'What Swims Beneath Us.' is a short horror game made in under 48 hours for Ludum Dare 48. The player must try to get as deep as they can before they run out of oxygen or get caught by what swims beneath. When moving down, the beast will come hunting, so be careful and track the monster on your tablet, with your eyes and with your ears. 

How to play: 

  • Click to the left or right of the screen to turn. 
  • Click at the bottom of the screen to bring up/put away radar tablet. 
  • Click on the button at the front of the cage to start/stop descending.
  • The monster is attracted to the sound of the cage descending.
  • Track the monster using the tablet, your ears and your eyes. 
  • The tablet has a limited battery life, so don’t rely on it too much. 
  • Keep track of oxygen and get as deep as possible without dying.
  • Descending whilst the beast is too close or descending for too long a period of time without stopping will cause him to attack. 
  • See how deep you can get. There is no 'ending' to this game, just want to get as deep as possible before oxygen runs out.
