkey Island
(seriously... in addition to pirates the game already has island explorations, monkeys and bananas ;-))
It was originally developed during Global Game Jam 2021 and it's further developed post jam
with more story and puzzles, additional locations, etc...

The protagonist seek to find the fate of his grandparent and the famous galleon of which he was the captain.


You can try the current version here (both web and desktop versions are available)
Constructive feedback is greatly appreciated!

Heh, while I wasn't stunned by the presentation choice (not a fan of sepia tones) I gave it a go and it was kinda fun anyway (cute music).

However, I feel the environments need a little more variety as each island looked practically the same as the others.

Also I believe I found a bug where if you're in the process of transitioning from 1 screen to another, and click again in the same area, it'll jump you forward to the following screen as if your character had walked that far. (Unless you intended this as a kind of fast-travel solution which is fair - figured I should tell you anyway )

I checked it out and enjoyed it. I would agree that more variety at the docks area would be helpful since all 3 islands are basically identical at that point. Personally, I don't mind the sepia tones. I generally liked the art direction as well. Overall, the world is charming.

It's a good start, and if you added more of a story to it and a bit more puzzle solving, I think I'd be a fan.

Good luck with the project!

Thanks you for trying our game
True, the environment do need more variety.
Thankfully the graphics are quite modular so it's easy to add variety without much trouble.
The game does "teleport" the player with double click (both for hotspots and exits).
It's practically a mandatory feature of modern adventure games especially for location exits ;-)

Thanks you for trying our game.
More story updates including proper dialogs and a completely new area are coming to the game.
We just wanted to put first some engine updates like the much improved text (especially compared to the original jam version) and improved controls before updating the game content.
