Are you serious? Just a few seconds in and there are hour-long timewalls?

Developer

air point — thanks for calling this out!

I'm adding a short tutorial expedition (a few minutes instead of an hour) so you can experience the core loop right away. The longer expeditions will still be there, but now you'll know what you're waiting for.

Update coming in a few days. Appreciate the feedback!

Update: This is now fixed! New players start with a 5-minute tutorial expedition instead of jumping straight into an hour-long wait.


You'll experience the full loop — dive, wait, return, read the report, meet your first creature — all within the first few minutes. After that, expedition times ramp up gradually (15 min → 30 min → normal).

Your feedback directly led to this change — thanks again. Hope you'll give it another try!
