Very interesting, kept me playing for a while!
Only gripe is that buying things also anchors you.

Thanks, I'm so glad you enjoyed it. How far did you get?
Actually the whole reason I started implementing anchoring was so that you could stop at islands to buy upgrades. Only while messing with how to raise the anchor did I stumble across the slingshot mechanic, thought it had the potential to be fun, and just rolled with it.
