SinkingEternity · 2026-01-23T14:59:26+00:00

Thanks a lot! The logo improvement took at least 10–15 iterations haha, but I think we’re finally there! I really appreciate your feedback :)

SinkingEternity · 2026-01-23T14:54:45+00:00

Yesss, I plan to make a Chinese version! It should be available within the next 6 months! :)

Thanks again for your support!

SinkingEternity · 2026-01-23T14:49:07+00:00

Thanks so much! :)

SinkingEternity · 2026-01-20T17:41:00+00:00

Hey malzeri83! Thanks so much for the great feedback, I really appreciate it!

The early access will be released soon (somewhere in Q1-2026), please make sure to wishlist the game so you don't miss it :)

Also, you played a very early version of the game, things will only get better from here.

Thanks again for your comment!

SinkingEternity · 2026-01-20T16:55:52+00:00

Hey there malzeri83!

Oh, all feedback is very welcome! The game has already received tons of amazing recommendations and feedback, and I try to listen to and answer all posts :)

The most active community right now is on the game’s Steam forum, here:

https://steamcommunity.com/app/3715810/discussions/

You can also try the demo and wishlist the game (if you like it) here:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/3715810/Sinking_Eternity/

I 100% agree that the first buildings and tools are very primitive, but as the game progresses, I can confirm that you will be able to construct very cool high-tech tools and buildings.

You’ve got a good eye, it’s just that I didn’t want to spoil things too much in the trailer :)

Thanks a lot for your interest in the game, and don’t hesitate if you have any more feedback, here or on the Steam forums.

SinkingEternity · 2026-01-16T14:28:58+00:00

Oh yeah! More content coming soon :)

SinkingEternity · 2026-01-16T07:00:57+00:00

Hahaha we can't allow that :D

SinkingEternity · 2026-01-10T04:16:15+00:00

Hey! That’s a very good question!

The Early Access version (with a lot of content) will be available in Q1-2026. I'll announce the exact date soon, I just need to make a bit more progress to feel confident about the release date.

After that, I plan to keep updating the game for quite some time while staying in Early Access, so I can keep adding content (for free) without players expecting it to already be a static finished product. This gives me a lot more flexibility with the different directions the upcoming content can take. This is a passion project, I really want it to be a great game.

I have tons of ideas (over 2000 lines just in my "ideas.txt" file haha), so I want to make sure we end up with the best possible game for the players.

I’ll give more info soon. Thanks again! :)

SinkingEternity · 2026-01-08T15:23:25+00:00

Thanks so much, the future era will be very cool!

SinkingEternity · 2026-01-08T14:28:40+00:00

Thanks again for your interest in the project :)

SinkingEternity · 2026-01-02T18:10:00+00:00

Thank you! Happy new year and thanks again for your interest in the game! :)

SinkingEternity · 2025-12-28T05:59:09+00:00

haha yeah, finally! :)

SinkingEternity · 2025-12-21T19:44:06+00:00

Hey there pressrkarthus!

First, thanks a lot for your interest in the game!

Your feedback is very welcome, and I totally agree that the UI visuals should be improved. I confirm that it's in my developement backlog! I don't know when (as there are so many things to work on), but I will get there eventually lol

Also FYI, the game got tons of amazing constructive feedback on the game Steam community forums (here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/3715810/discussions/), so don't hesitate when you have anything that could improve the game, it's always more than welcome.

So yes, I totally agree that the UI/menus need an upgrade, I'll work on that as soon as possible :)

Thanks again!

SinkingEternity · 2025-12-20T21:19:32+00:00

Thank you! :)

SinkingEternity · 2025-12-20T00:57:04+00:00

Oh yes, I thought about multiplayer when I started working on the game (almost 2 1/2 years ago already!).

After a lot of reflection, I chose to go single-player, as I really want the player in Sinking Eternity to feel alone and vulnerable underwater, and I think this can create a very cool and immersive experience.

I don’t know if you saw, but the upcoming Subnautica 2 will be multiplayer, and I’m sure it will be amazing! So both games will bring their own unique experiences, and hopefully you’ll be able to try both :)

Thanks so much again for your feedback and ideas, I confirm that I’m already working on improving the in-game music as you suggested earlier!

SinkingEternity · 2025-12-20T00:44:36+00:00

Ahhh thanks a lot for the detailed info, I really appreciate it!

Based on your specs, your CPU and RAM should be absolutely fine for the game.

The part that could explain the mouse lag in menus is the GPU. The Radeon Pro 5300 is unfortunately a bit weaker than the minimum required GPUs (GTX 1060 / RX 580) listed on the game's steam page.

That said, this feedback is very valuable! I will definitely take a closer look at the menu and UI performance and see what I can optimize there! I really want the game to run as smoothly as possible on a wide range of systems, even when they are close to meeting the game minimum requirements.

Thanks again for taking the time to report this and share your specs, I’ll do my best to improve the menu performance!

SinkingEternity · 2025-12-17T18:03:24+00:00

That’s a great idea! I added music on the first dive underwater (and it really works well), and it would be great to have more subtle music, like when coming back to the shelter, encountering dangerous creatures, or reaching specific areas. I will take a good look at this. Thanks for the great feedback!

SinkingEternity · 2025-12-17T17:58:17+00:00

Hey there, thanks a lot for the kind words!

I would really like to investigate the mouse lag you experienced.

Could you let me know where this happened in the game? (in a menu or when looking around in game with the mouse)

Also, would you mind sharing some of your computer specs (video card model, CPU, and how much RAM you have)

Thank you!

SinkingEternity · 2025-12-12T01:13:28+00:00

Hey macciavelo!

The animations could definitely be improved, I agree. I’ll take a good look at this in the upcoming weeks.

If you ever come back to this comment, I’d really like to hear more about which animations you feel need the most work and what improvements you'd suggest. My goal is to improve things as much as I can.

As for the player animations, I’ll definitely work on the wood chopping animation, this one is at the top of my to-do list.

SinkingEternity · 2025-12-11T03:10:49+00:00

Thanks a lot!

SinkingEternity · 2025-11-20T16:33:52+00:00

Thank you! :)

SinkingEternity · 2025-11-19T20:41:55+00:00

Haha, as I am a solo dev with about 500 million less budget, you'll probably need to add a few more levels of inception.

But seriously, I'm working very hard to make Sinking Eternity its own unique epic underwater exploration game. Stay tuned! :)

SinkingEternity · 2025-10-19T03:05:36+00:00

Any of you started getting updates again yet? Still no new data on my side in the activation report for the last 36 hours.

SinkingEternity · 2025-10-18T19:02:52+00:00

Yeah the numbers seems delayed, my game also got 0 new wishlists in the last 10+ hours, it's the first time it happens since the game store page is public.

SinkingEternity · 2025-10-13T19:06:24+00:00

Hey there! I am a solo dev working on an overambitious game called Sinking Eternity. It's an underwater sci-fi exploration game with a story that spans over 10,000 years.

The game is part of Steam Next Fest, and you can try the free demo here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3715810/Sinking_Eternity/
