The Cave Diver delivers claustrophobic, physics-based horror

Feeling up for a truly claustrophobic adventure? Then the newly announced The Cave Diver might be right up your alley. It’s a physics-based horror game where you take on the role of a spelunker crawling through tight, pitch-black tunnels—where every movement has to be carefully planned to avoid getting stuck… and dying.

The inspiration from QWOP is clear: you control each arm individually to climb, grab, and pull yourself through the suffocating spaces, with each failed attempt leaving behind remains as a grim (and oddly charming) reminder. The game is set to release later this year, and you can check out the trailer below.
