In Murky Waters

A research expedition in freezing Antarctic waters goes horribly wrong.

You dive to the bottom of the ocean to find out what happened, and what they found there.

In Murky Waters is an investigative puzzle game set in the spooky environment of a sunken ship.

Controls: WASD + Space & CTRL to move. E to interact.

Disclaimer: this game has creepy vibes, but is NOT a horror game. There are no jumpscares.

Made in ~2.5 days by me (solo) for the Ludum Dare #57 - Depths

Liked the simple yet effective graphics, polished UI and the way the music kicks in right at the end.
