Overview

Long Dives invites players to embark on a unique incremental journey, plunging into the mysterious ocean floor. Starting with a humble generator in the sunlit Shallows, your goal is to build up power, minerals, and biomass. The core loop involves strategically 'Diving' – resetting your current outpost to gain permanent pearl upgrades and push deeper into the progressively darker and more challenging ocean zones. These zones include the Dark, the Cinders, the Fissure, the Hadal Zone, and the Rift, with even more profound areas revealed only through Ascension, leading down to the Nadir.

Highlights

  • Layered Incremental Gameplay: Progress through ten distinct ocean depths, each offering new challenges and opportunities for expansion.
  • Automation and Research: Utilize the Procurement Daemon to automate buying, building, and balancing resources, and set up auto-sell rules on the resource exchange. Four distinct tech trees allow for deep customization.
  • Strategic Reset Mechanic: The 'Dive' mechanic is central, allowing players to reset progress for permanent upgrades, encouraging a cycle of exploration and strategic reinvestment.
