Sail across the Wacky Waters to reach Heaven alive. Loot, shoot and defeat other captains as you find more crew members and upgrade your ship with new cannons and crazy gadgets. Sink. Repeat.

Captains of the Wacky Waters is a fast-paced boat roguelike where ships drift and krakens wear moustaches!

Back in the day, helping ghosts get to Heaven was an easy task, but someone wiped out the peace in the Wacky Waters and now all the captains have to learn to defend themselves and their crew. At least until the old days return. Combine the strength of your rowers and the wind force to navigate around the procedurally generated zones, gradually improving your ship and finding powerful configurations that will help you in combat.
