Rain World (Global) (PC) - Steam Gift

You slugcat you are. It would be best if you confronted the danger that surrounds you on your own. When a severe flood separates you from your family, you must find food and shelter while enduring terrifying torrential downpours threatening to drown everything. Explore new places filled with unusual creatures and hidden mysteries as you climb through the ruins of a long-gone civilisation and avoid the fangs of ferocious predators. Before you become a meal for something, locate your relatives!

This survival platformer, inspired by the elegance and simplicity of 16-bit classics, calls for deft decision-making to catch your own prey and escape the clutches of ravenous predators. Each hungry adversary in your way will be crafty, violent, and always on the prowl. They'll be willing to savage you or even each other. Being a little, weak slugcat, you must use cunning and stealth instead of brute power. Study ecology and use its advantages. Then you can make it through Rain World!

Gameplay

The "slugcat" character that the player controls uses rocks and spears to live in a violent, feeble, and confusing 2D world. Over 1600 static screens are passed through by pipes and passageways that let the player explore the globe in any direction. Each fixed screen has opponents who spawn in predetermined areas and can then migrate from screen to screen. The slug can swim, climb poles, jump, and avoid danger while scavenging for food that is in short supply and is used to hibernate in isolated, designated, safe chambers. The day cycle is reset by hibernation, and the player's progress is saved.

A crushing rain will pour, overwhelming the world and assuring that the slugcat perishes by drowning or being battered by the downpours if the player does not approach the hibernation point by the end of the day cycle. The slug will only be permitted to hibernate generally if it has consumed enough food. Instead, it will awaken in a state of famine, where it gets lethargic and frequently faints. When the cycle finishes through hibernation, it won't return to normal if it doesn't consume sufficient food to fill the hunger bar. Instead, it will starve to death. 

You are a wandering slugcat who lives in a damaged ecology as both a hunter and a prey. Grab your spear and venture into the industrial wastes to seek plenty of food to survive, but be careful—other, larger species have the same idea, and slugcats look appetising.
