What is Maneater?

A dream come true for all shark lovers, who for years have been living in silent indignation with the way these majestic creatures are treated in movies like Jaws or Sharknado. In Maneater, we'll be able to take revenge. The game will allow us to take on a young shark and develop it into an unstoppable aquatic doomsday machine, a scaremonger of beachgoers and a destroyer of fishing boats.

What's gameplay like in Maneater?

We begin as a small shark, only posing a threat to smaller fish. By hunting them and collecting useful garbage scattered on the ocean floor, which will let us "construct" better Jaws or "armor," the shark will grow and increase its combat prowess. This will allow us to hunt for larger fish, fight other predators, and eventually also catch carefree beachgoers, scuba divers, and finally, the shark hunter who killed our mother years ago.
