One of this year's breakout indie hits has been Dave The Diver.
Developed by MINTROCKET, The game challenges players to collect fish to supply a sushi restaurant, which involves collecting resources, crafting new items, fighting giant underwater creatures, perform quests for people and managing a restaurant. It's certainly different.
"I got the idea from a Japanese-style pub on the Jeju Island seaside that only opens at night," explains Jaeho Hwang, who is the director on Dave the Diver at developer MINTROCKET.
