(Now available from the itch.io website!)

A scientific experiment to increase the size and number of fish in the sea has gone terribly wrong and now the oceans have been taken over by mutant fish. You must destroy the fish and save the swimmers who have become stranded in their midst. Watch out for agent subs that will do anything to keep this a secret ... You are the SUB HUNTER!

Sub Hunter features 25 levels of sub-aquatic action, amazing multi-layered parallax scrolling, fantastic intro sequence, superb detailed graphics, varied missions including shoot 'em up levels, rescue missions, bonus levels and terrifying boss encounters.

Sub Hunter is also available from Psytronik Software on C64 tape and C64 budget disk (featuring glossy disk sleeve, label + printed instruction sheet). The game is also available on C64 cartridge from our friends at RGCD.
