With good reason. Lost in the middle of the ocean looking for a live view of the Titanic, this pseudo-submarine carrying five billionaires who had paid a quarter of a million per head for the trip, <strong>at this point there is no chance that they will be rescued alive. Even with French, American and Canadian authorities conducting a search operation unheard of to this day<\/strong>, the chances of finding them in time are slim. The ocean is infinite, unpredictable and does not care about human life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed-Youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Iron Lung Trailer - Submarine Indie Horror Game\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/58XkJzd1ZqY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is precisely what <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/iron-lung.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Iron Lung<\/a><\/strong> is about. <strong>A game developed by David Szymanski that takes place in a post-apocalyptic future where humanity has exhausted all the Earth&#8217;s resources and has to explore other planets in search of them to try to survive.<\/strong> Our main character is a prisoner condemned to death who is given a chance to exonerate himself. They will give him freedom if he agrees to pilot a tiny submarine without windows, closed from the outside, in an ocean of blood of a distant planet where they suspect that there may be resources that may allow humanity to continue to exist some more time Our protagonist accepts and there begins our journey: in a tiny submarine, only with the information of a radar and an archaic map, and at the mercy of the elements. A very similar situation in which the OceanGate crew members have voluntarily put themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That&#8217;s why it should come as no surprise that since this tragedy happened, sales of the game have increased. Exponentially<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DUSKdev\/status\/1671498543771574273\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">. According to a graph shown by David Szymanski himself <\/a><\/strong>in his tweet, <strong>Iron Lung sales have suffered a very high peak from the second half of the 19th,<\/strong> coinciding with the news of what happened with the OceanGate.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Iron Lung\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/809b9771-90fb-45c6-8ed4-ffdd49e83a23\/2706967269\/iron-lung-Iron%20Lung-icon.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Iron Lung<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/iron-lung.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/iron-lung.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In any case, this is something that the developer himself has described as terrifying. <strong>In his own words<\/strong>, he made Iron Lung thinking about &#8220;the most nightmarish thing I could imagine, and to know that there are real people in that situation at this very moment is absolutely terrifying&#8221;<strong>. And while he confesses that he thinks some of the jokes that have been made about the situation are funny and that it was all a consequence of his bad decisions, no one deserves to suffer a death as absolutely horrifying as the one his game poses.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed-Youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Iron Lung | Official Teaser Trailer\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Qi9zupYdwho?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moreover, this is not the only recent occasion in which Iron Lung has made the news. Although, let&#8217;s face it, on other occasions it has been for much happier reasons.<strong> The game has also received quite a bit of recent attention thanks to the fact that youtuber Mark Fischbach, better known as Markiplier, is set to make his feature film debut making a movie adaptation of the video game. <\/strong>With assistance from David Szymanski in all aspects of production, Markiplier will be directing, scripting, producing and playing the lead role in this quirky adaptation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Iron Lung is a game that was released on March 10, 2022 and lasts about an hour and a half. <strong>Priced at \u20ac5, it is likely that many people may use the game as a way to manage their thalassophobia, or sea anxiety, which may have produced this whole situation in many people<\/strong>. Especially since, even with its relatively simple and primitive appearance, Iron Lung may be among the most terrifying games of recent years. In any case, while the situation is being resolved, the one thing that is clear is that Iron Lung is the game of the moment. Even if it is, to some extent, despite Szymanski&#8217;s own self-interest.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Iron Lung\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-icon-s\/p\/809b9771-90fb-45c6-8ed4-ffdd49e83a23\/2706967269\/iron-lung-Iron%20Lung-icon.jpg\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Iron Lung<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/iron-lung.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--0\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"0\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\"><\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/iron-lung.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Some of the links added in the article are part of affiliate campaigns and may represent benefits for Softonic.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the same time that the OceanGate tragedy happens, a submarine game that seems to predict the whole situation has increased its sales to the beast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9268,"featured_media":236448,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","wpcf-pageviews":0},"categories":[1018],"tags":[4581,4582,4583,4584,4288],"usertag":[],"vertical":[],"content-category":[],"class_list":["post-236447","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gaming","tag-david-szymanski","tag-iron-lung","tag-markiplier","tag-oceangate","tag-titanic"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236447","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9268"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=236447"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236447\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":319541,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236447\/revisions\/319541"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/236448"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=236447"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=236447"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=236447"},{"taxonomy":"usertag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/usertag?post=236447"},{"taxonomy":"vertical","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vertical?post=236447"},{"taxonomy":"content-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-category?post=236447"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
