Field notes

The described controls put environmental conditions into the play loop: depth, pressure, temperature, battery, oxygen, and heading appear on the HUD, while currents, collisions, and entanglement can complicate a dive. The homepage also lists a tide feature for 72 coastal cities, estimating the city from the time zone rather than requesting location permission. App access differs from browser access: the app reserves eight of its ten sites for a one-time purchase.
