@Sambo made a post about it, but I think a thread for this game should be made.

Barotrauma is a 2D online multiplayer game taking place in a submarine travelling through the icy depths of Jupiter’s moon Europa. The bone-crushing pressure outside the submarine, the strange creatures inhabiting the ocean and the potentially dangerous equipment and machines on board ensure that the tiniest slip can turn the game into a chaotic struggle for survival.

  • Multiple character classes with different skill sets and responsibilities on board the vessel
  • Online multiplayer mode with up to 16 players
  • Procedurally generated underwater environments with caves and alien ruins
  • A built-in editor that allows designing and building new submarines
  • Wiring and electricity system that allows building complex mechanisms and systems, similar to Redstone in Minecraft or MechComp in SS13
  • Water physics that simulate pressure, buoyancy and forces caused by flowing water
  • Procedurally animated physics-based ragdoll characters
  • All the characters, items, devices and machines are configured in .xml files that can be edited or added by anyone

The game is really good, and especially fun if you play with friends as seeing a massive monster breach your hull, or opening a door to see a crew getting munched on by a human-sized shrimp is a ton of fun. 16 players is also a good amount of players.


it's also free

great game, a bit hard to get a grip of the (default) controls tho

the main server is also friendly and great, go give this a try (especially if you play ss13)
