Submarine warfare has never been so much fun! With sonars and torpedos! Stealthy options are available.

• Solo game option as a tutorial with procedural map to get used to the controls.
• Multiplayer game automatically hosted on a remote server (ensure game config options at startup says Host: "remote")

Gameplay tips:

• Tell your friends! Get them to join too!
• SPACE to perform a sonar scan to see what echoes back off the rocks
• You may detect enemy submarines (in red). They may have seen the effects of your sonar sweep.
• Sonar will not pick up enemy submarines hiding behind rocks. But their sonar may give them away!
• ARROW keys to step-increase power in certain directions. Use solo game to get used to this.
• F key to fire a torpedo in the direction you're facing.
• LEFT SHIFT to kill all power.

• R to respawn if dead (if necessary)

• Watch out for the backwash from a torpedo explosion

• Don't collide with the rocks/walls or you'll damage the hull
• Try and turn/reverse/shoot back to avoid enemy torpedoes!
