7. Strategic Tips: To excel in Piratez.io, consider the following strategies:
   • Escape Islands: When your ship is outnumbered or outgunned, try to escape to open waters. Islands can provide cover and make it difficult for your enemies to chase you. Use your superior maneuverability to your advantage and engage enemies on your terms.
   • Island Advantage: Conversely, try to lure your enemies into areas with islands. Islands can obstruct their line of sight, making it harder for them to aim accurately. Additionally, you can use the islands to your advantage by maneuvering around them and launching surprise attacks.
   • Ship Class Advantage: Each ship class in Piratez.io has its own strengths and weaknesses. For example, some ships may have better speed, while others have superior firepower or durability. Experiment with different ship classes to find the one that suits your playstyle and take advantage of its unique benefits.
