About This Game

Fathoms is a 2D vehicle-based action-adventure game set in a deep underwater facility. After being broken out of a cell by a talking dolphin with an eyepatch, you fall into a labyrinthian abyss as you avoid all manner of obstacles from security systems to the inner workings of the facility, and the operatives running it. 

GAMEPLAY


In this game, you will pick up weapons and upgrades for your ship as you progress through the facility with the main goal of escaping.

Items and ammo pickups are limited (much like classic survival horror games). Only shoot when you feel you have to.

Other than managing ammo for weapons and energy for your ship's life gauge, you will also need to manage your ship's oxygen. Throughout the facility there are many spikes that can puncture your ship, making your oxygen gauge drop. Much like loss of energy, a full loss of oxygen will result in a Game Over, bringing the player back to the first area.


STORY 

In the dark reaches of a stretching ocean, bizarre and evil operations are conducted by a ruthless organization with only one single goal . . . to control. In a place where only they would know, filled with all manner of contraband in a dark lonely corner of the ocean, something sinister was taking place . . . and you have to escape from it.
