Tired of dropping out of the sky or building your own walls? Blazing Sails offers a dynamic mix of swashbuckling on dry land and naval combat against enemy crews!

Pirates laugh in the face of danger. You’ll keep re-spawning until your ship has completely sunk. - so it pays to take risks and play aggressively right from the start of a match.

Loot supplies, weapons and upgrades from the surrounding islands, then quickly teleport back to your ship! You can even share your plunder with your crew by dropping it in the Loot Deposit!

Looting is just one of the jobs to be divided among the crew - who’s gonna use that wood to repair the hull? Who will load the cannons with new ammo? And who will navigate and keep the ship out of the dead-zone? You’ll need to communicate and cooperate to secure the victory!

Change your playstyle based on the weapons you plunder. Take to the crow’s nest with your trusty sharpshooter, or board an enemy ship with the legendary life-stealing Sword of the Sea! Like something more explosive? Try the shoulder-cannon or fish-launcher. To each their own!

Pacifist at heart? It’s possible to win without firing a single shot! Just sneak aboard an enemy ship and remove their cork. Just make sure someone’s defending your own vessel while you do!

No two ships or pirates are the same! Show off your booty with a swath of customizable parts, clothing and accessories - embroidered jackets, gilded hulls, golden peg legs - you’ll get real fancy, real fast!

“Over the last few months, we’ve received a ton of support and feedback from our public testing via Discord, and we think it’s important to keep this going! Blazing Sails has already improved a lot from the pre-alpha and we couldn’t have done it without our devoted community. Early Access allows us to keep expanding this amazing community and keep the valuable feedback coming while testing our newest features.”

“We still want to implement, balance and fix a lot of stuff before we can start calling our game “fully finished”. Of course, this takes time - especially for a small team. Get Up Games is a start-up studio, Blazing Sails being its first game. We want to do it right. While we think the Early Access period will last about 6 to 9 months, we don’t want to fix ourselves too hard on a specific date. If we don’t feel like our game is finished, we also won’t feel comfortable with a full launch.”

“The current version of Blazing Sails contains all the core features you need in order to have plenty of fun! These are all relatively well polished but can easily be expanded and improved upon in the near future. Right now the game contains:

• 20+ unique weapons (including a few wacky ones)
• The ‘Brigantine’ ship type
• 3 Island clusters all with their own unique theme (Pirate town, Trident and Temple cluster)
• 3 different map settings (noon, sunset and night)
• Ship upgrades for the steering wheel, swivel cannons, cannons and capstan
• Plenty of pirate and ship customization unlocks
• Client/community hosted servers including a few admin commands

Things we will add during our Early Access period will be stuff like:

• More ship types
