'Mission: Deep Sea' to Offer Multi-Touch... Swimming

We don't know a whole lot about this game just yet, but the gameplay trailer was just so damn interesting. Mission: Deep Sea is described as a 3D underwater multitouch game for iPhone and iPod Touch. According to the developer page, the premise sounds a bit like Avatar set under water:

For thousands years, mankind have trained animals for many purposes. With the final developments in nano-tech, the telepathic control of reptilians became possible.

You are the first soldier, who has the privilege of having a loggerhead sea turtle as a partner. During your various assignments you will see through turtle partner's eyes, and he will do what you wish to do.

So, you're a sea turtle on a mission. Here's the video trailer:

The game is due this month.

I am sure that there is a review already waiting to be loaded as soon as Rogue Planet hits the US app store.

Hopefully, there is more than just taking photographs of salvaged bombs as alluded at 0:27 sec in the video.

I have been looking for an interesting underwater app. Looks very cool, although I wish you could just be a diver instead of a..sea turtle.

Oh well, +1 for something other than a match 3, TD, or line drawing clone. I'll buy =)

Looks sorta like Treasurers of the Depp on PS1

Nice atmosphere, but where's the game?

I liked it until the random busty redhead came out of no where. I'm a straight guy, but she seemed a bit gratuitous and out of place in a game about a swimming turtle.

You might BE the random busty redhead. You are actually a human controlling the turtle via nanotech.

That was the first thing that popped into my mind.

This looks interesting enough. Hope it has some depth to it. (^_^')

Hmmmm... does look interesting. Hope there's a fair amount of 'depth' to the game... *whistle* *tumbleweed*... ok, sorry!

Actually, is that supposed to be a giant Dino fossil at the end?

Looks interesting - makes me think of Glyder, but you know, underwater. There's not a whole lot of depth to Glyder either, but it made for a simple relaxing game. Wonder if this will be similar? It's pretty, if nothing else.

Nice to see something that doesn't include zombies, match 3, find the item, or any of the other tired genres on the platform.

Reminds me of Glyder. This looks like a must buy for me. Very cool.

Is there additional info that you’ve come across somewhere? How can you tell it doesn’t have an actual game?

Maybe they will prove us wrong, but there are far to many pretty tech demo's that pass themselves off as games in the app store, this looks to be another one of those games. Time will tell.
