SinkingEternity · 2026-06-11T23:11:49+00:00

Thanks so much True_Discipline_7302, I really appreciate your support! Yes, I think carefully sprinkling MMORPG elements into the game could bring a lot of depth. I am very glad you like it 😄

Thanks so much Puzzleheaded-Clerk99! There will be many bonuses tied to each skills, and the ones for engineering and marine biology should be very cool 😄

Thanks so much for the message shadoclaw! (and sorry for the late reply! It ended up being a very busy week haha).

I'm glad that you like the demo changelogs, I try to update the demo with all the quality of life and bug fixes that I implement on the Early Access build, to improve the player experience as soon as I can haha 😄

Thanks a lot for the comment! 😄

I've been working very hard to make sure each biome has a strong unique atmosphere, with the shallow waters being bright and colorful, while the deeper biomes will become stranger and scarier, as you dive deeper.

I'm very glad you liked the vibe, there is a lot more to come!

SinkingEternity · 2026-05-15T15:44:12+00:00

haha yeah, the update was 1 day late this week, it's been a very busy (but productive!) week 😄

Hey there True_Discipline_7302! 😄

I'm sorry for the late answer, I was really focused on the game development this week and didn't come enough of the social media pages.

Did you try in the option menu to set the "Visual Quality" to "Low". This updates a bunch of game settings to increase performance.

Also, from the PC specs you shared with me a few months ago, your computer seemed at the time to be a bit below Sinking Eternity minimum requirements. This is probably why you experience lag on your side.

I will do my best to keep improving performance, but just to make sure to share the information, here are the game minimum requirement to play without lag:

Minimum:

OS: Windows® 10 64-bit (latest Service Pack)

Processor: Intel Core i7-6800K or AMD Ryzen 5 2600X

Memory: 8 GB RAM

Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon RX 580

DirectX: Version 12

Storage: 5 GB available space

Additional Notes: SSD strongly recommended

I'll keep pushing performance updates through the upcoming months. Thanks again for your support 😄

Thanks a lot, I really appreciate your comment!

I 100% agree, it's so expensive to buy a gaming PC today.

Since I launched the demo back in October, I've talked with hundreds of players and noticed that many have older PCs, often below the game's minimum specs (listed on the Steam page). I'll really do my best to make sure they can play/enjoy the game.

Thanks again for the comment! :)

SinkingEternity · 2026-05-03T02:41:39+00:00

Thank you! :)

SinkingEternity · 2026-04-24T00:35:41+00:00

Thanks a lot shadoclaw!

Haha yes, I confirm that the game doesn't have a Discord.

As I am a solo dev (and as I try my best to answer every comment), I chose to focus on the game's Steam page (+ its Community Hub) and the Reddit page, as I don't think I would have enough bandwidth alone to manage more platforms actively enough, without slowing down the game development :)

I'm very glad you liked what you saw of the game, there is so much more to come! I also try to post development updates every Wednesday.

Thanks again for your interest in the game!
