About

     In this award-winning* satire of gaming culture, you'll face the ultimate test of willpower against history's most manipulative pirate. He'll beg. He'll bargain. He'll gaslight. He'll hit you with uncomfortable psychological questions and make you question your own life choices if need be! He'll assault you with anime references and memes from all ages - some so ancient your grandpa might still remember them!

He'll even try bribes like "I have a Half-Life 3 beta key!" (He's lying).

Features:

  • 💬 1,000+ Lines of Trash Talk: Dialogue that reacts to your deaths, timing, and hesitation.

  • 🤡 Unpredictable Humour: Fourth-wall breaking gags about developers, players, and the game itself. Some references are so old and obscure you’ll wonder if you and the developer are the only two people on Earth who get them!

  • 🏴‍☠️ Master of Mischief: Our antihero is a real master of his craft! He controls the lighting, the fog, and even the wind! He can summon music out of thin air (how does he even do that?) just to set the mood and mess with your head. But that's not all - rumor has it he possesses the technology to count your deaths! Unbelievable!

  • 🎵 JRPG Vibes & Lo-Fi Chills: Need a break? Just leave the game running in the background! The Pirate has nearly an hour of original arrangements inspired by the golden age of JRPG legends and more. It’s basically "Lo-Fi Pirate Beats to Press X To."

  • 🌍 Devious Localization: Our pirate has sailed the seven seas and knows the cultures well. He adapts his jokes to specific national tastes that hit really hard! Nothing is sacred to him.

  • Respects Your Time (Not like the Pirate): We cut out the crafting system, the fetch quests, and the 50-hour campaign. What's left? A concentrated dose of 30-60 minutes of madness. Perfect for a lunch break or a quick existential crisis.

Press X to experience regret!

(Seriously, don't press it. Or do? We're not your mum.)
