What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The single player campaign and skirmish modes are fully playable but...
1. Not all of the models, textures, and effects have been updated for PC yet so some graphics may be inconsistent while we work on remastering
2. There are additional gameplay features and modes that are not complete

We would like to get feedback from the community while we remaster and enhance the base game. Especially in regards to the multiplayer mode we are adding.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The planned early access period is approximately 8 months, depending on feedback from the community”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to make additional graphic enhancements and plan to add a 2 player mode and gamepad support.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Fully playable single player campaign and skirmish mode. Some of the graphics are inconsistent because they are still being upgraded.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We plan to raise the price when it leaves early access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We will be posting plans for gameplay tweaks and enhancements and would like to get feedback from the community on other improvements they would like to see.”

About This Game

Pirates! Showdown is a fast-paced game combining real-time strategy(RTS) and defense tactics.

Face off against the fearsome Red Hand privateers in thrilling head-to-head pirate battles on the high sea! Launch ships from your baes on one side of the map, capture towns and other structures to strengthen your defense and increase your gold supply. Capture your enemy's base at the opposite end to win, but make sure you are also defending your own base! 75 campaign levels plus randomly generated maps in skirmish mode!

STREAMLINED RTS!
Fast paced gameplay with RTS and defense tactics without heavy resource management or the need to micro-manage units.

WEIGH ANCHOR!
Command your fleet of pirate ships as you send them to intercept the enemy pirates or lay siege to land targets. Send an armada of Brigantines or save your gold for a massive Ship of the Line!

CAPTURE!
Towns, guard towers, shipyards, lighthouses, mystical obelisks, and more can all be captured. Structures all have a unique purpose and will supply you with gold, attack your enemy, buff up you ships, allow you to launch more ships, etc.

UPGRADE!
Upgrade towns to increase gold production. Upgrade guard towers to increase their firepower and strengthen your defenses.

STRATEGY!
Will you aggressively capture towns to loot their gold or invest in the towns you have to increase their gold production? Wage a purely pirate ship battle or strengthen your defenses with upgraded guard towers? Find the right RTS strategy to beat each level.

75 UNIQUE LEVELS IN FOUR WORLDS!
Combat the enemy in the tropical Caribbean then follow them into Hades in the River Styx world. And the Open Sea and Chaos Ocean worlds have the largest levels of all

ADJUSTABLE AI DIFFICULTY!
Set the game to be as easy or as difficult as you want. Set the AI to adjust to your skill or set it to play a completely even/fair match every time. Pirates of all strategy skill levels should be satisfied

CONTROL TIME SPEED!
At any time you can speed up or slow down time to play at your own pace. Allow yourself more time to prepare your strategy or speed up your opponent's demise!

SKIRMISH MODES!
Two skirmish modes provide an infinite number of randomly generated maps

Early access notes: Campaign and skirmish modes are fully functioning. Graphics are being remastered for PC and may be inconsistent in some levels. A multiplayer mode and gamepad support will be added. Other gameplay tweaks and improvements are planned as well.
