Dubloon Disaster is an action game (with a multiplayer feature) released on January 12, 2007, set after a successful raid on Krawk Harbour by a small pirate ship. As it tries to escape they run into The Black Pawkeet. Users control Dorak, an enterprising young Krawk in a rowboat trying to salvage the treasure which sunk with the ship after the attack, avoiding the homing mines being fired from the Black Pawkeet.

How to play

Users control Dorak with the arrow keys, with the left and right arrow keys to turn, the up arrow key to accelerate and the down arrow key to reverse. When a Dubloon is collected, a new homing mine is fired from the Black Pawkeet and placed randomly, and will follow Dorak across the board, moving faster the closer he is to the mine. A maximum of 8 can be in play at a time, and should Dorak touch a mine the game is over.

Users are able to destroy the the mines by having them collide as they chase him. Users can also safely rush through new mines as they are being created for a little under a second. This is especially useful if a Dubloon should suddenly appear in front of Dorak when he collects another Dubloon, and users rush through collecting a new Dubloon in the off chance it should appear in front.
