Development Beta Launched!
August 21, 2011
After six months of development, Woodley Games is proud to present a public in-development release of its newest game — Spocean.
We’ve got three servers hosting the game, with each game capped at sixteen players. This is a very limited launch, as the game can currently only be played on these three servers, but with your help and a few more weeks of testing and polishing we’ll have a full release of Spocean headed towards computers near you!
We hope you enjoy our game and welcome any questions or feedback (it’s still a little rough around the edges).

About
WHY should I download this strange, unfamiliar game?
We’re pretty sure that Spocean is the only game in existence that simulates Napoleonic-era naval warfare from a first person perspective.
I don’t really care about navals or Napoleans.
Fair enough. I do think you would enjoy the strange, retro-futuristic “woodpunk” art style though.
no. I don’t think I would. This has been good, but I’m going to go watch cats falling off of–
Wait! You may have no interest in history or art, but you are a PC gamer, and the fact that you’ve found your way to this shady corner of the internet tells me that you’re probably pretty hardcore, and most likely pretty desperate to find a ray of hope in today’s abyss of recycled gameplay.
Go on.
Online first person shooters haven’t changed much in the past decade. With a few exceptions, new coats of paint are usually just slapped onto the same basic premise: Two opposing teams wander around the same environment and murder each other until a token objective is completed. Conflict is direct, direct, direct.
Spocean is fundamentally very different. Teams start on two separate ships, fire cannon shot at each other, and then try to board when they have the advantage.
Hmm…
THEN they murder each other.
Ah! Ok, that sounds interesting.
You should try it. Spocean might just be exactly the game you’re looking for.
