A downloadable game for Windows

Post game jam version available!

Delve is a platformer-management game about a professor who, despite dangers, refused to leave their team's submarine after discovering an ancient relic. Help the professor survive for 24 hours by performing all sorts of tasks, from maintaining power in the submarine to keeping yourself from getting hungry.

The enormous number of tasks are overwhelming but, fret not! With a few cups of coffee, our professor will be sure to do things quicker and more efficient. However, beware; relying too much on our friend may cause some side effects...

Hello! Thank you for trying out Delve!

I really regret not putting instructions/a guide in the game. I'm currently working on a post-jam version that will be sure to include a tutorial, and more stuff. If you're interested, you might wanna check it out once it releases. Thanks again!
