Abyssal Hunt – Deep Sea Survival Game Development

Project Description

I want a high-quality Roblox ocean survival game inspired by SharkBite 2, but expanded into a deeper and more polished experience with objectives, progression, and multiple game modes.

This is a round-based asymmetrical game where survivors are on boats and one or more players become sharks. Survivors must complete objectives and escape, while the shark hunts and eliminates all players.
