Update on Our Journey!

Dear Players and Supporters,

We hope this message finds you well. At Misc Games, we are committed to delivering an exceptional maritime experience. With this commitment in mind, we would like to share an important update regarding the release of the Early Access version of Ships At Sea.

Last week, Unreal Engine 5.4 was released, introducing a range of new features and improvements with the potential to significantly enhance both game performance and visual fidelity. After careful consideration, we have decided to upgrade our game to this latest version of the engine. As a result, we are rescheduling the release of our Early Access version to May 23rd to allow our team the necessary time to upgrade, integrate, and optimize the new engine version.

We understand that this change may come as a disappointment to many of you who have been eagerly awaiting the chance to play Ships At Sea. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and are grateful for your patience and continued support.

Rest assured, we are fully committed to utilizing this additional time to enhance the game’s mechanics, and overall stability. We believe these improvements will be well worth the wait.

Introducing the Shipyard in - Ships At Sea

[h3]Unlock a New Level of Gameplay with the Shipyard![/h3]

Ahoy, Sailor's!

Welcome to the latest update on Ships At Sea. In Ships At Sea, you navigate the vast oceans and manage the intricate details of sea travel. We are thrilled to introduce a new feature that will enhance your seafaring adventures - the fully functional Shipyard. This addition is designed to improve your gameplay and deepen your engagement with every aspect of ship management.



[h3]Upgrades and Customizations[/h3]

Enhance your boat’s capabilities by upgrading various components at the shipyard. To upgrade or rig your boat, simply interact with the laptop located on the workbench in the shipyard.

  • Searchlights:
    Brighten the night with powerful lights that can guide you through the darkest waters.

  • Steering Wheel and Throttle Control:
    Customize your command center with our range of stylish steering wheels and throttle controls. While these upgrades are currently cosmetic, they add a personalized touch to your ship’s cockpit, enhancing your visual and immersive experience at sea.

  • Propeller:
    Boost your speed and efficiency with advanced propeller options.

These upgrades are just few examples, more options will be introduced to a later point. They will not only improve the performance or appearance of your ships but also add a layer of strategy as you decide how best to equip your vessel for the challenges ahead.

[h3]Keep Your Ship Pristine with the Power Washer[/h3]

After days and weeks at sea, every boat and ship starts to show the wear and tear of constant exposure to the elements. Use the power washer in the shipyard to remove the rust and dirt, keeping your ship looking as good as new.



[h3]Customize Your Captain at the Locker[/h3]

At the shipyard, you have the option to not only upgrade your vessel but also customize your appearance. Currently, there are preset clothing options available for different career paths that you can choose from. As the game continues to develop, we plan on expanding these options to give you the freedom to mix and match clothing and accessories. This feature will provide a more extensive wardrobe in the future, allowing you to create a unique seafaring persona.



[h3]Future Updates - Boat Repainting[/h3]

Looking ahead, one of the exciting features we're working on is the ability to repaint your boat. This feature will not be available for the Early Access release but is slated for inclusion in a future update. Players will be able to choose from a variety of colors by interacting with color bucket assets at the shipyard. This addition will allow you to customize your vessel’s appearance to your liking, adding another layer of personalization to your sea adventures.

New Cargo Items

Ahoy, Cargo Masters!

In the busy ports and vast oceans of Ships At Sea, the key to any vessel's success is its cargo. We are thrilled to announce that we have added various new cargo options that will challenge even the most experienced shippers. Early Access sets sail with Tier 1 and Tier 2 cargo boats, laying the foundation for a thriving cargo transport service.



[h3]Embark on a Cargo Adventure: Master the Art of Load and Lift[/h3]

Begin your cargo transport journey by gaining practical experience in manual cargo loading. This fundamental skill is the stepping stone that will pave the way for your future as a cargo transport expert. Once you have mastered the basics, you will move on to the busy port where you will be in charge of a crane. This is where you will refine your skills in the crucial practices of dockside loading.





As you sail through the Early Access waters, your cargo will grow in size and your operations will become more complex. You'll be in charge of larger cranes and steering bigger ships, all designed to meet the demands of your expanding logistics. This progression not only enhances the gameplay, but also introduces a variety of specialized cargo items with intricate details. Each new item not only adds layers of strategy, but also brings more joy to your nautical adventure.

Fair breezes and fruitful journeys lie ahead!

Redfish

Greetings, fellow sailors!

Get a sneak peek at the mysterious Redfish, one of the most fascinating features of our upcoming maritime adventure, Ships At Sea, set to launch in May 2024!

In the uncharted waters of Ships At Sea, every catch has a tale to tell, and the redfish is no exception. Renowned for its stunning color and deep-sea habitat, this fish is a perfect addition to our game, adding both beauty and realism. However, be warned, brave fishers, the redfish holds a secret beneath the waves that you may uncover.





[h3]A Sight to Behold: The Popping Eyes Phenomenon![/h3]

In the real world, pulling a fish like the redfish too quickly from the deep can cause its eyes to pop out due to the sudden change in pressure - a detail we've brought to life with stunning accuracy in the game. This not only adds a layer of detail to your fishing endeavors but also immerses you deeper into the life like dynamics of deep-sea fishing.

Take a sneak peek into our meticulous attention to detail in Ships At Sea. Watch our latest video showcasing this unique feature in action, and experience a thrilling and authentic voyage with us.
