Wozu Early Access?

„Read Before You Buy: This aquatic arena shooter features 360 degrees of fluid movement, dynamic underwater environments and "easy to pick up" fast-paced action. Dive in with friends or boil strangers you meet in the queue. Polished 2-8 player matches are complete and ready NOW! We chose Early Access so we can make Tidal Shock with you.

We know competitive underwater games typically suck. We wanted to fix this with the help of the gaming community – offer something brand new to the shooter genre. With no one to copy, we (and you) are crafting a completely unique aquatic combat and movement system and what do you know...looks like so far we’re on the right track.

"Moonray Studios has jumped in with both feet with Tidal Shock, delivering an action-packed aquatic arena that requires even the finest twitch gamer to hone an entirely new set of skills."

Early Access Roadmap:

DEPTHMATCH 07/20: Unleash your watery violence in a super competitive team and solo deathmatch modes.

REACTOR 07/20: Charge your crew to victory in the "team version" of our core game mode.

PROGRESSION 07/20: Our performance and skill-based ranking system will determine if you are a guppy or a killer whale.

CONTROL 08/20: Seasaw battles will rage as teams fight to claim multiple reactor points and take the win.

LEVEL UP 08/20: 50 levels of rewards await our pre-season players. New skins, new sleds/trails, a crazy shield taunts system and loads of player customizations.

THE JUGGERNAUT 09/20: There is always a bigger fish in the Tidal Shock pond. Will it be you?

SOLO 12/20: Bots, Bosses and Barrels of Fish. Solo players can deepen their skills in several stand alone campaigns.

WHY BUY EARLY ACCESS?: Supporting indie devs makes alternative/innovative games like Tidal Shock possible. We don't have the cookie-cutter mechanics or the big-budgets but with your help, we’ll show those big guys that creative, original games can be successful.“
