Field notes
The mini-game uses a six-by-six labeled grid, and a miss returns the number of enemy ships in the surrounding eight squares; the interface also shows a shot count and a replay option. The site says its solo maker starts with rules on paper and adds art and sound after they work. The separate SUBMARINE 3D entry is marked as in preparation, with Windows listed as its platform and CPU or online two-player modes described.
