Flintlock
FliNTLOCK is an indie story RPG where the player takes on the role of Flintlock, who sails through seas filled with monsters that are so big they can swallow entire islands whole. The goal in each round is to battle a sea monster and win treasure from them while avoiding attacks by your crewmate's shipmates or other creatures you encounter at night when it gets dark outside; players need to be quick on their feet, since the more time passed without fighting something that needs killing (and therefore has access to better weaponry), the lower FliNTLOCK score will become. If they make a mistake in combat and get hit by an attack or lose treasure from defeating monsters for too long before retrieving it -- losing points, but also risking being attacked again--the game ends after just one round per monster (unless you manage to kill them all).
