๐ Dive cycle
Your sub auto-dives, collects loot, and surfaces to sell. You don't pilot it โ you upgrade it.
โก Boost
Tap the boost button for +200% speed and pickup rate. Tap again while active to add +1 second, up to a 10s cap. Cooldown starts after it ends.
๐ง Outfitting
Spend cash to upgrade Hull, Thrusters, Cargo, Sonar, and Appraiser. Levels reset on Promotion.
๐ On Deck & encounters
Items collected this dive show in the Sub tab. Every encounter โ bonuses (Lucky Current, Mermaid's Kiss, Treasure Map) and the Shark Attack hazard โ comes from the Salvage Slot.
๐ฐ Salvage Slot
The slot in the corner auto-pulls every 15s. Triple matches: ๐ Lucky Current (2ร cargo, 15s), ๐ง Mermaid's Kiss (2ร value, 15s), ๐บ Treasure Map (legendary picks at 10ร value, 30s), ๐ Jackpot (all three, 30s). ๐ฆ triple = Shark Attack (no loot for 10s).
๐ฆ Treasure chests
Bronze/Silver/Gold chests spawn occasionally. Tap to add to your tray (next to the cash). Tap a tray chest to open โ multi-item rolls biased toward higher rarity.
โ Promotion & pearls
Hit a tier's level threshold (every 10 levels) to promote. Promotion banks pearls based on your run's lifetime earnings and resets level/cash/upgrades. Each pearl is +0.5% loot value, forever.
๐ Honors
Achievements unlock as you play but aren't free โ open the Honors tab and tap each one to claim its cash reward.
๐ Field Journal
Tracks every unique item you've ever salvaged. Empty slots are still out there.
