A Planet Swallowed by the Sea
Somewhere far from any coastline, the ground gave out entirely and the ocean won. In Water World, dry land is a rumor — what remains is a horizon of drifting islets, half-sunken towers, and coral trenches that swallow the sun the deeper you go. You start with a raft, a lungful of air, and a curiosity that will get you into trouble more than once. Every dive is a trade-off between how far you can push into the dark blue and how much air you have left to get back. The ruins beneath the waves aren't decoration — they hold scrap, old tech, and resources you need to patch your raft, extend your air supply, and eventually reach the deeper zones where the real salvage is hiding.
Controls and the Diving Loop
Movement is entirely mouse and click driven: point your raft or diver toward a destination and click to move, click on glinting objects and wreckage to collect them, and use the on-screen prompts to surface before your air meter bottoms out. The core loop repeats and escalates — sail to a new island or ruin, dive down, grab what you can carry, watch your air gauge, then surface and either repair your gear or push toward the next site. Upgrades you find or craft let you dive deeper and longer, which opens up new ruins that were previously unreachable. There's no combat to worry about; the real opponent is your own air supply and the temptation to grab "just one more" crate before turning back.
Tips for Staying Ahead of the Tide
- Always turn back at roughly half your air meter on unfamiliar dives — the swim up takes longer than it looks once currents are pulling against you.
- Prioritize upgrades that extend air capacity before ones that boost speed; running out of air mid-dive wastes an entire trip's haul.
- Shallow ruins near your starting island are safe practice runs — learn the click-to-navigate rhythm there before committing to deep trenches.
- Keep a mental note of which islands you've already stripped of resources so you're not backtracking to empty sites.
