Scuba Dive 1983 Durell This deepsea classic is pure Speccy magic. You play a lone scuba diver submerging into beautifully animated ocean depths, rotating your sprite in full 360° freedom. The goal is to raid clams and treasure chests on the seabed, dodge sharks, octopuses and jellyfish, then race back to your boat before the air tank hits zero.The graphics are stunning for the era, smooth creature animations and there's a feeling of dread and isolation the deeper you dive and that big yellow octopus still scarce the heck out of me to this day.
It’s addictive, original and still one of the most atmospheric early Spectrum titles.
