All hands on deck: New information on interface, equipment, and inventory of Kartuga

Today, new information about the highly anticipated pirate game Kartuga was published: For the first time, we can have a look at the entire interface of the game. And there’s some very interesting stuff to see: The Inventory of equippable items and crew members as well as the skill and experience bar at the bottom of the screen. Next to it are the slots for consumables you can use during battle, such as Repair kits that refill your energy, or short-term buffs.

You can also see some more of the inventory: There you equip crew members – these have different effects on the properties of your ship. Officers, carpenters, gunners: a whole range of professions is to be filled there. There are quite a few different slots where you can assign equipment and items. As usual in role-playing games, you can check out the stats of the item in the item description with a quick mouse-over. There you also see whether it is worthwhile to equip the item. In the screenshot you see a certain type of ammunition that can cause additional damage.

Particularly interesting is the small slot directly below the 3D view of your ship. There you can use different layouts of ships – The ship types that are available to you can be found in the “dock” tab again.
I hope you are as excited as I for Kartuga to start – only a few weeks to go!
