An unexpected success, Dave the Diver received high praise from players. Not only for its fun gameplay, but also for its mysterious world and intriguing characters. Now the developer says the game could become a new series.
Dave the Diver will be a series with multiple games
Dave the Diver, which debuted last year and made a big splash in the indie gaming world, is set to become a series. The game’s producer also said that the series will expand beyond downloadable content with side games focusing on the characters.
Jaeho Hwang, CEO of Mintrocket and creator of Dave the Diver, said he wants to make separate games to show what each character does and how they met. This would allow the studio to explore each character’s personal history and origins.
Dave the Diver; It deals with the underwater adventures of the protagonist Dave. In this process, many colorful characters meet us. However, the main game briefly touches on the characters’ backgrounds. According to Hwang, side games can address how characters like Dave and Cobra came to the ocean.
According to the developer, one game could show Dave’s life and career before he became a diver. It could also reveal how Cobra became an arms dealer before coming to the tropical region. Hwang believes that expanding the series in this way will make possible what can’t be done in Dave the Diver.
Hwang also hinted that spin-off games could take the series in new gameplay directions. This suggests that other productions could go beyond the adventure/RPG/simulation basics of the first game.
