Arcade Action :: First Person Swimmer

In development

Battle to the end as part of a salvage diver crew caught deep in the bowels of a sunken city. Fend off attacks by deep sea fish from your nightmares!

Story

Play as one member of a scuba diving salvage crew undertaking treacherous hunts for useful artifacts in submerged cities.
The earth's polar ice caps have melted, leading to massive flooding of continents. Major coastal cities have been submerged. Humans survive by retreating to the highlands, or taking to the sea in flotillas of aging oil-rigs and large ships. Experienced divers make very good money recovering valuable debris from the dangerous deep.

"In 2025 global warming takes a sudden turn for the worst. Global sea levels rise immensely - nearly engulfing the entire planet. Those who manage to survive are pushed to higher ground... Being the stubborn mites we are - we prevail."

"Some of the first safe houses are aging oil-rigs dotted around the planet. They have become somewhat self-sustaining sea-lodges for everyone from beggars to mercenaries, fishermen and scientists to the military. Many have since been modified to include green houses, life stock, aviaries, schools and other services…"

"...Some sites have merged, and united into small cities."

"...A major oil-rig site was pillaged and burnt out by raiders yesterday!"

"These cities prevail by salvaging useful relics from the ocean bed. Weaponry, fuel, even entertainment are rescued by revered salvage divers.

"With the polar caps melting some scientists speculate that dormant viruses may come to surface.
Talk on the wire tells tales of old - stories of horrific creatures that swarm the depths. Most disregard these as myth and legend……"

Fight your way through packs of Deep-sea Angler fish and other nasties from the dark depths.
