While it’s not the outright horror you’d find in Iron Lung, Paradox Arc and developer Rocket Flair Studios’ newly announced Surviving The Abyss definitely has some creepy vibes to it. Not only are you having to lead a team of scientists on the ocean floor, caring for their well-being (and sanity), but you’ve also got to deal with what lurks in the dark depths, beyond the safety of your lights.
Set to arrive in Early Access on Steam on January 17, Surviving The Abyss puts you in 1976 during the Cold War. You have been tasked to build and oversee a deep sea research facility with the aim of perfecting (and weaponizing) human cloning. As such, you’ll be having to maintain the facility’s oxygen, power, food supplies, along with keeping your crew alive and sane. Along with discovering and mining resources, you must also explore and expand into the murky depths in order to further your research.
However, in doing so, be aware of the unseen creatures that lurk beyond the lit areas of your facility that have taken a keen interest in the invaders from the surface. Your crew is keenly aware that something is out there, and you’ve got to make sure that the power stays on in order that the lights keep whatever is out there at bay.
