Project Achelois was the secret government project in 1985. Its purpose was to explore the Europa and find whether it hosts any life. This is what actually happened that day.

This is my game made for Ludum Dare 48. Everything was created by me in 48 hours (apart from the font). Uncover the secrets of Europa!

How to play

Since I did not have enough time to implement tooltips properly, this is how you can play:

Descend level

  • Drilling - Space.

Once the drilling begins, sit back and enjoy.

Underwater level

  • Movement - WSAD/arrows.
  • De/Activate weapons - space.
  • Switch between weapons - control/shift.
  • Fire - left mouse (weapons must be active).

The arrow at the top shows you the direction for your objective. You can shoot creatures and some of them turn hostile, but I did not really have enough time to implement their attacks properly, so you would have to really try to get destroyed by them. If you do get destroyed though, that’s game over.
