'I made Iron Lung the most nightmarish thing I could think of, and knowing real people are in that situation right now is pretty horrific'.
, with rescue teams racing against time to find a vessel containing five people that has gone missing during a tourist dive to the wreck of the Titanic. It is a story that in some ways is made for 24-hour rolling news coverage, with the fatalistic ticking of the clock on the craft's oxygen underpinning constant updates that all amount to the same thing: They haven't found it yet.
Some of the references are simply mind-boggled comparisons to the game's premise, and how similar it is to elements of what's been going on with the Titan and the nature of the craft . Others are black humour, such as one tweet I saw saying"new Iron Lung teaser lookin' sick" with a link to how much oxygen the craft is estimated to have remaining. Others point out that both craft can be piloted using a game controller .
"Like all the jokes I've been seeing are hilarious but also good lord nobody should have to die like that".
