History VideoGame / SewerShark

''Sewer Shark'' is a 1992 first-person RailShooter that was sold with the ill-fated UsefulNotes/SegaCD console, and shortly afterwards ported to the equally ill-fated 3DO console (with somewhat higher quality audio and videos than the Sega CD version). The game was made by Creator/DigitalPictures, the company who also made such {{c|ultClassic}}lassics as ''VideoGame/MakeMyVideo'', ''VideoGame/NightTrap'' and ''VideoGame/CorpseKiller'' with Creator/ApogeeProductions, of ''Film/StarTrekTheMotionPicture'' and ''Film/{{Spaceballs}}'' assisting. It was published by Creator/SonyImagesoft.

Set TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture, it centers around "sewer jockeys", exterminators hired to clean the sewers of dangerous mutant vermin [[SeriousBusiness using flying ships and gatling guns]]. Gameplay-wise, it's a fairly average rail shooter - mostly, it's known for being the first video game for a game console to use FullMotionVideo for its primary gameplay and for its memorable cutscenes.

* FullMotionVideo: Being a Digital Pictures production, it was all shot on video.

** If the disc is played in a regular CD player, there's a track that (likely) references Music/TheBeatles
-->''(phone rings)''
-->"Good afternoon, Digital Pictures."

* PteroSoarer: The "Crazy Looking Thing" in the Sega CD version is some sort of sewer pterosaur. The 3DO version changed it into what can only be described as a very large molecule.
