It is with great excitement that I invite you to dive into the depths of the ocean for some beta-testing!

I'm planning on running the beta test until December 6th! It's an open beta, but if the participation count goes higher than anticipated I may make it limited.

As it is, the game lets you explore a small basin, populated by a sunken pirate ship, mindless laser-shooting whales, bottles filled with voices of the dead, and ancient stone fragments, waiting to be found and translated!

There’s still a lot in my mind and on paper that isn’t in the game yet. But I want to get what I have into your hands so I can get feedback, and if I wait until I have everything done, then it’s going to be harder to make changes. Please note that I intend to work out whatever problems you will encounter. I want the final game to be as great as possible!

Please feel free to leave your feedback on this form![forms.gle] All questions are anonymous and optional!

It’s been a long journey, and there’s still ways to go. But the game is at a checkpoint, so to speak, and I hope you’re able to make time to check it out!

Thank you so much for your interest and help. I sincerely hope you enjoy this beta!

All you need to know to get started is how to swim and rotate. The final game will have a tutorial and let you customize controls. But for now, you can use either a game controller or keyboard with the following inputs:


Right as the fish becomes parallel with nearby ground, you can press the Swim button for a speed boost.

Turning the control stick faster makes the fish rotate faster. (This feature will soon be better integrated with keyboard controls.)
