Every attempt you made, every death you recorded, has pushed this world forward— or caused it to fracture.Welcome to the Early Access version. The deep sea awaits you.— The SQD Team

- Anchors Away: Updates, Changes, and the Next Step for the Submarine - 11 February 2025
Ahoy, Divers! Long time no see! It's been four months in the blink of an eye. For a while, our submarine project was put on hold. Over the past few months, we've run into quite a few challenges—especially personal ones on my end. As a result, we had to find work to stabilize things. But now that life has settled down, development will continue! That said, it'll be at a slower, steady pace as we work on it in our free time. During this break, I've been reflecting a lot on the game’s overall design. After watching several streamers play, I’ve realized that the game's rules might be a bit too complex—weapon attributes, limited equipment slots, strange skill behaviors, room rewards… all of it together creates a high learning curve. The data also shows that around half of the players leave after about 10 minutes—right around two deaths. That means the game currently lacks a strong enough hoo…
- 0.3.2 update - 19 October 2024
Added UI related prompt information in the starting room.
- 0.3.1 Major Update - 14 October 2024
Hello everyone, submarines: Version 0.3 has finally been updated. This version adds a lot of props, weapons, second levels and bosses, etc. Major changes: Each floor's reward room has added a mutual exclusion system. When choosing a different room, the other connected room will be consumed (skills and weapons are mutually exclusive, upgrades and stores are mutually exclusive) Rooms 1-13 no longer force the multiple growth of the gold room to be interrupted, and the store will be forced to refresh in room 14. (So if you want to choose to upgrade, you need to choose before the 14th) The core room can always match three skill core props according to the equipped skills. Choose one. The weapon component changes from a random prop to three choices, and matches according to the growth of the secondary attribute selected by the player. Now you can choose to buy weapons, skills, skill cores, an…

- Demo Version Breakdown - 5 September 2024
Hello fellow subs: I am very happy to discuss the Demo version of SQD. Original plan It is composed of 4 floors, and only the 1st and 3rd floors have fixed upgrade systems. All weapon upgrades and skill upgrades also have components to achieve the same effect, but they require additional equipment slots. Therefore, more floors are required to complete. However, the content of the Demo version is not enough to support the monsters and content volume of 4 floors. In this regard, we have made special prop refresh adjustments for the Demo version. This adjustment will break the strategic nature of the original design. It's more about luck. In the current Demo version, we have arranged 3 skills, and 20 components and skill cores. The version is already undergoing technical testing, and the Demo version is expected to be released next week. I hope everyone can have fun playing it.
