DIVER

LORD OF DEATH

Developed in collaboration with researchers, The Tipping Point is a fun and educational game about climate science. You play as an arctic climate researcher and must get off the ice sheet before it collapses. On your way, you will gather and analyze data about the ice sheet, before it is lost.
