What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“DREADMOOR’s core experience and main gameplay systems are already in place. Early Access will allow us to refine balance and polish, better understand how players engage with the game, and shape future development.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We currently expect DREADMOOR to remain in Early Access for approximately 6-12 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full release is planned to include new game areas with new adventures, additional fish species, new fishing mechanics, and further boat upgrades.

Throughout Early Access, we plan to release smaller content updates while continuing to improve balance, stability, and overall polish.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version will feature a complete core gameplay loop, one major region, the original story, and a wide variety of fish species and mutations.

After completing the available story content, players will be free to continue exploring, fishing, collecting rare specimens, and upgrading their boat and equipment.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“DREADMOOR will be offered at a lower price during Early Access. We plan to increase the price when the game reaches its full release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We will collect feedback through Steam Discussions, our official Discord server, in-game feedback tools, surveys, social media, and other community platforms. We will also follow discussions on Reddit and elsewhere.

We are especially interested in feedback on fishing, exploration, progression, difficulty, the economy, nighttime expeditions, controls, accessibility, and performance. This feedback, together with gameplay data and internal testing, will help guide balancing, polish, and the priorities for future content updates.”

About This Game

DREADMOOR is an atmospheric first-person fishing adventure game set in a flooded world. Skill-based fishing, survival crafting, real-time combat, and exploration through rotting wetlands define your journey across land claimed by sea and decay.

Take the helm of a fishing trawler and explore a world flooded by a catastrophic human mistake. Coastal regions have sunk beneath the water, and much of the remaining land has been submerged underwater. Travel between scattered settlements, catch fish to trade, upgrade your vessel, and craft essential equipment. Face mutated creatures across sea and land and move carefully through a divided world where resources are scarce, and trust is fragile.

Dozens of dangerous and rare species await beneath the surface. Scour the waters for the best fishing spots, experiment with different baits, and compete with the unpredictable forces of nature as you cast your line into the murky waters. Sort your catch and keep an eye on the hold. Sea creatures do not hesitate to devour each other. The more dangerous the prey, the higher the price offered by the mysterious traders of the Submerged Lands.

Seek out valuable resources along the way. In the Submerged Lands, scrap metal and forgotten blueprints are often worth their weight in gold. Explore abandoned buildings, caves, and shipwrecks in search of rare and useful finds.

Resources gathered across the Submerged Lands can be crafted into specialized bait, reinforced harpoons, rare medicines, and survival tools suited to the harsh realities of this world. Discover new recipes, refine your equipment, and adapt to the challenges that lie ahead.

Bring your trawler into dry dock and prepare it for the dangers ahead. Craft and install new components, shaping your vessel piece by piece. Upgrade your engine and propeller for greater speed and manoeuvrability, reinforce the hull, and keep spare fuel close at hand with a canister rack. Cut through the darkness with a spotlight, or engage the afterburner for a burst of speed when danger closes in. These and other upgrades are vital not only to explore the Submerged Lands, but also to make sure you can get back safely!

The waters and shores of The Submerged Land are inhabited by creatures twisted by catastrophe. Be prepared for real-time confrontations on sea and land – danger can emerge at any moment, turning routine expeditions into desperate fights for survival.
