Instructions

The objective of the game is to eat and evolve, while diving deeper into the unknown. The deeper you dive, the darker it gets and the more dangerous the enemies. You have to eat smaller creatures to grow bigger and better. Eventually you will get fins that will make you go faster when you accelerate. To eat big creatures, you have to eat their "life dots" to break them up into smaller creatures you can eat. Be careful, or your life dots could get eaten by the big creatures. If this happens, you will be forced up a level.

  • If a creature glows orange, it is trying to attack you.
  • If a creature glows dark blue, it is panicking and running away from you.

Controls

  • Your creature follows your mouse cursor.
  • Hold left mouse button to accelerate.
  • Eat the red creature to dive deeper.
  • Eat the blue creature to go shallower.
