ːjollyrː Patch 1.1 is currently in progress and slated for release on March 15th. Alongside various adjustments, it will incorporate many of the features we initially promised but couldn't implement in time for the initial release.

ːjollyrː On March 15th, we will also provide an overview of the first month's results, unveil the roadmap for upcoming updates, and outline the future plans for the game and the series.

ːjollyrː Our main priority now is to fix bugs and blockers. Things are going really well so far and it looks like we will be able to take care of the most of tech issues in the next three weeks. Additionally, we are working on fixing the English translation, which has been ready for a while, but integrating it into the code is a manual labor and it is taking some time.

ːjollyrː We've hired several full-time employees to take care of 3D, 2D and animations. Finally we are getting somewhere.

ːjollyrː Steam Cards are ready and have been sent to Valve for approval.

ːjollyrː We are currently working on three more localizations: Spanish, German, and Ukrainian. Actually, it is not "we" as developers, but rather a heroic community effort.

The Spanish localization is the most extensive at the moment, thanks to Jtem and Escorpion. You can tag them in our Discord if you wish to participate.

The German translation is being handled by Skinny - you can leave comments on his mod if you're interested in contributing.

As for the Ukrainian translation, it's being undertaken by utconoss, the founder of BlackMark Studio, therefore ensuring high-quality results.

If you're keen on seeing your own language supported, consider creating a mod similar to Skinny's on our Steam Workshop - we'll reach out to you and offer any assistance possible.

That was intense. I don't think I ever saw that much feedback delivered in a day in my entire career.

Tutorial quests have been redone - it is a linear experience where game time moves forward and vital buildings get unlocked with each completed starting quest. At the end of the tutorial, after the return from Guadeloupe, freeplay is available with no limitations. We will keep polishing this part of the game to make it a better experience for new players.

Our priorities at the moment is fixing blocker bugs that prevent people from progressing the main storyline. Steam cards would be a nice to have too.

What's new:

• Accessing the global map while using the alternative control setup no longer causes weird visual glitches.
  
• The issues with the final round of the Regatta quest have been addressed.
  
• Further tutorial polishing - the boat is available immideately after leaving the tavern.
  
• No more random changes of the difficulty setting.
  
• Holy Water amulet no longer affects character's perks;
  
• Explorer achievement is now working properly;
  
• Mary is recruitable again - talk to her before leaving the Justice Isle.
  
• English translation fixes.
  

Good hunting, pirates.
