Challenger Deep
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
u2.2026.3.1
A game about the ocean. Take a submersible to the bottom of the ocean, the Challenger Deep.
This game takes a little while to play. It can take anywhere from 1 to 1.5 hours, depending on the choice of submersible you make. DSV Limiting Factor is the slower of the two, while the Deepsea Challenger is the fastest.

Install instructions
Extract the downloaded folder and run the executable inside.
Windows Users:
Windows may show a popup that says something like "Windows protected your PC". This is completely normal. I do not have a publishing key, so Windows does not know who created this file. Just click "More info" and "Run anyway".
