Sailing by the Lighthouse
Drowned in despair, a once-bold captain succumbs to the siren's call of drink, his eyes vacant, once-proud bearing now a tattered shell.
Gameplay:
- Explore your creativity by tattooing the once-bold captain, take advantage of the light provided by the lighthouse, cause you can't see what's behind the darkness of the sea.
Story:
- In the shadowy realm of the high seas, where salty air mingles with the haunting echoes of distant waves, there exists a figure both feared and revered—an old captain whose very existence seems woven from the fabric of lunacy and the tempestuous depths of the ocean itself. With a wild mane of silvered hair that dances in the wind like the froth of a storm-tossed sea, the old captain's weathered face bears the etchings of countless battles waged against both man and nature. His eyes, two tempestuous whirlpools of cerulean, hold a fierce intensity that hints at a mind forever bound to the ebb and flow of a world unseen by most.
Colours used:
Dark blue: #11192C
White: #E9EBDB
Theme:
- In the game the player can tattoo whenever they want. However, the sea is dark at night and the only way you'll be able to see what you are doing is thanks to the light coming intermittently from the lighthouse.

This was a cool game. I don't have a steady hand so my tattoo sucked but it was still fun.
Hey @BlancoKix, you made my day! Thank you so much for recording and sharing this amazing gameplay, also for the well structured mentioning and YouTube description.
Thanks to your gameplay we have detected that maybe at the beggining of our experience it is not well indicated that you can actually tattoo the real sailorman forearm :)
You're welcome, and I'm glad I made your day. I try to do my best to give full credit in the description in a way that makes sense.
I had no idea I could also tattoo his forearm, I'll go back and do that too.
Keep up the great work with this project and many more :)
What a silly little romp! The rocking of the boat effecting the strokes of the brush was rather entertaining!
The idea of a, only at times, illuminated ship at sea is a bit similar to my entry, "La Obscura." Perhaps you might like it!
Good Jam!
Thank you Duke! I played your game and feels amazing :)
