First alpha gameplay trailer

Hello to all future Sea people!

Since the initial reveal of Aquatico, we’ve been keeping quiet, but lots of things have been happening on the development front. We saw your reactions to the showcased parts of the game and potential desires for future development elements. And we’re happy to say that many of the things correctly mentioned in Steam and Discord discussions by the emerging community were already in the production pipeline.

So the time has come to make another video displaying ongoing progress and reveal a few completely new features in the game - the first alpha gameplay footage!

A few of the highlights:

Vertical layered construction

• – your underwater city will have more than one vertical stage for building. The sea-bed level will hold the basic infrastructure, production and industry buildings, while the upper stages enclosed in massive domes will hold housing and other public buildings.

Underwater infrastructure

• – creating a city in an underwater environment comes with its own set of challenges, and to cover these, players will build specific types of infrastructure that supply the needed resources and resolve unique requirements of living in the deep ocean.

Expedition mechanics

• – being previously uninhabited, the ocean floor hides many secrets and the expeditions are there to help you uncover some of them.

There are a few more yet unseen game details in the video, but we'll leave it to you if you spot them or not!

This first alpha gameplay video should bring you closer to the very essence of Aquatico, the bedrock fundamentals of how the game will eventually play. A LOT more is coming, and we’ll keep you all updated. The main aim for us here is to achieve both a proper visual display of underwater life, as well as offering a really compelling feeling of how a unique task building an underwater city actually is.
