Shelldiver First Dive: Region, Catch and Return Screens

Recognize the opening expedition screens and separate catch capacity from ammunition.

Before you start

Choose Ocean Shallows at 100 m, collect jellyfish with the bubble tool and return to the submarine when your load is full or oxygen is running low.

Confirm the destination before diving

The starting region panel offers 100 m and shows two deeper locked choices. Its detailed panel identifies Ocean Shallows. Confirm the available destination with the green check; a locked depth is not another selectable room.

Watch inventory and weapon counters separately

At 1:22, the lower-left inventory holds four pink jellyfish and is marked Full. The lower-right bubble tool simultaneously reads 03/12. These are different displays: 03/12 is not the number of jellyfish in the bag.

Finish at the submarine

The player reaches the submarine at 1:25 and the expedition summary opens immediately afterward. The summary lists four jellyfish and zero scrap. Use its green continuation control to return to the village.

Do not confuse a collected catch with spendable money

The four jellyfish remain inventory on the expedition result. They become stock for the village shop; the separate chest interaction collects the sale proceeds. Continue with the full opening-loop guide if you need the selling and upgrade steps.
