I have found myself going for a 10-20 minute dip after work, for absolutely no reason at all, other than to unwind after a hard day’s work. Biart has given the world an unexpected delight with Depth Hunter and I eagerly look forward to their other works in progress."

"Depth Hunter is an absolutely stunning game, its sheer beauty makes it stand out from the simulator crowd, and whilst the missions are fairly basic, the game is a true marvel in its free mode; allowing you to swim around with fish, take some nice photos, and enjoy the view 4/5."

Originally posted by Christopher Livingston, PC Gamer:
"The environments in Depth Hunter are quite pretty, there are giant manta rays, which are fun to look at, there are a lot of activities and a free mode for just swimming around on your own. Overall this was an enjoyable simulation, right up until I was horribly murdered by a cursed immortal pirate and forced to serve for all eternity in his underwater pirate army, never again to know warmth or rest or peace."

There is the need of some games like this. Looks and plays beautifully and it's one of a kind, as very few games ever give us the chance to explore the sea.

Очень красиво!

Looks impressive, though undecided if I'd get it at the moment, so will hold vote for now.

I'm hoping to someday get a PC game that is equivalent to the Endless Ocean games on the Wii. What I want is a beautiful HD underwater world to explore. This is pretty close.

Beautifull. Do you plan to add oculus rift support for great immersion?
