PING
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 hosted on a remote server (ensure game config options at startup says Host: "remote")
Gameplay tips:
* 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.
* 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!
