Hoi!!!
Anyways, here are some things essential for underwater games.
1. Get the background right:
Okay, look. There are only like 7 good terrains for ocean based games.
The water terrains:
- Frozen Lake
- White Water
- Grey Water
- Pink Water
- Purple Water
- Dark Blue Water
- Blue Water
And the sand terrains:
- Sand
- Purple Sand
If you are making the game based underwater, you may want to make it seem underwater. If you are using the sand terrain, place a tinted barrier over the sand on the above layer with collision off. For an average water, turn transparancy to 35. As you turn it higher, the water gets murkier.
Barrier colors for water. If you are going for dirty water, try a more brown/green water. Perfectly clear beach water? Light blue. Arctic Ocean…? White/aqua blue. Something like the Everglades? Greener blue.
If you’re making a game that is on land, but you can go in water or through it or something along those lines, you make the water have a teleporter that teleports you into the underwater area.
2. Props:
Use props such as alien grass as seaweed, coral, and rocks to imitate the seafloor.
Rocks:
Corals:
Alien plants(seaweed):

Ideas:
Some underwater based games you can make are:
- Escape the submarine
- Underwater city rpg
- Boat with gear
- Scuba Diving Fishing
Underwater things you can make:
Submarine:
This is composed of many props, such as space containers and anvils, and broken glass as the windshield.
You can also make an underwater bed, which is very easy to make. With a semi-transparent metal sign and a blue barrier and stuff, you can make this!
Fish Tank:
Made from Fish, Crab, Lobster, and Shrimp(Which, for some reason, the latter three are in the food section) emojis, copied into Text Boxes, a translucent blueish barrier, translucent coral prop, Sand and Water.
Designed by @Blizzy
Made from a boat, a bucket, a briefcase, and a scuba mask emoji.

You can also make a few jumping aquatic animals(If that makes any sense) like this(It’s not much to look at right now, just an example):
Underwater Volcano
Design By Haiasi
Using Hay Stacks and tinted barriers you can create an Underwater Volcano!
(I blend in the corn lol, also sorry if the art is bad, this was made on mobile but I tried my best lol.)
Also credit to WolfTechnology for the idea!
I took it from their pyramid guide:
Shipwreck: This is based off the simple concept of putting wood items in the water using a tinted barrier. -CD
Underwater Hallway
glass cup, metal signs, barrier(no collision)

Mechanics to add
- Breath Meter for swimming underwater! (By @ClicClac )
- Additionally, see this post by navy, talking about the atmosphere of the ocean. It’s good if you want a more believable game.
