Sure. Here's a concise mechanics-focused synopsis for public use:
Breath Bound
A two-player underwater puzzle adventure.
Tethered to a single oxygen tank, you and a partner must navigate a maze of seaweed, jellyfish, and sinking depths to reach the surface before time runs out.
What to Expect:
-
Shared oxygen – the tank is your lifeline; don’t lose it
-
Diver physics – you float, the tank sinks
-
Push, pull, grab – teamwork is essential to move the tank
-
Barrier types – some walls block divers, some block the tank, some block both
-
Power-up bubbles – extend your limited oxygen
-
2-player only – keyboard or gamepad supported
-
Cardboard-style visuals – layered 2D with soft lighting and fog effects
Every movement counts. Communicate or suffocate.
