Scyla
SteamDive into the waters of Scyla, a third-person 3D exploration adventure inspired by Lovecraft's universe. Discover the mysteries hidden into the depths as you pilot a submarine through a strange cave system. Run away from a criature that stalks you. Mechanics


At the controls of a submarine, you must explore a mysterious cave system that is fragmenting the depths of the ocean of an island near Cape Verde. Rumors say that a treasure has been found inside these caves along with the remains of ancient ships.


At the beginning of the adventure, you will forge an alliance with a small creature that will accompany you and help you defeat the strange sea creatures that you will encounter along the way by throwing water jets at them as projectiles.


To move through some areas of the map, you will have a hook that will let you move easily, grab certain surfaces and attract certain objects. In addition to using your insight and skill, you can find the hook upgrade, with which you can imbue it with electricity and use it to stun your enemies and go through areas with electrical surfaces.


The state of the submarine will be represented by a barometer. When the submarine is hit, the pressure of the barometer will decrease until it reaches the critical point. After this critical point the submarine will explode. We can stabilize the state of the submarine by collecting orbs that we will find by destroying some objects.
