You're on TV now. Make it count.


You’ve been selected to participate in Season 4 of The Earth Treasures Show!
No need to tell you what an _honor_ that is — billions of viewers across the galaxy are watching.

Each episode, a new contestant dives into Earth’s mysterious oceans in search of strange and valuable stuff.
You’ll be accompanied by the PeepCube™, a hovering audience-eye that must stay with you during your descent.
Keep the crowd entertained, collect as much as you can in 5 minutes, and maybe — _just maybe_ — you’ll go down in history.

Goal

Control a clumsy alien underwater and collect bizarre Earth junk.
Drop your treasures on top of the PeepCube™ to score points and impress viewers.

There are also interesting places to discover. Bring the PeepCube™ close to them to score even more points!

You can’t push the PeepCube™ directly.
Instead,
- Grab its anchor (press E)
- Attach it to nearby solid surfaces (press E)
- Activate the winch to drag it along (hold E)

It’s slow, awkward, and dangerously entertaining — just how the audience likes it.

Note

There is an online leaderboard. Your name/color and position at the end of the episode are saved in a database. When you start a new game, you can find the top 10 players while you explore!

I didn't have time to show the leaderboard in game...

Controls

- WASD – Move (on land)
- Space (hold & release) – Propulsion (underwater)
- Mouse – Aim for propulsion direction (underwater)
- E – Interact / Attach things
- F – Drop held object

Known Issues


Sometimes the anchor’s rope can get stuck in tricky spots.
If that happens, simply return the anchor to its slot on the PeepCube™ — the rope will reset automatically.
