“It was in the Great Medes Monastery, in 1412, where Martin I “The Human”, leader of an Order of the Temple and long-time resident of the island, was buried. The secrets of the Order were also buried with him, where they would be sealed in the same crypt and kept through the centuries. But two hundred years later, an earthquake split the island in two and the crypt disappeared into the depths of the Mediterranean Sea.”
This is the start of the story that will take John Sanders, the hero, on an adventure through the 10 levels that make up the came “DIVE: The Medes Islands Secret”, a Platform/Action game that is rooted on the Medes Islands, a fantastic protected natural landscape located at the heart of the Costa Brava in catalonia, Spain.

Wow, this is definitely something to watch.
this game trailer look good nice graphics it reminds me of nyxquest! ill keep eye on it!
This looks promising. I may just pick it up when it comes out.
Like Tate24 said, my first impression was a game like NyxQuest. But then I got disappointed when I saw the images. Don't know about this.
That looks pretty neat, like an old 2600 game (thinking Seaquest here).
Actually Sequest isn't quite right (that's the submarine game), more like Aquaventure which is also pretty cool.
Lookin' good. Can't wait to see some gameplay.
Aquanaut by Astrodive Games would be better. I hate teasers. They just tease me )
Looks nice! It reminds me of an old DOS game which I used to play. Cannot remember it's name though...
The screenshots look like Ecco the Dolphin.
Seems interesting though.
Sidescroller != Platformer. Not at all.
isn't there a better type game like this called endless ocean
Well the trailer was full of blink and you'll miss it'ness (Reala-ism) but the screen shots look pretty, the description sounds interesting too.
The game looks better in action.
Hmm. I'll have to wait and see some actual gameplay, but looks promising.
I love playing diving games and nitpicking all the stuff they got wrong.. although to be fair this game never claims to be a diving simulation.. so they'll get away with it...
