A new indie game, Squirreled Away, offers players a unique twist on the survival crafting genre by letting them embody a squirrel. This colorful platformer emphasizes crafting and exploration without the usual threats associated with survival games.
Players will gather materials to build their treetop homes while enjoying a relaxed environment. The game focuses on platforming and parkour skills, allowing players to traverse trees and collect resources. Developer Far Seas describes it as a „craft-and-thrive“ adventure, aiming to provide a comforting gaming experience.
In addition to crafting, players can interact with various animal friends, each presenting their own stories and quests. The game also features co-op play, enabling up to four players to collaborate in building their woodland empire.
A demo of Squirreled Away is currently available on Steam. While there is no official release date yet, the demo allows players to experience the game firsthand. This charming title aims to offer a refreshing alternative to traditional survival games, focusing on the joys of exploration and creativity.
