this game needs a sequel.

theres much talk about a megalodon somewhere out there. so I'm thinking, what about giant squids. large king crabs. battling submarines that deploy scuba divers that use scooters. not to mention helicopters that shoot from above. having references of jules verns 20 thousand leagues under the sea. battling the nautilus would be a great final boss or the cracken. the setting could be similar to the first game as an egg was dropped in the grotto a newer more powerful mutant shark is developed that can take on more properties of other sharks like the mud shark. crawling on land at faster speeds, a sting ray that can glide longer distances while jumping out of the water. the thrasher shark having a long whip like tale, the tiger shark being able to camouflage with its environment. having a new antagonist being a successful brother of Scaly Pete out for revenge who hires more satirical characters like 007, rocky, duke nukem, Jaques Cousteau, a certain 3 fishermen out to look for a certain great white, recreational spear fisherman and paranoid offshore oil rig welders. and of course the current existing npc's
I'm somewhat partial to the player being able to take out JAWS and then take on the "ORCA" and her crew.
even taking out other pop culture Icons like the SS Minnow and the Trimarian from Water world with a fast swimming mutant human being to battle would be almost a "Ready player one" for famous water movies. theres other influences like Atlantis and of course aquaman as well.

I am so here for this. I would love a sequel that goes even bigger.

I was also thinking about second game, but I thought about prequel, where we play as Megalodon and fighting with Scaly Pete`s father in Gulf of Mexico. But also with a parallel story line, where it's explained how these kind of mutants and elder creatures appear in the sea. Maybe even having ability to swim in the opened sea with some archepilago to explore.

I was thinking the game could also go full destroy all humans the game has more interesting missions like taking on underwater facilities, interfering with underwater mining expeditions, fighting off nuclear subs, fighting off an experimental human defense construct that goes AWOL, much like mecha godzilla but mecha-shark or sharktopus. taking on giant squids, maybe experimenting with battling mutated sea bass for those that were fans of austin powers. the location may change but keep in mind that many countries aside from the US, canada and I believe france? dont allow sales of games that show depictions of government failures such as pollution, shows of weakness such as beating up their military forces, inferring that their vehicles or infrastructure are inferior in any way.

i feel like a sequel as megaladon wouldnt be good for "maneater" bc the megaladon was so large it ate whales, no megaladon would attack anyone unless provoked by a boat, i feel a great white or tiger (maybe even mako or thresher) would be best, still a big shark that has killed people and also a more powerful shark (for great white), great white would also allow you to get to some large sizes and be somewhat accurate, you could get to the size of bruce (shark from jaws) or even submarine, that would be great especially if it had better optimization

A sequel would be a great Idea. Buuuuuuuut hear me out:

1. You can start as TWINS (yeah i said it Multiplayer)
2. Our Enemy could possibly mutate too. (Storyline deccision from us XYZ - Enemy takes Orca Hormones and gets a little fishier [got this Idea from Sharktopus vs Orcawolf])
3. As you guessed: Weird mutations like the Sharktopus (but again only by direct decision to do this not forced)

[D.e.v.i.OS]

yeah co-op would be cool, have a "Splash in and out" join system

I would also be stoked on a competitive/cooperative system like having buddies that have players that spawn in their world somewhere and can either help you with a difficult boss or they could just eat you if they could just because they can. (with the astorisc that the player should have options to swim through smaller areas smaller creatures could swim around and feed themselves without the concern that they will be eaten by a gigantic great white.
