Cuttle Scuttle is a retro co-op arcade game with a nod to several classics of the 1980s, including Bubble Bobble and Ms Pacman. Ah, but it's more than that- it's also an ecosystem simulator based on real life marine ecology!

It's breeding season at Point Lowly, and three female cuttlefish, Lola, Lulu and Mimi, must navigate 23 hazardous zones of rocky reef and open ocean to find cuttlefish mates, feast on prey and lay enough eggs to ensure their species' survival.

Brimming with tasty crustaceans, troublesome urchins, hungry dolphins and meddling humans, Cuttle Scuttle offers maze after maze of increasingly frantic action and plenty of surprises!

Update Log

  • 4 June 2018 - New features, creatures, threats and surprises! Face prey-tainting pollution, get totally trawled, plunged into darkness beneath a massive ship and challenged by predators like never before! This FINAL Beta version is also bulging with new inter-species predator-prey relationships... not just those involving cuttlefish. Oh and there is plenty of new music, updated art, dialogue and some bloopy new sound FX to enjoy too. Will you survive past the 23rd zone to see the special new end-game story sequence?
  • 18 July 2016 - New features include local and global hi-score entry and mid-game extra player opt-in. An 'attract mode' now plays when the menu screen is left idle. Level threat balance has been revised and improved along with some minor art improvements.
