Hello and welcome to the Indie-DB page for the upcoming Video Game Whispers of the Ocean.
Whispers of the Ocean is a dark and gritty exploration game that drags you beneath the suns warm embrace, down to the bottom of the crystal blue sea. There, in the cold and desolate unknown, songs of torment are being sung by the mermaids, hunters on the prowl for the two-legged creatures lurking up above. Armed with fangs, claws and a voice of otherworldly beauty, driven by an unquenchable thirst for vengeance.
In this world you take on the role of Liera, a war-torn mermaid chasing after her sister. An undertaking that has taken her to a place of decay, long since forgotten by the vengeful creatures of the sea. A city whispering secrets of the past, its walls casting shadows of warning. Find her sister and take heed from the tales of the ruins. It´s a game brimmed with a haunting atmosphere, mystery and a graphical beauty thriving on violence and the unknown.
The game is currently being developed by WaterProof Studios, a group of dedicated and jolly students at the University of Skovde. The idea behind the game sprang to life when our Creative Director and Lead Narrative designer sat down researching what kinds of mermaid themed games there were out there. What they found was that most of them consisted of these pretty, PINK games revolving around dressing up these stereotypical, sexualized mermaids. With Whispers of the Ocean we at WaterProof Studios aim to show that the history and myths surrounding the mermaids are not bright and lighthearted fairytales, but tell tales about these sea creatures lurking below sea surface that are just as vicious and capable as the two-legged humans above.
We will be developing Whispers of the Ocean, or rather a slice of the game during a 10 week period as a part of a course were groups of people studying different orientations of game development get together create a game.
