What The Subminer is

The Subminer is an unreleased indie game in development at Tech Turtles, currently scheduled for 31 December 2027. It was published by Gamersky Games. It is available on PC (Microsoft Windows) only.

The premise, in the publisher's words

Earth is dying, and you are its last hope. A catastrophic explosion has ripped through the Enceladus research base and silenced it, no signal, no survivors confirmed. The fate of humanity’s survival is you - a prototype, a new kind of bio-droid designed for the impossible. Board your submarine and descend into the ocean, mining for resources and fighting deep sea monsters whilst battling your own isolation and fears. Find out what happened and bring back what the world desperately needs - if you can make it out, that is.
