Hey there,

I could need some help finding a good candidate for a game name. It will be a sci-fi one, playing in the distant future where mankind had to go under water because the surface is devastated (anyone remembers archimedean dynasty / Schleichfahrt?)

There wouldn't too much light and visibility down there, so using a sonar would be the most reliable thing. It will be 2d top down - regarding the style Sunless Sea would be a good candidate.

Would be cool if that name is somehow catchy. I'm terrible in those things.

For instance what do you think about
Sonar Blast
Sonar Echo
Abysmal Sea
Abysmal Depth
Noise Signature
...

Thanks!

I guess some screenshots would make it easier to come up with a name that matches the tone of your game!

You are right, sorry for that! It's still in the planning phase. It will play deep under water where no sunlight will ever reach the ground. There will be kind of towns and stations under water, different fractions, quests to solve and all that stuff. You just have a rusty small submarine in the beginning and need to explore the world down there.

Sunless Sea sounds to me as the best one so far.
It could be interesting to twist the content of the name and merge Sunless Sea with the "Sonar ones". To express that there is a Sun beneath the sea level (that is sonar). But I can´t make it work in two words. :-(
