- A Studio Update - 12 February 2022
Hello! It has been many years since the release of Project Abyss, and whilst the game did not get very good exposure on Steam, and was permanently scarred in the reviews with outdated criticisms, I am really happy with how the game turned out. This update is about what I am up to now. After a few years as a games tester, I now work as a programmer for a large studio, so PC games are very difficult to make due to the scale of development in my free time. As a result, my focus has been on mobile games, with two released in the last year or so, and more on the way. If you like playing games on your phone, hopefully, I've made something that you'd like to try. It's been a long and wide journey full of learning, thank you for being a part of it. Again like Steam, exposure on Google Play has been super low. If you don't have a big established publisher and/or lots of money to throw at adverti…
- Controls! - 7 July 2019
Hello players. I want to address in a more visible way, the mixed opinions regarding the game's controls. In various reviews, many players have found the controls difficult to use, which is fair enough! There is an easier control scheme that can be selected in the options menu. Whilst I recommend the physics based controls rather than simple WASD ones to get a some-what simulation experience, it is understandable for players to want less frustration. Hope this helps!

- We need your reviews! - 7 January 2017
The good, the bad, the unfairly ugly, the in depth delightful- we need your help! The game has just 14 reviews so far. FOURTEEN! The game took 7 months and except music and artwork was designed and programmed by just myself, and I am incredibly happy with the result. But sadly, people are more likely to review if there are issues, and now all the bugs are removed it's gone stale! Thank you to anyone who leaves a review. - Tall Story Studios

- Patch #3 - Mostly fixing small issues - 2 December 2016
Bigger changes - Front drill is now at 90 degrees. It actually does make quite a difference. - Repair bar now disappears when entering the submarine if you enter with left click or right trigger held down. Bug fixes - In the new controls option, I've stopped the torpedo and harpoon flashing when clicking certain directions. - Slightly reduced bigger explosion sizes. - When Syringe and Attack drone is unlocked, pressing the syringe icon when out the submarine no longer releases the drone. - Restored the ability to preview other submarine types, as well as getting rid of needing e.g survivall sub unlocked to be able to select an unlocked attack one- something that came from another patch. - Exp is now not resetting when out of oxygen + loot drone returning. A rare situation but not one we want to happen.
