Submarine Homesick Blues

Submarine Homesick Blues is a real-time management and survival game with tactical pause, inspired by FTL, set in a world where the Y2K bug didn't happen in 2000… but in 2030. A massive failure in legacy systems caused the collapse of the planet, leaving it completely submerged. Humanity survives in patched-up submarines, sunken cities, and technology that still works… out of sheer stubbornness. As the captain of a barely operational submarine, you must manage resources, crew, and critical systems while exploring procedurally generated regions, facing unpredictable events, and making decisions that can mean the difference between staying afloat… or being crushed by the pressure of the ocean. The game unfolds in real time, but you can pause at any moment to plan, reassign tasks, and react to emergencies. Every run is different, and death is permanent. All of this is accompanied by a 90s-era AI, complete with sarcastic remarks and a dangerous obsession with updating Windows at the worst possible moment.
