About the Game

"Welcome back, 617."

Sunken Seeker is a short, first-person underwater horror game. Piloting a rusty, decaying submersible, you must navigate the crushing darkness of the open ocean. Burdened by a massive financial liability, your only path to freedom is down.

Your goal is simple: Salvage enough value from the depths to pay your debt before the Day 7 Deadline.

PILOT THE SUBMARINE

You are trapped inside a rusted cage that is constantly failing.

  • Fear the Void: The ocean outside is pitch black. You can only see what falls within the narrow cone of your headlights.

  • Scan for Survival: Since you are effectively blind to your surroundings, you must rely on your manual radar to hunt for salvage signatures and track threats before they lunge out of the dark.

  • Mechanical Salvage: Use the sub's heavy manipulator arm to grab and secure cargo.

  • Defensive Measures: You have no weapons. Your only defense is a Strobe Flash with limited charges. It won't kill the things in the dark, but it might stun them long enough for you to escape—if you don't waste it.

MANAGE YOUR ECONOMY

The Director demands payment in full at the end of the week. Every credit you earn presents a choice. You can invest in critical submarine upgrades to make the dangerous work easier. Or, you can save your earnings to ensure you can cover the massive debt. Finding the balance between your safety and your bank account is up to you.

THE DEPTHS ARE NOT EMPTY

Your sensors pick up movement where there should be none. The hull groans under pressure, but some sounds seem to come from outside. Explore industrial ruins, sunken supply lines, and ancient structures buried beneath the silt. There are things down here that do not appear on standard charts.

Will you clear your debt, or become part of the wreckage?
