- Ninth Development Log: Viva o Brasil! We heard you. - 28 May 2026
Greetings, Maritime Operatives from Brazil…This one's specifically for you. What started as a community moment — watching Alanzoka and his crew dive into the frozen depths aboard Old Porky, our beloved old sub — turned into something we couldn't ignore. The screams were there. The tension was there. But the words? They were missing. So we listened. And we got to work.Our next update is coming very, very soon. Some might even say Monday, June 1st. It's a big one, and it's got a little something for everyone:Brazilian Portuguese localization — for the amazing community that made this happenInverted Y-axis support — you know who you areNew minor scares — small, fun, and mean-spirited in the best way32:9 ultrawide resolution support — for those of you living in the wide lifeGraphical optimizations — smoother dives, less chop...and also Danish will be supportedViva o Brasil! Thank you for go…
- Hell Dive - Major Update 1.3.0.0 Now Live - 18 January 2026
Dear Damned Divers!It took time, but we're finally here. Update 1.3.0.0 is a major patch for Hell Dive, bringing new features, a large audio overhaul, general bug fixes and a lot of added polish. It’s been quite the ride. This update went several weeks beyond the original plan, due to extensive testing and iteration on the new audio, systems and design changes to get this update ready to ship. Sometimes development simply needs more time to brew. No matter how much it takes the breath out of you while getting there. In the end it's all worth it. The Teacup team is nailbiting excited to see how you take the new design to heart. "The goal for me with this update, was to subtly increase tention from the start and introduce larger cosmic existential vibes through the audio, especially while the player is truely alone in the Submarine and the colony. With Lambert in Facility 4 to set the lon…
- Eighth Development Log: Shiin Time is Over - 1 December 2025
Greetings Damned Divers,We’re back with our eighth development log, a pivotal point for both the team and me. For a long time, I’ve been up at night, writing down ideas for the alternative ending and everything leading up to it for you to get the best experience. One night, I realized that the game itself was actually screaming for a completely new final ending. This felt like the best way to experience Hell Dive… enjoying and fearing it to the fullest.Together with my Level Designer and Game Designer, we’ve built a chain in the game that leads most of you to a new ending, along with some minor fun puzzles. This new experience gives me goosebumps just thinking about what’s in store.DANGER AHEAD: Prepare for unexpected scares, deeper lore and a new layer of dread in the “new and improved” Hell Dive.As the headline says, inspired by the Japanese word *Shiin, we’re back, and we will come w…

First off, If you aren’t following Teacup games on Linkedin or on X, we’re really excited to announce that Hell Dive has been selected to participate in DevGAMM awards 2025.

You’ll need to explore every corner of this cursed ocean to get them all! A New Ending - We heard your feedback that the original ending was underwhelming, so we went back to the workshop to build, test and sleep way too little. We think you're going to like what we've created!! New Notes - There are new notes to find and more lore to obsess over! Clear Reading - We've made it easier for players to read on-screen text, regardless of visual or cognitive impairments. Audio Improvements - The audio mixing was inconsistent before, but we've streamlined it to e…
- Sixth Development Log: You Hellish People - 24 April 2025
Dear Damned Divers! Welcome to the Sixth development log for Hell Dive! This one took some time to arrive. You are Making This Hell Fun Watching all of you play Hell Dive has been surreal. From the life-sucking, game-breaking bugs at launch in January to the disappointment some felt with our original Hell ending! That really freaked us out. We had been testing with players and doing soul-wrenching QA pretty much 24/7. And then we hit the market. CRASH and BURN! But now May is arriving. And we are having a game that brings screams, laughter, and small moments of pure chaos. Moments like falling through walls from shaking too hard. Or calmly sneaking after one of our monsters... just to stare at its very well-shaped booty. Or watching those horrific food videos that can never be unseen. (We’re not naming names, but you know who you are, Mister!) Or having this “big gaming” guy casually sa…

With so much new in this patch, here are the most relevant additions, fixes, and tweaks: Added Control - Camera Sensibility Control - Steam Deck mapping Control - Controller mapping (Xbox) Sea - Area of Star-of-War jellyfish Sea - Monster added in the ice cold ocean.

- Fifth Development Log: Judgment Time - 6 February 2025
Dear Damned Divers! Welcome to the fifth development log for Hell Dive! We're excited to share our journey and the latest updates with you. Tik Tik Tik Time moves fast, and putting together the ending is taking time, but it’s coming very soon. It’s an impatient process right now. Daniel is in for quite a surprise, and we hope you will be too! To make Hell Dive worth revisiting, we're adding a bit more action-packed fire fun and a few extra secret scares to keep your toes hot. Something completely else While we wait for Daniel to be transformed into a very handsome 3D model (if you're into death and such), something else has pinged onto our radar! Steam Deck compatibility! Soon, you’ll be able to take Hell Dive on the go. Thank You for Diving In We appreciate your support and can’t wait for you to experience what’s coming next. The Teacup Games Team If you haven’t already, add Hell Dive…

- Fourth Development Log: A New Ending - 22 January 2025
Dear Damned Divers! Welcome to out Fourth development log for Hell Dive, where we share our journey and the latest updates with you! A Horrible Ending Seeing all you amazing people enjoying Hell Dive meant a lot to me personally. I loved it! BUT the sheer disappointment with the ending and the empty promises of a deeper lore, really frustrated me and the team. We heard you! In the end, I failed to deliver the unsettling horror experience I set out to create, and that is unacceptable. This is being corrected as we speak. Over the past week, I’ve been writing, biting my nails, drawing, pacing, pulling my hair, grinding my teeth, and drinking endless cups of tea. But it was worth it. Now, we have the foundation for an ending that I believe fits the game. There will also be some new small scares to enjoy, added to build up for the new ending. Thank You for Diving In Thomas-Bo and rest of Th…

The Battle Against the Giant Bug Just as we were preparing to release a new patch, we were ambushed by a giant bug of our own! One that nearly devoured us whole. Its know as the dreaded Memory Leak, this beast wreaked havoc on countless Hell Dive sessions and kept us up at nights. Rarely have we been so pale as we battled to conquer this monstrous foe.

- Release date: January 7th - 19 December 2024
Dear Damned Divers! As you may know, Hell Dive was originally set to release on Steam tomorrow, December 20th, 2024. However, the good folks at Steam pointed out that this date falls right in the beginning of the Winter Sale, where we would risk getting lost in a sea of incredible offers. Rather than diving headfirst into the horrors of being overlooked in 2024, we’ve decided to celebrate the new year by making Hell Dive one of the hidden gems of 2025 instead. We’re happy to announce that Hell Dive will now be launching on January 7th, 2025! Behind the scenes pictures with Fanny and Erika during our sound recording session for Virgil, the A.I. that will guide you in Hell Dive. The icy depths have never sounded this good. 🎙️ Now, it is soon time for you, Damned Divers, to descend. - The Teacup Games Team WISHLIST NOW! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3250020/Hell_Dive
