Essential diving techniques and survival tips.

Oxygen Management

Oxygen is crucial for survival underwater! Keep an eye on your oxygen gauge while diving. Once your oxygen runs low, you must return to the surface to refill.

Catching Fish and Resources

Fish Variety: Each type of fish has different qualities and prices, so aim to catch a variety for the best sushi dishes. Special Items: You’ll also encounter valuable resources like coral or treasures that can help you unlock new upgrades or ingredients for your restaurant.
• Avoiding Dangers: Be aware of underwater hazards, such as aggressive sea creatures, that can damage you and make diving more dangerous.

Dive Smart

Don’t overstay your welcome underwater! The deeper you dive, the higher the risk, but also the better the rewards. Always keep an eye on your oxygen and know when it’s time to head back to safety.

How to efficiently manage your dive resources and inventory.

Organizing Your Inventory

Storage Space: Your inventory space is limited, so prioritize valuable items, like rare fish and ingredients, over common ones. Combining Items: Some items can be combined for better outcomes. For example, combining ingredients or adding extra seasoning can enhance your dishes at the restaurant.
• Upgrading Inventory Space: As you progress, you’ll be able to upgrade your inventory capacity, allowing you to carry more items from each dive.

Managing Fish for Sushi

Sort and store fish wisely! You can store multiple types of fish in the restaurant, but make sure to keep track of what you need for specific sushi orders. Don’t overcrowd your inventory with fish you won’t use.
