Surviveal 4: Ocean World

surviveal 4: ocean world is the fourth game in the series. it was released on September 16th, 2022

The game was updated until September 28th 2022, where it was cancelled due to the engine being old, lack of motivation, improvements in skill, and overambition.

The game also received a patch on September 5th fixing a massive issue where the player could not move at all unless they used a controller.

The game also suffered from a low performance due to bad optimization and running on a web-based hosting site.

## Music

Surviveal has only 1 track used ingame, the rest of the ost is completely unused

in early 2023, mose of the ost was considered lost media, save for the few reused in certain games.

however the main developer, protogen posting, realized he had the entire ost in a folder on his desktop and just didnt see it because it was on his second monitor.

the entire lost ost can be listened to and downloaded here
