Dread Not

The water is dark and incredibly cold. The pressure is intense, and the stakes couldn’t be higher... After being attacked by a colossal sea creature, a small nuclear submarine is thrown into a high-stakes battle and must reach the surface before air runs out. Players take on the role of either Pilot or Mechanic and must work together to keep the submarine stable by communicating with each other, fixing failing systems, and navigating through perilous waters. Survival depends on the pair’s ability to work together under immense pressure. Failure is not an option. Dread Not is an asymmetric co-op game created by Leviathan Interactive, a studio comprised of 15 UW-Stout students, that will leave players wanting more! Play as a pair of marine researchers aboard a doomed vessel that has suffered severe damage and only has 10 minutes before running out of oxygen. The only chance of reaching the surface is by making repairs, which are completed through cooperative and individual puzzles scattered throughout the system rooms of the submarine. The Pilot is constrained to a single room and is in charge of navigation while simultaneously communicating with the Mechanic in order to keep necessary systems up and running. The Mechanic is able to move between all other rooms and must repair systems under the Pilot's guidance. With inspirations taken from real 1960’s Navy Nuclear Ballistic Missile submarines of the George Washington Class combined with the 80's vibes found in cinematic classics such as The Hunt for Red October and Jaws, Dread Not is sure to be an absolute blast.
