Many new additions to deepsea diving center on what's down below.

First, the denizens - from a few to a whole bunch may appear any time you dive, across a fairly wide range of powers, and pretty darned powerful at that! You'll find giant sea spiders, mutant fish, seadragons, four-fin rays, and a host of others.

While below, make sure you explore carefully for the second sort of thing - treasure! This may be gold laying around on the sea bed, or gold in a chest. It may even be something that somebody threw away as trash.

Third: one of the most interesting parts is the bonus pot. As time ticks along, the bonus pot grows in size. Any dive has a chance (though the more lucrative dives have a better chance) of getting a piece of that ever-growing pot!

It's all in fun, and there are plenty of people on ships out at sea lowering their diving bells in search of the big treasure of the deep.
