Implement support for different levels of difficulty in the game (e.g. easy, normal, hard).

• Mines can spawn on top of the player causing the player to start with half health or die instantly
• Clouds appear out of nowhere instead of starting offscreen or fading in
• Mines and weather do damage to the player when invincible
• Crashing with objects sometimes does twice the damage it should and sometimes no damage
• AI Ships ignore mine locations and crash into them

Should be based on difficulty and maybe dependent on which college the ship spawns near. e.g. different colleges could have different types of enemy ships - or they could be neutral

• Write an AudioManager
• Find audio for the game
• Add sound effects
• Add music?

Implement facilities that allow players to save the state of the game at any point and resume a saved game later.

Implement bad weather (sailing through bad weather without sinking may accumulate more points than simply sailing through good weather).

Ideas:

• Explosive (explodes on impact and does a radius of damage)
• Starburst (shoots all around the ship)
• Buckshot (many smaller cannonballs that spread out more)
• Freezing (freezes ship it collides with)
• Sniper (moves instantly to the target)

Implement a way to “spend” the plunder (e.g., gold) acquired, e.g., to repair a ship,
to acquire new provisions or weapons etc.

Implement a barrier that is not easily penetrable and weakens as tasks are completed (colleges are defeated) in order to prevent the objective (central college battle) being immediately available to the player.

Implement five special power ups that the player's boat can obtain on the journey (e.g. granting temporary immunity, repairing damages).

Repairing/Improving documentation, improving algorithms, simplifying code, etc.

Implement a way for players to make other colleges allies after they’ve been defeated.

• Win and Lose screens need to be more obvious so players don't get confused
• An instruction page is required
• The HUD needs redoing

Implement obstacles:

• Sea monster
• Whirlpool
• Sea mines

Implement combat with other ships.
