Avast, ye pirate fans, thar be a new comic adventure released today, as Brawsome's Jolly Rover is now available for purchase and download.

Jolly Rover's twist on traditional pirate fare is that its hero happens to be a dog. In fact, so does everyone else. After the death of this father in a tragic joke cannon mishap, the lovable dachshund Gaius James Rover strikes out on the high seas to "three wild and untamed tropical islands, as he attempts to fulfil his dream of starting a circus, hampered only by pirates, villains, voodoo, love and considerable lack of loot."

The game can be purchased now from the official website (processed through BMT Micro) for $19.95, which provides a key code for activating through Steam. Jolly Rover is expected to be launched later today on Steam itself, along with a playable demo, and will soon be available through other download portals as well.
