A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Swindle Snipe

Our Ethshar-based casual game is a multi-level puzzle game where the player takes the wheel of a pirate ship! Players maneuver the pirate ship around the play-space and fire cannons to affect the environment. Manipulate the environment so you can grab the treasure and go!

Controls

Move the pirate shipClick and drag the ship to a new location
Shoot cannonballPress "C" to shoot a cannonball from the ship
Shoot hookPress "H" to shoot a hook from the ship


How to win

You win levels by hooking the treasure chest with the pirate ship's magical hook and reeling it in.


Most levels will have walls blocking the treasure, which will prevent you from easily grabbing it. It's your job as the captain to shoot cannonballs to manipulate this environment. 


Each level will have a different layout of walls, some walls are able to be moved. You can move such walls by shooting them with a cannonball. However, other walls are resilient to such cannonballs and will not move. Solve these puzzles and get away with as much treasure as you can!

Is a level supposed to automatically end once the treasure chest has been reeled in? Because that never happened to me (and the chest was shown on the ship, so the game was aware it did happen).

Ingix,

Thanks for the feedback! We actually just fixed this issue. We had it automatically going to the next level after the treasure chest is collected, which breaks on the last level. Now we have an end of level UI and win screen. This update should be available for download very soon.

Thanks again
