Click play on the video above and you'll immediately recognise those gorgeous green and black 2D pixel art visuals as aping those found on Nintendo's original handheld console.

Past the nostalgia-inducing prettiness in The Deep though is a rock hard roguelike that asks you to dive deeper and deeper into murky depths, avoiding or fighting as many enemies as you can, and refilling your air tanks as often as you can.

The Deep is coming out some time in 2015 from Funny Looking Games, and will be available on iPhone and iPad. We'll keep you updated on its progress.
