Ominous Descent
Descend into the abyss on a strange planet with some very unfriendly wildlife! If the resolution is off try playing in theater mode!

Description

Demo Build

Descend alone or with a friend into the underwater abyss on an alien planet. With a headlight limited by your subs faulty battery, what you can't see can hurt you!

Note: You may need to play in theater mode or fullscreen as the resolution on GX games can be finnicky.

Current Features

Manage your subs battery energy as your mobility and headlight depend on it. You deal bonus damage to illuminated enemies while some can only be taken out with the aid of your light!

4 unique submarines each with their own weapon to choose from(1 in demo).

Various Powerups along with health and shield pickups.

3 permanent items with 3 tiers of upgrades.

A variety of enemies from peaceful Jellies to blood thirsty deep sea horrors.

Currently one full boss fight around 4.5 minutes in with plans to add 2 more to the pool.

Environmental hazards such as thermal vents and volatile gas pockets.

Can be played with either keyboard & mouse or controller.

Local Co-Op supported(keyboard + controller or 2 controllers).

A logs/codex page that tracks enemies found, powerups, items & hazards.

Basic Achievements - Will connect with Steam

Full game will be coming to Steam in Spring 2027. Any feedback or bugs found will be greatly appreciated.
