All the pieces are there for a good game but they don't mesh (at least in the vid). Weird slow sea shanties in a fast paced shooter style environment. Giant air-roomba fighting ornithopters. Blimp with Cthuhlu-esque tentacles fighting bi-plane bats. None of these are bad things by themselves, but there isn't a concurrent theme that makes sense. This is more of an interaction simulator than a game. Great job though!
Nice, I'm 36, going on 37, and will be starting my dev journey this year. Love the idea and gameplay. Love the variation on "Haul Away Joe," but I am with @IrishRover, where I think it would feel better faster; not quite "Jolly Rogers" fast, but that will jive with the hectic shoot-em-up energy.
I think I played a game just like this on Kongregate years ago; same sky pirate/airship theming and everything. I'm not meaning to offend--good on you for making your game a reality--just saying I'm fighting a really strong sense of deja vu.
