This honestly looks pretty cool. Underwater exploration and construction sandbox game.

Thoughts? Anybody tried it?

Looks promising :yep:

Lots of positive reviews on Steam.

That one is on my wishlist, and I will probably pick it up when I have some money to spare.

Pros:
It is definitely a very pretty game.
Content amount and quality is good for its stage of development.
Lots of areas to explore.
The animal life is quite varied and interesting.
The premise is different from most survival games, being that it is set in a totally aquatic world.


Cons:
I'm really not sure if the devs are working from any kind of roadmap or not, or if they are just adding cool stuff as they think about it (development focus seems random).
Like most early access games, you tend to run out of things to do after a few hours, and there isn't much of a goal other than building all the vehicles/equipment.


Other:
The game world is not randomly generated (your starting point is random, and i believe loot/resources are random).
I really hope more zones and deeper water will be added.

I haven't looked at system requirements yet...but I doubt I can play it. I'll have to go off of what you guys and Youtube says most likely.
