The Perilous North Development | Arctic survival game | 19th century | Lovecraftian horror

Hello everyone, we are Submersion, a small two-person studio made up of myself and my husband, Morgan. We’re currently developing a third-person survival game set in the 19th-century Arctic, with elements of Lovecraftian horror.

If that sounds like your cup of tea, we’d love to hear your feedback, especially on whether the game’s direction and tone come across clearly.

Also happy to answer questions about the game or the development process.

We Quit Our Jobs to Make an Indie Game

About a year ago, my husband and I left our jobs at a company called Creative Assembly with a hair brained idea to try building a survival game set during Arctic expeditions in the early 1900s. Perfect time to make a game studio right folks? But industry be damned, we're going to give this game dev thing a shot.

Neither of us have done anything remotely close to this before, we had no coding experience, no game design experience. We’re just concept artists… we’re good with crayons I guess?

Would love feedback from other devs. Especially on whether the game’s direction and tone come across clearly.

Also happy to answer questions about the game or the development process. Still feels surreal that a whole year has gone by.
