Developer Aggro Crab has posted a prototype version of its underwater souls-like adventure, Another Crab’s Treasure, on PC via itch.io.
Thanks to Wario64 for sharing this news.
This prototype can be completed in around three to five minutes and was just meant to show to investors. The full message from the team can be viewed below:
Take a peek at the very first build of Another Crab’s Treasure made back in Feb of 2021!
Including OG Kril and an enemy you might recognize that made it to the full release of Another Crab’s Treasure!
The prototype can be completed in about 3-5 minutes, so we better see some crazy speedruns.
What you sea is what ya get! Haha get it. It’s like the whole ocean thing again. Ok but seriously have fun diving in. Remember that this was a prototype to show investors, not made for the general public. No takesies backsies if it does not run well!!
ALSO if you somehow came across this prototype without knowing who we are and what this is, check out the finished game on Steam!
500,000 units have been sold worldwide.
The game is a souls-like title featuring the player controlling a hermit crab named Krill at the bottom of the ocean, fighting his way through bigger and more intimidating foes with the player being able to use different powers based on what object they are currently wearing as a shell.
Throughout this action-adventure, players aim to find a crab’s shell in a setting overrun with pollution and various threats. There are over 50 shells one can utilize, each with varying effects and uses. Further, as expected of the genre, there is quite a degree of challenge to overcome, though the developers did state that those unfamiliar with souls-likes will be able to enjoy this game as well.
Another Crab’s Treasure is available on Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, PlayStation 5, and Game Pass for PC and console.
