I hope in the full version they can add a tavern where you can sit in the corner and tell would be adventures that there's something terrible swimming in there waters.

[@Welcome2Niches]

Love this idea. Or just places they saw something weird, etc. so you can go explore different areas with purpose.

[@TheWretchedOwl]

“But, surely it can’t be as bad as all that, you’re eyes must be playing tricks on you…” “I know what I saw!”

[@conq1273]

I love this trope

[@hariszark7396]

Wow....that would be awesome for a last scene at the end of the game.

[@SilverMKI]

You lurk in the darkness as the car full of teens looking for fuel/directions pulls up, waiting for your moment to shine...

[@BaronVonMott]

I've developed a real taste for Lovecraftian settings because they always have rich and detailed lore to dive into, and usually an element of mystery and exploration. Looks like this game ticks all those boxes, and is just straight up a well-made and enjoyable fishing game as well! Definitely going to keep an eye on this!

[@eccer]

To much games takes from lovecraft these days tbh...

[@robertward2830]

My man was literally rolling the corpses out of that bargain bin boat as Splat woke up on the dock and thought "Oh this is really convenient!"

[@mortalitydoesstuff8965]

this game looks cool. I'm not usually a fishing game person but this is definitely an interesting spin on it, and the style of the visuals is really nice

[@pbsixgun6]

Same.

[@Furzkampfbomber]

As long as I can't fish with dynamite, I'm not interested. :D But I love how SCG can make me understand why people might love a game that is so totally not my thing.

[@Myst-Blazeio]

I dunno if splat read comments or not but doesn't this feels nostalgic to sunless sea?! I felt the nostalgia.

[@stuartsmith1139]

Very much so

[@SV-cg3sk]

looks like a 3d sunless sea to me, VERY similar

[@FNugget]

A lot of Sunless Sea vibes, without having being built over on top of "card game" mechanics.

[@GameTimeWhy]

I tried so hard to like sunless Sea.

[@rodneya.]

@@GameTimeWhy it's a fantastic game, but I have to admit what really hooked me up was the lore.

[@minhducnguyen9276]

@@GameTimeWhy They could have remake it with a better UI and having the difficulty adjustable like sunless skies and it'd be selling hot again

[@GameTimeWhy]

@@rodneya. I agree about the lore being good but disagree strongly about gameplay being good.

[@tylerbrown9797]

@@GameTimeWhy me too but the moment to moment gameplay just isnt fun, id rather have it be a point and click and focus on the story elements that are good

[@tolsmith2344]

Splat stay out all night and sail to the edges, it gets pretty knarly out there. They did a great job with the panic

[@kmsrode]

Definitely caught my eye. Curious to see how deep it gets into the "Lovecraftian" aspect of the story.

[@grayaj23]

A navy friend of mine explained boat vs. ship. You can put a boat on a ship. You can't put a ship on a boat. Orcas,, whales, elephants, crows and octopi are people. I don't like to harm people.

[@Beldarak]

Damn, can't wait to play this game, looks like that perfect "one more fishing day and I'll go to sleep" formula

[@zenhaelcero8481]

lol Finnegan's Wake and the Wild Rover. Splatt getting ready to audition for the Dubliners

[@Seluecus1]

THE GREATER GOOD...... I love that you off-mention the last act of Hot-Fuzz. LOL

[@FluffyIFue]

Splat my man I cried every time you caught a fish and didn't think about space efficiency....

[@Doomroar]

I checked the store page and seems like stuff gets pretty crazy later on, but you know what would be great, what if as you grow mad the town and the townspeople start to look mutated Darkest Dungeon style? and the price and offers of what you can get for your boat change with your state of mind and with the ancient artifacts that you discover? Man that would be super rad!

[@shadesmarerik4112]

that sounds like a lot of work

[@hootsmun]

4:28. My eye is twitching at the placement of that 3rd Cod 😨

[@casualtommyst8415]

I laughed at the OoO-wa-a-a-ah joke at the disturbed water, thank you :D

[@jrr7031]

This! This is pretty much why youre the only game type channel i sub too. All those references you made for me are pure nostalgia. Disturbed water "get down with the sickness"; blue mackerel "if i was blue" and even this lil light of mine. Top quality!

[@Daedric_Sion]

Loved the casual "uhwahawahah" for Disturbed Water.

[@Patrick-it8nk]

"Seems like a throw it back type deal to me" My fisherman's brain went straight to "Ah well if you don't want it I'd gladly put it in my cooler". Flounder is definitely one of my favorite fish.

[@msolomonii9825]

Had me at the whole Lovecraftian, they seem to be doing a good job at that "atmosphere" the weird fishing village with the odd people who some of whom probably are having "UN-natural congress with creatures of the depths".

[@anoobis260]

I spit coffee out my nose at the disturbed joke. Dude.

[@GTAjedi]

I completed the demo immediately after watching this. Can't wait for the full release!

[@mkaleborn]

Me too, great fun! I did derp for a few seconds on how to pick up debris with the trawler... But love the Lovecraftian atmosphere. Sailing at night, and seeing that approach you out of the fog.... Good stuff!

[@tiny_green_dragon_3497]

Please play more of this. It is right up my alley!

[@Pablorovirita]

This is such a cool concept! Gah, I freakin' love this channel, I get to discover so many neat games this way

[@mercai]

I came expecting something very different. But a chill fishing game with dark aesthetics sounds good, actually gonna wishlist it. (fishlist it? sounds fishy? okay sorry). Thanks for covering this one!

[@DamsdelDrennon]

A very strong atmosphere with what looks like a well tailored gameplay loop, this is going to steal so many nights away.

[@mkaleborn]

Man this looks really cool. Another Indie gem to add to the wishlist! And I was sad there wasn’t an ‘Eye of Sal-mon’ joke when that spooky Panic meter thing showed up….

[@Null8fuenf10]

18:00 oh, I love the MBARI KZbin channel, and indeed octopodes and squids are awesome! And still my most favorite cephalopod (not only because of Jules Verne), the - in German called - 'pearl boat' (Perlboot), the nautilus; two such beautiful names, fitting for such a beautiful creature.

[@paradox0173]

Can't have a "Splat plays a boat/ship focused game" without an appropriately themed shanty or two.

[@petsdinner]

Splattercat really said, "I think before my days are done, I want to be a fisherman"

[@iansinnett1402]

One of the harvesters of the sea?

[@GameTimeWhy]

Love me a fishing game. Hope this has a compelling gameplay cycle.

[@johnnylight0]

doubt it. seems very much like a "one and done" deal

[@stevEN-es7pd]

I love the lovecraftian direction this is taking, im hoping itll also contain cosmic horror aspects, thanks for another awesome video mate.

[@matyastaller159]

Disturbed water, oooo wahahaha :-D Loving it.

[@DrayvenWynd]

Had this one on my wishlist for awhile, looks neat for sure

[@turtleofthemoon]

I love the concept of this, and the art style and SFX really hit the atmospheric nail on the head. Sadly, I think I am far too jumpy to make it through the actual gameplay so I'll just have to hope people play it on KZbin when it comes out so I can experience it vicariously instead.

[@lanceuppercut6168]

Same. The panic meter kinda reminds me of Don't Starve. Will have to look into just how spoopy it is. I would've loved a laid back relaxed version a la Stardew Valley or something. Looking forward to one called Sail Forth.

[@Dalton791000]

Thanks for the video. I had already noticed this and was hoping you would cover it.

[@cavetendobiggles1841]

The Disturbed water wahaha made chuckle

[@chriscangelosi9438]

very nice game, I like how it slowly opens up the progression and options.. definitely on my radar !

[@alexroberts3944]

This fella washes up on the beach, and the Mayor is like that's tough bud, but ya gets back out there

[@BreakTheMoldGaming]

love the art style of this game for some reason!

[@nickcarter8282]

Aww you missed a golden opportunity there Splat, right at the end... This has got you... HOOKED

[@ricardodevilee5078]

Interesting, I like the fact that the loan debt is small and not a constant sword of Damocles hanging over you

[@Malice0176]

i too enjoy the fiddly diddly inventory management...art style is really cool!

[@user-yd3jz8kk9i]

Your inventory management is freaking me out. Looks like a great game.

[@REAPER3fitty]

I thought the same shit.

[@user-yd3jz8kk9i]

Think it says more about us than Splatt to be fair 😂

[@saschaberg8406]

htanks for checking this out.Just played the demo myself and yep, onto the wishlist it goes

[@kareningram6093]

I feel you, Splatty. I've seen some adorable videos of octopuses interacting with people and it makes me want to never eat them again. Also, I love the art style of this game.

[@gabefry4974]

Very cool. Thanks for checking out a game outside your normal stuff.

[@notanaveragedoktah8390]

Cthulhu gets a rash in sunlight, so that's why you gotta come in before the sun goes down!

[@mimiaigypt2904]

this looks so so so good, i can't wait for the full version

[@SwedishTwigg]

This looked very interesting! Wouldn't mind a stream of this

[@FettaCheese717]

This game looks so fun. I can’t wait to try it out!

[@sev3nsix485]

Man this game Looks good. And looks fun to play. Love the art style

[@CarbonOtter]

You are right, sir. The difference between a ship and a boat is that a ship can carry and other boats. That is definitely not a ship.

[@rmasoni]

This game looks amazing! I'll definitely grab it on the Switch.

[@murasaki848]

Now I can't hear that word without thinking of The Witcher: "Oh Fishmonger, oh fishmonger, come quell your daughter's hunger..."

[@theastralarchive9594]

Well I certainly had fun at Tim Finnegan’s wake 😂

[@DarrylCross]

Notice how none of these villagers ever seem to blink; sure it could just be the still portrait art style, or perhaps they're all really human-deep one hybrids!

[@neilarcher2551]

That little boat is an instant smile.

[@ChristyOFaghan]

this looks interesting -- and i also have an aversion to eating squid and octopi given how intelligent they are

[@Pile_of_carbon]

This looks really cool. Will definitely check it out.

[@grimlock5990]

I'll definitely be playing this, thanks

[@Furzkampfbomber]

2:00 Glitched matrix Oliver Hardy scares me! And apart from that, great review as always. As so often I enthusiastically watch a review for a game that is so totally not my cup of tea, because you make me understand why other people might love it.

[@captainvlad]

Oh Man! I've been watching this for a couple years now!

[@FasterthanLight11]

bro... that "corrupted" fish is definitely a former human

[@Nekoyashiki-san]

Thanks for showcasing your most recent catch! 🐟🎣

[@VeXHarbinger]

lol you kill me sometimes man. @16:55 that sparkly indicator (like the bottle did, just to the left of the buoy ) went off a dozen times and you were so busy yammering on ya never saw it. I do dig you videos, don't let my comments mislead ya

[@mintlemartin4348]

Catch and release is a thing, you can still enjoy fishing. Interesting game.

[@kinghoodofmousekind2906]

Mmmh, let's see, let's see... 12:40 let the buoys hit the water! 19:05 Splatter, if you can, listen to the song The Lighthouse Keeper by Canaan...

[@Thalatash]

Octopi and Cuttlefish are really cool animals. They are really smart, too. I heard some scientists say that the only thing holding octopi back was their short life spans. I don't know if it's true, but I like them too, Splat.

[@horrigan495]

Tetris with Fish :D Awesome... Also looks quite nice

[@ImBoredToo]

17:09 Bruh those scared the crap out of me as a kid.

[@chasonlapointe]

This looks super interesting, I put the full release on my steam wishlist!

[@jacobfreeman5444]

Octopi are less aggressive than squid. Squid can and will eat you while you are still thrashing around in terror. Also they tend to hang out in groups. Octopi are more solitary and maybe will let you swim away to live another day if you don't piss them off. Thus I am okay with showing mercy to octopi. Squid should be shown the same compassion one shows mosquitos and biting flies.

[@dreamcult2485]

Really been craving something like this for mobile tbh, something about the thought of curling up in bed with a lore-rich fishing game & some sunless sea vibes is uniquely appealing to me. Probably asking for a little much but one can dream, yeah? :')

[@Safersephiroth777]

Even though this is basically a fishing mini game I like this game.

[@gri22lybear]

Just pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition of DREDGE for my PS5. I didn’t play the Demo, but the gameplay that I’ve seen sold me! 🐡

[@alldayhyperdude6441]

8:00 Seems like Splattercat recently watched Hot fuzz. Now that is a great movie. THE GREATER GOOD!

[@Fyres11]

Really like the art style of the characters.

[@O-Negative]

Very entertaining. Thank you.

[@darekbaird]

That's two open world RPG's with horror focus...Dread Delusion and now Dredge...lotta D's....Everyone like D's...De's nuts!

[@user-lk1zz6sc1n]

You sing great! To the point!)))

[@tffti7058]

love the artstyle of this game XD

[@nicolaszamudio8699]

The demo is pretty fun and engaging, I just wish it went on longer, can’t wait for release

[@DarkVeghetta]

Lovecraft AND fishing?! Yes, please!

[@TheMrDewil]

I guess that Splat is so inefficient with his cargo space just to piss everyone off. Game's lookin' pretty good, though. I hope it comes out someday.

[@blaidddrwg-ye9dy]

Also he seems to be missing how it's set in the 20s and that boat was worth about 50-60 at the start

[@wardkerr2456]

They found fossilized whale bones with the bit marks of a giants squid on them. These bone were arranged in a pattern by size, rather like a piece of art.

[@solkels_z4794]

love the art style in this game

[@RikkuAlbhed256]

I have been waiting for this. And the game has NOT let me me down! Please make it to so we can have our own town! On an island!

[@EmodChannelClassics]

this looks very interesting actually. Keen for this to come out

[@DrBunnyMedicinal]

Well, that's intrigued me. Time to go check out the demo, I guess.

[@TheInsaneEraser]

Octopi are the closest to alien intelligence we have on earth. they are sooo surreal but cool at the same time.

[@joewilson3393]

I like the fishing and salvaging mechanic in the game. Which is probably good considering it's a major component of the gameplay.

[@GaryHamad]

I love the progression despite it being just a Fishing game!

[@Rakrak1775]

dredge is actually the name of one of my favorite bands lol

[@Cosper79]

Day One purchase for me. Cant wait to play it through.

[@sleepydrifter6355]

Got the demo after watching this and its looking like Im going to have to buy the game when it comes out.
