XO
(I backed this game on Kickstarter, and helped out with alpha and beta testing…)
XO has a lovely mix of tactics and strategy within a relatively short three to five hour game run. But learning XO well enough to survive that final run will take you much longer. It’s a game to be played many times as you learn more about the ships, the factions, the enemies, weapons and circumstances. Each time you’ll learn how to survive longer, how to make better use of the ships, systems and resources you encountered, and how to better choose through the event paths in order to win faction allies as you go.

I’ll split this review to what I enjoyed and what I did not.
What I enjoyed
-
You really get the feeling of trying to build together a rag-tag fleet of military and civilian ships, fleeing away from a seemingly unstoppable enemy while building up your arsenal, firepower and the capacity to support your fleet. Awesome feeling. :)
-
Lots of interesting concepts, boarding, resource harvesting, different kinds of weapons to counter different enemies. Really enjoyed different weapons, upgrades, ship types, keeping civilians in cargo holds (then performing a crew transfer to abandoned/disabled ships) and the ability build up my fleet. :D

Buoyancy
Buoyancy has something special going for it for sure, you know this within the few hours playing it.
However at the 6hr mark (at least for me) I felt like I had already experienced all of the game mechanics and all of the challenge was gone. Population was easy to maintain (even passed 150 pop) and everything else started to repeat itself. The pirates towards the end really weren’t a threat nor were fires and extreme weather threats.
There’s nothing wrong with any of this, especially because it’s a early access title and the low price point still provides decent value. I can’t say this enough, but games like this is exactly why I love early access. Buoyancy is a gem!

Its still in development but and I have high hopes for it in the future but right now its pretty dumb. For a full explanation continue reading.
Its virtually impossible to set up steady food production because the villagers you have working on water, wheat, bread, beer (yes beer) all the necessary things to keep the colony going just randomly quit there jobs and wonder off. Once your population reaches a couple or three hundred you are pretty much guaranteed to have one of these situation which results in running out of food faster than you can get all the villagers back to work and as a result dozens or hundreds die. Now to get to this point you had to build a large raft. You need a lot of villagers to row the raft around to collect supplies from the ocean. Once you lose a sizable chunk due to one of these wandering abandonments of duties you don’t even have enough people left to row the raft and are basically done.

My Sail And My Sea
My Sail And My Sea - from a screenshot to a game, the inspiration for making this game originally came from a screenshot of the game MineCraft, which is a sail warship built of blocks, but it can’t move, and It doesn’t fire. It just stands there quietly, like a bonsai. So, I first created the blueprint editor, and then designed a customizable sea world, associated with both, and gradually enriched other game content.
Blueprint editor
The blueprint editor is a tool that allows you to stack your battleships or whatever is interesting with cubes. You can also get blueprints from other players to enrich your inventory. The more blueprints, the more game content abundant. Blueprints determine the specific performance of various ships in the game, which can be strong or weak, large or small.
Naval battle and operate the cube warship
The warships generated by the blueprint are all “alive”. In the naval battle, you can operate a warship to move or attack, shoot at each other with hundreds of guns, smoke billows, and defeat the enemy warships to get rich rewards.
Random map and transform the world
At the beginning of the new game, ports, lands, resources and various ships will be randomly generated. As the game goes on, you can also constantly transform it, so that it really belongs to your own sea.
Encounter war
Encounter battle is a kind of battle on land for specific crew members. It is different from real-time naval battle. It is in the form of round battle chess. If you make some crew members into soldiers, you can take part in the battle. Please ignore their bullshit in the battle.
Port management
In the beginning, you only have a free port and a small ship. Through continuous growth, you will have ports all over the world, and you will drive even larger warships. The bigger the ship, the more crew and financial support you need, which means you More ports need to be controlled.
Maritime trade
Maritime trade is an important way to make money. Take an order, purchase goods everywhere and then transport them to the destination. You can get
considerable profits.
Catch parrots
Don’t forget to catch parrots. In the early stage of the game, they will play a good role in lubricating corresponding to different development routes.
