Privateer - Naval Combat (Prototype)
A downloadable game for Windows
Privateer - Naval Combat is an immersive, focused naval dogfighting experience that drops players into a real time battle between a crew of privateers and pirates.
Privateer - Naval Combat Simulator utilises a unique and grounded perspective in bringing to life the mid-18th Century naval combat encounters. Players take direct control of the a US Navy frigate and engage the enemy in the battle to free island ports.
The 3rd-person naval combat requires the player to manage their speed, firing patterns, ally ships and environmental obstructions to outmanoeuvre the enemy and free the region from their banditry!
The seas are rough. You need to be rougher. Do you have what it takes?
This game is a prototype, and future development is on pause for now.
Controls:
- Right click mouse to look, scroll to zoom
- W and S in targeting mode to increase/decrease range.
The other controls are on screen.
Feedback is very much appreciated! :)

Hi, I like the realistic visuals and the sounds. Tried the simulation, but I could not set the sails (only shoot the cannons). How do you set the sails? It says "all other controls are on the screen" but I could not find the button to set the sails or move in any way.
It's a pitty that it's "paused", I like this kind of projects. In fact I've been working in a similar project. If you are interested in a realistic sailing naval simulation, you can check my project: The Weather Gage by Aidedecamp
Hey thanks for trying out the game. You use "Z" and "X" to change move speed
