About the Game

You and up to 7 fellow subcontractors have been hired to deliver volatile cargo through dangerous depths.

Stay coordinated, keep the payload intact, and try not to panic when everything goes wrong.

The company expects delivery.

KEY FEATURES

  • 8-Player Physics Chaos: Designed for large-scale coordination (and accidental sabotage). Feel every pound of the cargo’s weight and the literal drag of your teammates as you navigate tight corridors or open waters.

  • Strained tethers:  Watch the physical stress needles on your dashboard; if it flashes, it means your tethers are at a breaking point. Coordinate your thrust or watch the lines snap. Any pilot cut loose is immediately cut off to avoid any search & rescue costs.

  • Procedural Industrial Trenches: No two smuggling runs are the same. Navigate different locations with varying cargo. Of course this also provides different levels of compensation.

  • Corporate Accountability: Survive the run to face the "Black Box" report. Company analysis identifies the outliers in the group, for increased... cooperation.

  • Career Progression (Or Lack Thereof): Earn credits to upgrade your "Mule" submarine to help your navigate the depths and to secure larger contracts or spend it all on a slightly more dignified funeral.
