Silent Depth - a submarine game in development

Dear all,

I just want to introduce my little project here: Silent Depth

image
Click here for a larger image!

It will be a game most comparable to Archimedean Dynasty (Schleichfahrt). Maybe you better know Aquanox, but my project will be less a shooter, but more a simulation, which will (later) include stations, trading and so on.

At the moment there is only a small demo, you can download here.

The next (development) step will be a multiplayer part and of course some improvements like graphics and sound enhancement. ;)

Regards - Xaron

    Your creating this game? By yourself, or with a team?

    The game looks pretty good, but I am not a fan of Submarine games. Good luck with your project, hope it turns out to be a success.

    Thank you!

    Yes, I do it by myself. At the moment I'm the only programmer but I already have a 3d artist, a musician and story writer, too (and a second programmer who will help me).

    The development will proceed slow as I don't do it as a full time job...

    This is probably gonna be something to rep0lace EVE for the people who like boring games.

    It's better be hated for who you are, than loved for who you aren't.

    Hmm... could you please explain that? I know Eve a little bit but there will be a some differences. Ok, SD will be more a niche product...

    BTW: Eve is not boring for everyone, I guess.

    Well, there is development all the time. Tomorrow there will be a new version containing a new model. Or do I misunderstand you?

    No. I was hoping for a new version.

    How's Multi-player coming along?

    A very first multiplayer version should be ready by the end of this year or the beginning of 2007.

    Wicked Xaron!
    I'm really impressed.

    Thank you! But please don't expect too much regarding this very first multiplayer version. ;)

      Can we expect it to be playable by 2009 ? I'm just jokin around btw. Making your own stuff is a good way to break into the industry anyways.

    That game reminds me of an older one that came out in 2001

    Aquanox

    @Gorukha: Sure.  As I said before, I hope to have a simple multiplayer mode running around the end of this year.

    @outfctrl: Hmm... Aquanox (1) was more a shooter than a simulation. I like the simulation aspect much more.
