Deadly Tide is a rail shooter video game developed by Rainbow Studios and published by Microsoft exclusively for Microsoft Windows.
In the year 2445, a race of hostile aquatic aliens arrives on Earth. Four of their ships sit at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, raising sea levels continuously for 5 years until almost 88% of the surface is submerged. In order to effectively fight the aliens, the fictional Earth Ocean Alliance develops the "Hydras", one-man submarine fighter craft.
The player takes on the role of the last remaining fighter pilot. The objective is to travel through the alien-infested seas and fend off the targets long enough to complete the missions.
The game ends with the player character planting a bomb inside an alien ship and driving away the remaining aliens. However, the player is trapped inside one of the vessels, and his fate is uncertain as the game concludes.
