Performance Edition

Hi all, you can now activate the performance edition of the demo via the steam beta branch. As a result of some error-reports (such as not running the game at all) it is optimized for "older" hardware. It does not need a SM6 compatible graphics card and has some other optimizations for lights, shadows, physics and reduced overall geometry with performance in mind. It also features a different c…

Demo Now Live | Have A Dive For Free

Hi everyone, let's have a dive into this. The demo includes all functionality of the main game, one fairly challenging cave (so the cave refresh button ingame doesn't do anything here) and provides 2 level ups. I think that's the best way to test if it is a game to your likings, or not. Feel free to drop your feedback in the Steam Community HUB if you want to :) I really hope you enjoy it one w…
