A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

After the plight of the Ever Given I had the desire to build a short, quick game based on the idea of piloting a ship through a Canal. While my day job did an admirable job of getting in the way of my time for this project, I got it to a playable gameplay concept - you can indeed pilot a single boat through a very short canal. Tap the WASD keys to increase/decrease your throttle/rudder, it feels funky, like piloting a boat. There's lots of fun gameplay to expand on later - currents, winds, time pressure, water pressure, other ships, space aliens trying to abduct and probe your cargo containers...

Built with Godot 3.3.

Install instructions

Download the file for your platform. The Windows build is just an EXE - run it and you're in the game. I think the OS X and Linux builds are similar. I don't know what compatibility the Linux builds have.
