San Jose, CA — For Immediate ReleaseThe classic game, Taipan, developed an almost fanatic following, and is still highly revered. Taipan's influence has been enjoyed by a growing fan base in the online adventure game, Pirate Junk (http://www.piratejunk.com). Pirate Junk sports battles at sea, warehouse cargo storage for opportunities to gain greater wealth, new bank options, enhanced functionality and a very pleasing user interface.
Pirate Junk is a browser-based adventure game with a fantasy-action-adventure format, featuring rich graphics
and a fun storyline set in the exotic 1860's on and around the China Seas. Built and run entirely on Mac equipment and servers, Pirate Junk gives the player the ability to gain great wealth, battle with up to five rogue ships at sea, a vast variety of fun scenarios and great functionality. Any computer, Mac and PC, with Internet access that uses Internet Explorer 5+ can fully enjoy all the features and fun.
Pirate Junk 2.0 was developed by entrepreneur Stephen Oachs, owner of Pixelmation Internet Technologies. "We worked hard to bring this level of game play to the browser and so far it's been a huge success. The game play is exceptional and challenging. It's really a new adventure every time. It's an intuitive program with new scenarios added every chance we get."
"One of the first and biggest requests we had was for real-time interactive pirate battles. We couldn't resist the
challenge. We've also incorporated historic regional research and period mythology to keep game play completely entertaining…and somewhat
educational as well. We have been blown away by the response we're getting for 2.0 - Pirate Junk is a
classic game concept available on the Internet, and we're very excited to offer it game lovers and pirate fans alike."
